    Is a Kawasaki kx250f good for a 15 year old male at 5'8? Also as a beginner

      you’re barely tall enough for it, but if you think you have what it takes, then go for it. i wouldn’t underestimate a 250 but don’t over estimate it either.

      They've been selling things to people who CAN'T POSSIBLY UNDERSTAND THEM, for a long time.
      A professional racing bike is NOT APPROPRIATE for a 15 year old.
      There's 50 years of bike evolution that's gone into that bike.
      15 year olds have no clue how to tune a bike, let alone tune a 50 years evolution race bike.
      How about getting some education about bike history and riding history, first.
      He's got to learn about riding on circle race tracks, then graduate up to riding on oval race tracks then complex race tracks.
      He's got to learn about tuning the bike for flat circle tracks, then graduate up to tuning the bike for oval track riding, etc...
      If he doesn't get help with education, he's assured of hurting himself real bad on any of the 2023 style race bikes.

      ​@@Gma7788we need more people like you at the dealership. Thank you for your genuine imput & i agree A 15 year old boy with no experience and who doesn't know how to properly wipe his ass yet should be starting out on honda Crf125f 4 stroke.

    Dude!
    Go back to basics and realise your riding technique is a technique that is VERY LATE at braking for corners and very late to accelerate out of corners.
    Your suspension is Absorbing the jumps and you're not at that level of riding ability.
    Stop you bike from Absorbing jumps and STIFFEN THE SUSPENSION settings.
    Forget about the jumps and concentrate on the flat track.
    You must realise half a straight is for slowing down.
    Once you get past halfway down the straight, you begin braking.
    When you get to the beginning of the corner, you apply throttle.
    You're riding Kawasaki and Kawasaki is mid power performance.
    So when you're halfway round a corner, you're supposed to be at half throttle.
    Every corner is important.
    You tune the bike so it handles every corner at half throttle, mid corner.
    You MUST STOP doing late braking and force yourself to BRAKE EARLY for corners.
    You MUST STOP doing late acceleration and accelerate at the beginning of the corners.
    You MUST HIT MID THROTTLE midway through a corner.
    Acceleration happens from mid throttle to throttle max.
    Zero throttle to mid throttle ISN'T ACCELERATION.
    That's just getting up to speed.
    Acceleration begins at HALF THROTTLE.

      Dude! I appreciate the advice. As you can tell from my videos, I am still new to riding on an MX track. This was my first summer really. I only rode the track a few times last summer. Your advice is correct, and that is what I know to do in my head, but like anything, it takes practice to develop the confidence and put it all into action.
