    I ride a KLX250sf and have been a fan of My China Moto for some time, lurking and reading the posts. Now being a member I can also see all the motorcycle pics.

    Watching the Chinese motorcycle industry grow will be very interesting.

    Dear Motofan,

    Welcome to MCM. So how about posting some pix of your ride. No harm in it being Japanese. We've got some factions here in China who are claiming Okinawa is part of China anyway...

    The day may not be too far off that Kawasaki start making that KLX in China. The big Japanese brands are starting to make some interesting moves in China.

    cheers!

    I need to get batteries for my camera then I can take some pixs of the KLX.

    Some china made Kawasaki bikes would be nice.

    I like the KLX250SF, I have seen online publication underrate its hp, the bike has 17kw, that is 23.12hp.


    These are the actual ratings for the models from the manufacturer.
    Model=======Engine Code======Engine - cc=========Rated Power==Power Units
    EX250J8=====EX250JE=========249===============24== =======kW
    KLX250T9====LX250DEA========249===============17== =======kW
    KL250G9=====KL250GE=========249===============15.5 =======kW

    I did not know the KLX has 23 hp because I had read somewhere that it had less. Thanks for the information.

    The KLX is fun to ride. Hopefully Kawasaki will sell more of them in the US market. (Last year sold is 2010.)
