Default An unusual KLX review

Maybe y'all have seen this but I came across it last night trying to figure out my electrical problem and had a good laugh.

CleanMPG Reviews the 2010 Kawasaki KLX 250SF - CleanMPG Forums

Among the highlights -
"Think of its output more along the line of something we are all familiar with, the Prius. The KLX250SF’s 20 HP is able to propel 500 pounds of bike and rider with approximately the same power to weight ratio as that of the 2010 Toyota Prius-III."

Guys, they just compared our bikes to a Prius

When I left the dealership lot I couldn't believe how slow it was.

I'd like to see a prius on a hill climb. Or getting some air. Then it's a reasonable comparison.
