Ok, I ride Yamaha now but used to ride Kawasaki's in the 1980's (KX500) so hopefulley I can post here :)
I've been keeping my eye out for the KLX450 since its press release. This is the first ride impression I have read.
Has anyone seen one at a dealer yet? I am most interested in how heavy/tall the bike feels. Thats my issue (I am 5' 6") with the WR and the CRFX is the height/weight (also one reason I like my YZ250, light and narrow so height isn't as much an issue).
If anyone has physically sat or ridden one it would be interersting to hear your opinions (and how they compare to Dirt Rider) on weight and seat height.
