General Comments

I am a woods/hare scramble rider and have never ridden a bike with this much pure speed. My Kawasaki KX 500 has a Steahly flywheel weight (A must for riding in the woods). It is a great bike and is easily the best dollar-per-hp deal you can get. You can make those guys on expensive 4 stroke 450s look like they are standing still. I love this bike, it lugs perfectly in the tight stuff and can climb anything (Which can be a problem because if you do not make the hill, you cant blame the bike) and goes faster in the woods than you need to go. I know it isn't for everyone but it is the perfect fit for someone who likes the extra power and is a little larger. I am 5'10" 200lbs so smaller bikes tend to be a bit soft.
