I've been looking at Predators then saw the Outlaw and decided to wait. Meanwhile I came across a great deal on an '03 kfx400 and decided to buy it to tide me over for awhile. I can see why everybody loves this bike! Handles great and is extremely quick. The previous owner dropped a tooth on the front sprocket, I was surprised how well it lugged around in first gear thru the slow stuff. Some posts say this motor doesn't like low rpm's. Obviously I did a search on the '03 frame problems (front shock towers), either this is a later '03 where the problem was fixed or it hasn't cracked yet. No signs of rust or cracked paint, etc. Anyway, I really like this bike and coming from my trusty 300EX to this is a world of difference.

 

Cool. You just reaffirmed my belief that you can always gear these sport quads down if you need better slow speed power. Glad you like the Kawie.

 

I haven't geared our down yet. However a friend did it to his and it does make a world of difference[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I think the cracking on the '03 frames were effected "if" you did a lot of jumping and hard landings. They are great bikes[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Gear em down. Youll LOVE it. Its sooooo much nicer now. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
