Kawasaki KLX125L reviews

This bike is awesome. My first bike and it hasn't let me down yet. It beats all the 4-stroke 80's and will keep up with a 250 trike. Everything on this bike is good except it could use a 6th gear and I'd be happy. You ask "is it worth 200 more dollars for the bigger tires?" Definitely because all that crap in trails you hit or get stuck on with the usual 125, this bike just rolls over and keeps going. The suspension on this bike is awesome. I've hit big jumps with no landing on them and landed comfortably. Yes we all know how Suzuki and Kawasaki merged but there are a few slight differences and I prefer the Kawasaki over the Suzuki, because first off the Suzuki's clutch and brake levers are weird - they bend around and 2 the Kawasaki seems to have more power (I have ridden both.) Over all good for beginner riders and people who want to step up from a smaller bike as well as people who just want a good time and good power. Show less

I got this bike about a month ago and it hasn't let me down. I've beaten the crap out of it and nothing is wrong with it. The only gripe I have is the seat is way too hard to ride for a long time and the 1st to second ratio is too short. It leaves my friend's 85 CRF in the dust and keeps up with a 250 4 stroke trike. Awesome bike for beginners and other people that want to step up from an 85, but my younger friends have trouble because it weighs more and is bigger than the regular KLX125, but they are still capable.

This bike is tons off fun for trails and off roading. It has power, but would definitely benefit from a new pipe and other parts. The bike is tons of fun and worth the money. It very comfortable, but the seat is a little bit wide for smaller riders like myself. The suspension is great; you can barely feel the bumps. Bike feels pretty light when cornering and jumping. The engine has plenty of power in 2nd gear for wheelies. Overall GREAT BIKE! Show less

I own a Kawasaki 110. It's been a lot of fun. Overall it is a good and easy bike to ride and kick over. I've had it for 1 year and the top speed I have gotten it going is about 65mph. I would recommend this bike for kids 8 through 12 years old. My little brother will be moving in to it when I hopefully get a new KLX125L and right now he is 9. Show less

I bought my KLX125L in June of 2003. It never lets me down. I take it out to the local tracks and beat most 85's. I raced it in the Arkansas Hare Scramble and had 1st but got hung up on a ramp and I ended up with 3rd. Though this bike maybe a 4-stroke but it is very fast and a good bike to race. Show less
