2025 Kawasaki KX250 | First Ride

[@cduronm]

Great detailed tech and performance description, didn’t left anything out, throughly enjoyable and informative video…

[@doug_errickson]

ML, you always make the best videos. Hands down. Whether it's breaking news or a new bike review. You're the best. 🤙🏽

[@quadcityracing]

Good updates, and looks. Should be a shootout contender, with its strong motor and refined handling

[@michellatour150]

Choice of shock spring rate also depends if they've changed the linkage ratio or, if the new shock placement affects it.

[@vitalmx]

Ratio didn't change.

[@charlesclapper8982]

Best 250 motor in my opinion

[@dennispetersen880]

How does it compare to the CRF works edition?

[@yinyangyt8749]

It’s so nice to see Kawasaki continue to make 2 strokes. It’s great

[@prestonace2448]

thats a 4 stroke, kawasaki only makes 65, 85 and 112 2 strokes

[@charlesclapper8982]

Thanks missed it

[@joshuasmith5472]

I have a few questions! How much did the bike stay the same from the previous bikes part wise, like the 21 to the 24, levers wheels and so on. 2nd question, if the map you showed us the tickle map? 3rd question. With the map tuning option for us, with putting some upgrades on the bike like exhaust and what not, could you make the bike wake up a bit more in regards to getting that spunky feeling of the 24 engine but having it still ride like the 25?

[@ljwiltshire]

When will you be doing your shoot outs for the 250's?

[@vitalmx]

In about two weeks.

[@christerstefansson3249]

But what about the sound when its reved ?

[@tombaguley6654]

Yeah, Has Kawasaki fixed the chain slide plastics yet from wearing out so quickly ?

[@herbcanter2114]

Nope

[@charlesclapper8982]

Where do I get broc tickle map

[@AntoineCS2]

[@fox13z400]

@@AntoineCS2 They literally put all the fuel and ignition settings on the screen for the guy...like wtf is wrong with people

[@charlesclapper8982]

Ok bud

[@vitalmx]

Use the KX Rideology app to insert the values of the map we put on the screen when talking about it.

I’m 6’2 205lbs. On a 23 yz250f but rode a buddy’s 21 kx250. Fit me super well for my size. Thinking about switching to this 25 KX. Are Kawi’s unreliable? That has me hesitant

[@christerstefansson3249]

That sound is a clear dealbreaker.

[@quadcityracing]

? You can’t judge sound from a KZbin video and the sound can be altered from a slip-on

[@christerstefansson3249]

@@quadcityracing i sure can. And a slip on dosent help the sound of the YZ 250f. It still sounds like a fucked pig. The 25 KX 250 sound 10 times worse than the YZ.

[@kochj0713]

we are loosing riding areas at a high rate.... sound is one way to curb that.... it does however need the work from everyone... meaning making cities not be able to LIVE with out us.... how do we benefit the areas we ride?

[@dylanp9211]

Why does it sound sooo weird sounds like crap choked up, the other 250f's sound great especially the new yz250f and crf250r this kawi sounds super turdish lol. Looks good though

[@anthonydavenport1841]

All these bikes look exactly the same now besides a different color lmao

[@thedonofcod]

Most bikes have 2 wheels and a frame Mate

Kawasaki’s have the biggest pipe 😂
