Did I read somewhere that they would change the KX to KLX? I swear it was a CR to CRF though. I may very well be making that up

I really dig those graphics...eventhough I don't typically like loud colors

 

nah they wont change the kx logo lol would be cool thou but that would require a lot of work to do that

thanks! i usually like loud things haha

 

I can't wait to get mine white.

 

you gonna take your decals off?

 

I think kawasaki released a new klx with vintage color scheme
it was called the klx final edition

thats pretty cool!

 

Yup. I was never real happy with how they turned out. Thinking I'll pick up this red kit and use the "wings", "Honda", and maybe the "Repsol" like on the CB125X concept

I like it

 

ahh i gotcha hopefully they will stick to the paint you do if i were you id buy a second set of plastics just incase it dont work out well

 

That'd be over $500 after shipping. Only been able to find them in Thailand(I guess since that's where they make that bike).

 

yikes that sucks!

 

Yup. Maybe now that it's 3 years into the model companies will start making replacements. I sent an email to Acerbis....they said they didn't have any plans at the moment, but things could change.

 

i find it odd its taken 3 years for anyone to make stuff for it... the bike seems to be decently popular and the rally alone has been taken on many cross country trips by youtubers so it should have enough publicity now that they would want to.... what about the basic crf300l?

 

No plastics either

 

thats annoying af...

 

Disregard, I forgot Phil has a Rally and not the standard 300L

 

The dual sport that I am most surprised about not being a big hit is the crf450rl. Seems like nobody has anything to say about it.

Seems like it tried to be a street legal wr450F and missed the mark.

 

according to a few videos ive seen on it the bike is very much a dirtbike with awful maintenance intervals so its rather annoying for road use but thats what ive been hearing nothing from a actual owner

 

I have been doing some reading just now because I was curious and found this

 

haha those ktm owners be somethin! tbh thou he aint wrong nothing special about the drz tbh haha but i like the old thing

has anyone given a reason to why its not more popular?

 

Seems like the Honda is a pig from the factory but once you uncork it it’s a great bike. Yamaha is great from the factory but you have to make it street legal.
