Woohoo finally got myself a KDX.

Post by SaskBob »

Hey guys, I've just picked myself up a 1989 KDX200 for $800 Canadian. It's not in the best of shape, but it runs okay it seems, not sure if the previous owner who was 14 years old really knew what he was doing in terms of maintenance (Lots of tie wire, wrong bolts, zip ties etc) so I'm not sure about certain things I hope to ask here. (Just bought the cyclepedia online manual for it)

I have a big ass KTM 690 E which is a bit of a handful on single track, but I love the bike otherwise. But from riding my daughters KLX140L I know little bikes have a lot going for them in the trees which we have a lot of in North Saskatchewan.

Glad to see a dedicated forum like this.

Congratulations and if you have been manhandling a 690 through single track then the KDX will feel like a mountain bike with an engine!

Nice. I have an 89 that was purchased as a basket case. After a lot of time and a bit of cash It's a great machine that never lets me down. Welcome to KDXRIDER!
