Sooner or later is the new season here and am looking for a new bike and there is a lot of 16-18 kawis with low hours or new leftovers with good pirce. and my question how does the motor hold up? forks i know sucks ive had an 2015 kawi, probably going with the Ohlins RXF forks. has anyone been closer to the 200 hours mark with there engines ? im not going to buy a new 19 kawi.
The Shop
I just ordered the PC Spring conversion kit for the TAC forks, I have a "decent" setting and they are ok but there is just something about those air forks that for some reason only provide a vague at best feeling through the corners. I have roughly 30 hours total on my motorcycle and I really like the power, the way it feels over jumps is very neutral and easy to move around on. Normal wear and tear items, chain guide and rollers and the clutch are the only things that stand out to me, I found a Rekluse Torque Drive in the Bazaar for a great price and it is AWESOME!
I do not have any hesitation recommending the motorcycle at all!
A few buddy's of mine that have the 19 KX's are struggling to find basic parts. If they do become available, they sell out quickly and then are on back order.
