Kawasaki KX450F Upgrades
Do you own a Kawasaki KX450F? Then you'll want to know how to make it handle better.
This article previews the new 2012 model. And it's quite a difference. But it also shows that with a few choice upgrades, a 2011 model can be a nationally competitive race weapon.
With all new and more adjustable ergonomics, a slimmer chassis, better shocks and some tricky electronics (including a launch control system), the 2012 KX450F is a real step up from previous models, and the best package they've made in years.
But if you have a 2011, don't despair.
You can get it to turn in harder and faster for tight corners, handle rougher tracks and improve the ergonomics dramatically too.
With the right mods, the older bike can still be the better bike.
