Just got back from a quick ride with my Son. We rode to the fishing club pond. And it looked like a good time to take a pic

LOL, The chain guard is pretty flimsy so I think its contacting the chain.

It might just take a little bending of the mounting tabs to adjust the clearance.

Now you two are going to have me listening to see if mine rattles now. lol I was looking through pictures I had taken of the bike and looks like my chain runs center of the chain guard. It might need a little tweaking to get the chain centered.

I had mine tested and inspected at Venom Motorsports and I think it was worth the extra for it. Normally I would be inclined to save but I wanted to maximize riding time and that is the case.
I don't hear anything that I shouldn't. I will say that the engine does have the classic Chinese small engine lawnmower motor sound effects pack installed in the ECU so I think a new muffler is in store for me, maybe something from Kemimoto. It gets hot too so I'm gonna have to copy Jerry and do that oil cooler. I also promised my lady that it was money saving time Edit: I went to inspect the bike again and saw what you guys are talking about with the chain guard

Thanks for pointing out the melted reflector. I'll have to see if mine is getting messed up.

That's happened with every new bike I've bought.

I took those rear reflectors off of my X-pect. Made it much easier to mount the license plate. Probably do the same with the KPX.

St Louis just got record breaking rain and flooding, but the timing was off. Unless it was a warning to me personally to not buy the KPX.

Jerry do you think the oil cooler you used on your x22r would work with the kpx?

Yes, but I would install it like I did on the KPX and not like on the X22R. I wouldn't use the adapter. I would hook up direct.
