Sick looking bike and always liked the way Kawi's looked. Love ping and his honest reviews especially about the forks. I have a 15 CRF450 and didn't like it until I put the CRF250R spring forks on it. Felt like a totally different bike. Changed the front traction and feel massively and made the rear stay planted better as well. 6K in parts alone though is pretty steep as its probably 2K more in labor.
Great looking bike, better than stock, still think the pro circuit Kx125 with updated plastics pro circuit kit is the best looking KX/ or F of any KX model though, bring back the KX Kawasaki, it’s time! Also this is why I’d never run air esp that fork omg, who wants to go through that setup, SSS KYB done and still better stock. But Bones is awesome really preps a sick bike and so is Pro Circuit👍
Ping, I bought my nfxs dragons because I saw you wearing them a while back on these videos. Love the frameless look. I just need to find some tear offs that cover the entire lens!
What’s the resell value of a bike like this? I’d imagine if you built a bike like this you’d never sell it but if you had to sell it what could you get for it
Jake C. Outdoors well i’d sell it for like 8 9 grand but it wouldn’t sell for that much it would sell at like 5k, no one has enough dough to drop on a hard ridden bike
Ian Baxley I saw JA21’s fully loaded RMZ250 for sale for like 12 grand a few months ago. It even had all the unobtainable parts on it because the team switched to Husky’s the following year so they had no use for it. I think the seller was called DocWob.
6k isn't worth it unless you're racing 450A chasing that paper and fast enough to get it. Other than that if you're Joe blow beginner, junior you don't need that
Perfect video. No annoying music. Clear and honnest comments. Great rider.
Wide000 it's not quite perfect, there is not 2 strokes in it
Thank you for not putting music over the sound of the bike!!
what Ping says about the air forks is so true one reason I still ride my 2012 kx 450.
That bike sits atop the Christmas wish list!

His style is a pleasure to watch. So smooth
The best bike reviewer on you tube IMO.
Ping Tell us how you really feel about those forks!!! That's why I like watching you no BS, BTW I don't disagree with your evaluation.

Good riding Ping. Looks like you're loving it out there
Beautiful machine minus that goddamned Monster claw. Good video, great breakdown.
I'm a 2 smoker but that bike is awesome 😎!!!!
I love the honesty about the forks. I fucking hated my air forks glad im not the only one.

Sick bike
When are the 2019 models coming out
Damn it ping now I need to go to lacr this weekend
Who's going to High Point or Muddy Creek?
Sick track
Are those flo green plastics?
Where can you buy the old full factory bikes from with all the bells and whistles
Help would be greatly appreciated
Trystan Williams go to pro Circuits website in the bottom left it’ll say bikes for sale. Just click on that
6K in just parts I only can wish
I'm assuming the wrist pin is dlc coated?

Mike Pence what if the bike was completely modified but, never ridden? How much would a fully modified new bike sell for?
Ian Baxley I saw JA21’s fully loaded RMZ250 for sale for like 12 grand a few months ago. It even had all the unobtainable parts on it because the team switched to Husky’s the following year so they had no use for it. I think the seller was called DocWob.
Casey Lee Do you think there's a market to trick bikes out and resell them fresh for a little profit?
Ian Baxley There’s a shop near me who do it but I’m not sure if anyone buys them...
That seems odd since Kawasaki says its ultra important that you fill the forks in this order...Inner, Outer, Balance.
What do they do with the bikes once they're finished testing? Return them? Sell them?
They probably return them, i'd think. It's no cheap machine with all the PC stuff ^^
Return them, clean them up, replace any worn parts, and let another rider or magazine review them. They are just there for advertising.

Definitely true.
All that and stock motor mounts, pegs and linkage, hmm
Braaaaaap
