Hello,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Stephen I am from Ga and I just bought a new 2006 Kdx 200. This is my first Kawi and my first 2-stroke, so I am here looking for some good advice.
I have a lot of questions and I am a little overwhelmed by the break in procedure that they have listed in the manual, so if anyone can get me on the right track I would apprciate it,I want to do it right.
If there is anyone here from my area, hit me up I would love to ride with ya.

Welcome to the forum Stephen. I went thru Georgia back in February when I went to Daytona Bike Week. Nice state from what I saw.

Welcome. Don't worry about the part that mentions taking the cylinder off and checking for scores on the cylinder and using emory clotch on the piston.

DO make sure you use the heat cylces they mention, however.

If you can, try out Highland Park, as it is a great place to ride in Georgia.

Thanks for the info, I kind of figured it was a little overkill. I have been planning to go to Highland park, it looks like a blast.
