2009 Kawasaki KLX351F project bike

What a great little motorcycle. The 116 mile ride home from Tri-County Kawasaki in Petersburg, WV was a blast. This bike is probably the most fun you can have with 16hp. What a rush! It was a little cold in the mountains but it was great being back on 2 wheels.

At first, I was thinking that the front 17" wheel would be the limiting factor on this machine. It's not! The stock tires are. I'm hoping that a 140mm rear tire will fit on the back. A may also get a 120mm tire on the front. This bike is freakishly fast for it's size. It can easily runaway from most vehicles in the twisties. In a turn, I don't let off on the throttle. It turns in great and you just power through the turn, wide open throttle. It's crazy! I can't wait to hot rod this thing!

Here are the pictures!
