Gentle... psh I've thrown mine into trees, down slows, smacked it hard on concrete.... the KLX is a beast. It takes my noob-tard punishment day in and day out. Yeah its gutless on the HIGHWAY but from 0-45 its a hoot IMHO once you regear it.

Its good to see an article that DOESN'T bash our poor little bike in favor of the WRONG colored 250 dualsport.

I think we just changed tyres to tires to **** the king off back in the day. Canada and Australia just were a bit more laid back and kept it going with the UK. Eh, mates?
