last weekend i went out to this guys house who had a recon for sale in the paper. anyway it was a 99 for 2900 ok when i got there he had atv all over the place.. i forgot about the recon and saw a 94 bayou instead 220 model perfect for the wife to putt putt . anyway he said 1900 it was very clean and had new tracs on it all the way around. i rode it and bought it .. than he says my brothers mojave is for sale if i need one its a 99 red frame etc... anyway this thing had been riden maybe twice thats how clean it was he says ride it and tell me if you like it i said ok than went up the dirt rode which was soft. we live in the desert apon comeing back he said no you didnt ride it correctly and i said say again you have got to let this motor work and shell pull good i said ok.. so off i went oh man i used to ride two wheelers long ago but was i supprized when that thing started to go it almost felt like a two stroke i was totaly suprized. so ill be heading out to pick up the bayou and i think ill offer him the 2700 for it ... ill keep you posted...ps.. where just getting into this sport so i guess ill be looking for a trailer soon.and of course the rideing gear..southern utah here we come .......fishing poles in tow.thanks for all the great post on this forum and the people at kawasaki for makeing a nice product... Jim.

 

The only one I have ridden was an 88 basically stock and it drove like a tank...

 

I've owned two of them ('87 and a 2000), and I like 'em a lot. They're not "tanks" at all, as they are fairly quick and maneuverable (due to it's short wheelbase). Keep in mind, the Mojave is not a MX bike. It weighs close to 400lbs and the short wheelbase makes it kind of squirrely at high speeds. But if you are looking for a play bike that is quick and handles well, I don't think you'll go wrong with the Mojave.

 

well thank you i called the guy up this evening and he took the 2700 so im going to get the trailer and go up and get the 220 and the mojave on friday evening. now ive got to get outfitted with some rideing gear. Jim.
