this one runs great, goes fast, I can legalize it, starts first kick, requires little maintenance, and starts easy. it is a blast to ride!!!!

I love it.
do you ride on trails, or just the street?

i have some trails behind my house. and i go with my friends to ride on the river every once in a while.

Sorry about that, didn't mean to offend you. i ve never ridden an older kawasaki. i know modern kawasaki bikes aren't the best. i think hondas are the best. i have an old honda ct 90 and a new honda crf 100 and both bikes are great. if anyone is thinking about a new dirt bike that isn't too big i would suggest a honda crf 100f.

that's okay. sorry I freaked out on you. hondas are nice bikes, probably the nicest new ones other than KTM's, but the old kawasakis were bullet proof. (really strong, reliable, and quick). how fast is your ct90? crf 100?

hmmm, cant see a pic......
could you just post what model the bike is, and I can google it? sorry, I'm just curious. :oops:

my ct 90 has 4 speeds and has no clutch and the speedometer goes up to 80. i haven't been able to ride it as fast as i want to. the fastest i ever got it to was 35mph on my street in third gear (i live in new jersey USA where EVERYTHING is illegal and i cant ride it on roads.)

my crf 100 has a clutch and 5 speeds. im guessing my crf 100 goes faster than the ct90 because its bigger and newer but once again, i haven't been able to ride it very fast because of where i live. i have ridden a few trails with it though, its powerful and great for jumps.

yeah i no, but the ct 90 is more of a street bike i don't think is would do well on trails. i ride my crf100 in dirt. its great for jumps works well in thick mud and on dirt and sand as well.

but, I might not have to, and everything might be fine.
