Hey everyone thanks for letting me join. I am a new rider, started riding on September of 2016 and my first bike that I purchased was and is a 2015 yamaha r3.

My recent purchase is not a kawasaki by name but is a kawasaki at heart. It's an imported bike from Japan called Suzuki 250 SB from I think 2010-2014. I don't know much about it but I guess in Japan suzuki and Kawasaki are building bikes together so it has suzuki branding but it has a kawasaki klx 250 engine. Got it for a great price, bad news is I need a whole top end as in head with cam, valves, everything. It had a big bore 331 cc kit on it and a Yoshimura TMR-MJN 34 carburetor which is really cool but I guess really expensive and nobody works on them here in the United States.

Anyways stoked about my new project and can't wait to learn more about Kawasaki and their bikes.

 

Welcome to KF. I am sure that you have by now migrated to the klx section. What was wrong with the r3 that you got rid of?

 

I still have the R3, I have always wanted a dual sport and this deal was too good to pass up since it was street legal and a supermoto.

 

Right on, I am jealous. Congrats
