Not on the ‘23. Kawi is good about fixing any issues that come up and your ‘21 has been perfect. Go for it.

Your KX250 was corrected before getting to you. I don't think "recalls" is what your looking for, rather "reliability".
I love my '21 too. It will be hard to get away from Kawi's after this one.

Go get the bike and enjoy it! The kawi's have been very reliable for the last couple of years.

The changes are pretty small. Slightly smaller valves, longer header, different airboot. Those are pretty hard to screw up.

Save your old pipe. Fast guys in Sweden running the old smaller diameter head pipe. Less bottom but really runs good on top.
Have they solved the clutch problem?

Yeawh. No recalls? No known issues?

Constant problems. Not that many hours on it. Don't race. Old ruder getting back into sport. Let me say we have some 2003 and 2007 bikes that have no issues and take abuse. The Kawasaki started messing up after 2 rides. The maintainance schedule is insane to stay in warranty. Expect 4-6 hrs or work or $600 at the shop every day you go ride. Starting issues and then the recall came out and we are like great! It's fixed. No it has motor problems or the fuel pump issues messed the rest of the parts up. We have a defective limited gear in the motor. I don't see a recall on it yet. $8k and I'm ove it. Can't wait to get something else. SO SICK OF A BIKE LESS THAN A YEAR OLD SITTING BROKE DOWN IN SHOP.

Probably the same clown that posted pics of his new Kawasaki coming with an undersize bushing in the suspension. Too bad the bolt would never fit into the bushing he showed. LMAO!

Not sure why they seem to pick on Kawi all the time.

Everybody at the track loves them. The weak link is the forks that may or may not suit you. Your favorite suspension guy can make these bikes near flawless.

I just checked on K-dealer, There is a campaign for the fuel pump on certain vin #'s. Not critical, It is a hot start issue but there is a campaign on it.

Campaign : mc23-01
