After a 12 year absence from motorcycles
Posted: 09:37 am Sep 18 2007
I have a quick question that may result ( I hope) in long detailed answers.
I have an 04 KDX22R. Now why is there so much info on KDXs up to about 94 or even 03. I know they are no longer making them, but even as far as aftermarket upgrades go it seems that the newer years are really limited in what is available. That even seems to apply to tips and tuning tricks.
I've also looked at the spec sheets for the KDX 200, KDX 220 and the KDX 220R . What is the difference between these bikes other than displacement. Suspension? I've literally gone over the specs side by side and the only thing that Kawasaki lists is the engine being a bit bigger on the 220. What is the "R" in 220R?
These seem a bit trivial, but I'm simply curious.
I'm also planning on upgrading here and there as time progresses. I've already done the aftermarket levers, handlebars, air filter, picking up some new brush guards today ( stock plastic is okay for guarding against little stuff, but big trees will still smash the hands). New pipe is in the works in the near future. I'm looking at a Pro circuit. Anyone have any recommendations. I've heard the FMF tiorque is a good pipe for the 220. Then again, most of the info I read about is geared more towards the earlier models.
Any if would be greatly appreciated.Thanks
