I’d rather it be rideable than a stock fire breather, personally.

I had a similar experience. My left talus was fractured in a car accident and was fixed with hardware. I ended up needing surgery again to remove the hardware and clean out scar tissue not too long after the 1st surgery. That was 20 years ago now. I still deal with some dull pain and lack of range of motion but still able to ride. You got this, Jett!

Seems to be the new internet crazy where pro athletes go inside a hospital and get a surgery and then the emotional crazies still claim the guy wasn't hurt. We can revisit some Sexton threads to see the same behavior. Chase roached his knee and then got surgery all because he didn't want to ride the Kawi. Some of the guys on here should be kicked out so the adults can actuall discuss the sport they love without the same guys ruining every thread.

I had absolutely no idea villopoto ever rode/raced a kx250. Thats a bit of lore I had never heard before. Once he explained the timeline it made sense though. The same way that stew was racing against all the 4 strokes on his 2 stroke kawi because kawi didnt have a 4 stroke yet, RV was down in amateurs at the time and in order for him to race in the 250/450 class with kawi he would have had to ride a kx250 also. I just figured he had never raced or rode a 250 or 450 until he moved...

Plenty of older folks who don't fair well on bikes anymore love the hell out of those things. The neighbor where we are staying right shows takes his out every chance he gets, and he's an old Harley dude, just too beat up for a 2 wheeler these days.

RV is playing a dangerous gane... You have to hold the ratio rite over the gas can until every last drop of oil trickles out or you will seize your engine. At least that's what I was told as a kid. 😁

My local dealer told me they are getting 10 KX-X models and 5 KX models. I sent them a message after A1 in 2025 when they released the first 2 stroke sound, can't wait to get mine! (getting the X model)

I've got a lime green boner.

Will my stack of KTM filters fit? Looks close!

Thanks for link! Very good information about the new kawi

I know its been posted in other threads but it would be actual heresy not to post it in the OG thread
