The 2003 Kawasaki KFX250 is a great ATV created for motocross racing, but it can serve as a good beast for beginners, as well. In the hands of the skilled rider, the KFX250 can be a fierce racer, thanks to its torquey 25 PS engine. But there's more than sheer power to this quad: it can also be ridden with a lighter hand and can be a great source of fun on forest trails and other rough terrains, doubling as a nice leisure vehicle.


The robust construction offers great handling and a confident riding experience, while the firm suspensions and generous ground clearance make getting past obstacles a much easier task. The kickstart means you don't have to worry when racing in the middle of the forest: the KFX250 will start anywhere, plus the absence of the electric start system means less weight.
