That is a great but funny article... this is my favorite part...
But for the rider who has not yet adjusted to the peculiarities of rear-wheel spin and unavoidable tire-slip, for the guy who's happiest when both tires are on the ground, the KLX will be just what the dirt doctor ordered. That kind of rider won't care that the power pulses reaching the rear wheel are more like dull thuds than minor earthquakes. Instead he'll be tickled pink that none of those conventional four-stroke performance standards are relevant to this Kawasaki, that he can finally straddle a real off-road motorcycle that isn't intimidating but handles well enough to forgive his frequent mistakes.
This describes what has happened in modern motocross! Easy to ride, expensive, high-revving, throw away machines that inspire confidence for the rider, yet suck out a great deal of the fun factor...
Nice find JETZcorp!
