Ok here goes. I am almost 6ft tall & about 220 the kfx is set up for what I am guessing is a smaller rider. I felt a bit cramped on it... it feels TO ME like the handlebars are a bit low & the foot pegs are a bit high. With that said, For the ride the power comes on very smooth but as some of you know that the kfx is geared low & will do well out of the hole in a drag. Or out of those corners but the top end seems a bit slow. Going threw the woops on the gas was fine but as soon as I let off, I got bounced around. I am going to mess with the shock set up next week. The seat is also a bit hard. I sure like how this thing turns the steering is just great. Running up a 60ft sand pile you can hit the top & whip it around on a dime... as for the reverse I think that it is the best set up I have ever used, a push on 1 very small lever right by the thumb throttle, grab a handful of clutch down 2 on the shift lever & ur in reverse. Well thats all I hav for now.. I think the 1st thing I am going to update is the skids, foot pegs, steering stem & seat..

ZBUTCHER,


Hey, that is a bad machine. I am extremley jealous! How does it ride? I bought my KFX400 eight months ago, if I could of held out I would have the 450 as well. Congrats, happy riding.
