New guy from PA

RodgerF · 10-03-2023, 04:09 PM

Well now you guys did it, you forced me to buy a new bike!

just picked up a new KPX 250 from Venom. I had it narrowed down to the KPX or the TT 250 but the current sale at Venom made me do it. The $50 off coupon still worked so for $2849 I got a new motorcycle.

I just ordered it today so I’ll post some pics as soon as it comes in. Now I need to go back and reread all the assembly posts. I also have a KLR 650 but wanted something a little lighter for trail riding at the local off road club and such but still be legal to ride on the road. From reading here, the KPX seems like a decent little bike.

I'm on the other end of the state near Pittsburgh. Far enough away though that I still have some decent mountain roads to ride.
