I really like the Kawasaki KLX250S. It really impressed me on the road and trail, given the displacement.

Here is one all loaded with Giant Loop bags and ready for adventure

Scott, great looking KLX. Did the suspension suffer noticeably from the extra weight?

KLX250 handled great on a 500 mile trip we went on last summer. all loaded up with gear we were still hitting single tracks and keeping up on highways (55mph highways :) Suspension was fine. bottomed out a couple times in the back, but adjusted the preload and that helped a bit.

$4500 OTD includes 6% sales tax, etc.etc.

Added: Seat concepts seat, rear rack, skid plate, rad. protectors, rear brake light, hand guards. Just over 1k miles, and all smiles on this little thumper. I guess I need some updated photos with the bags on it...
