Default New KLX 250 owner

Hi all. I'm from Newfoundland (AKA. the rock), Canada Got my KLX 250 last August. It's 2007 model that had only 575 km's on her. pretty much brand new to say the least. Anyhooo....Found this forum while surfing web with cell about a month ago (would have introduced myself sooner but typing on cell is no fun at all. I work on oil tanker so it takes me away from home two months at a time. But i also get two months home to enjoy my toys . This is a wonderful bike and enjoying her immensely. Weather around here starting to get a bit chilly. -4 degrees celsius couple days ago! mud puddles become muddy ice! not a lot of traction . Catch ya's later on the KLX 250 forum.

Lotsa torque but not much rpm.....210 is full speed! Hard to send the dirt flyin with that. Then again i guess it wasnt really designed for that..... lol
