KDX22OR FEATURES AND
ADVANTAGES
Engine
- The engine is based on the KDX200 engine whose power and
durability are well proven
- Even more power and torque, at all speeds
- The cylinder head is mounted to the frame at two points to
reduce vibration to the rider
- The crankshaft balance ratio of 78% cuts vibration feit by the
rider
- The hollows in the crankshaft flywheels have lightweight covers
to increase the primary compression ratio, help low- and mid-range
power and sharpen throttle response
KIPS with Guillotine Exhaust Valve
- Gives good torque and power over the entire rev range
- Guillotine valve increases piston sealing and compression
Liquid Cooling
- The dual radiators have the capacity to handle the heat output
of the powerful engine
- The water pump has a mechanical type seal for durability
- Assures greater reliability
Six-Speed Transmission
- Six speeds provide a gear for most situations
- Smooth shifting for ease of use
- Oil level window provided
Narrow Seat
- The well-padded seat is narrow to allow riders to reach the
ground easily
43mm Conventional Cartridge Fork
- 20-way compression damping for greater adjustability
- Chamfered fork bushings and pistons help eliminate stiction to
soak up tiny stutter bumps
- Cast aluminum upper and forged aluminum lower triple clamps
hold the 43mm diameter tubes in rigid alignment
High-Tensile Steel Perimeter Frame
- Based on the KX125 and 250 frames, the KDX22OR frame is buiit
of box-section and tubular high-tensile steel
- The box-section top frame members tie the steering head
directly to the swing arm pivot, for outstanding rigidity and
strength
- The 26.5 steering head angle and short wheelbase contribute to
quick handling
- Straight line ability is not sacrificed for quick handling,
because the incredible frame rigidity keeps everything on the
straight and narrow
UNI-TRAK® Rear Suspension
- The nitrogen-filled, aluminum body, remote reservoir rear shock
has 20-way compression and 18-way rebound damping, and infinitely
adjustable threaded spring pre-load
- Temperature compensating rebound damping keeps things under
control even when the shock heats up under strenuous
conditions
Dual Box-Section Aluminum Swingarm
- The thin wall swingarm is built of cast and extruded pieces for
extreme rigidity
Front and Rear Disc Brakes
- The floating front disc brake is similar to the KX125 and
250
- The twin piston front caliper provides excellent stopping power
by increasing the effective diameter of the disc
O-Ring Drive Chain
- O-rings seal the dirt and water out, keep lubrication in for
longer chain wear
Enduro and Trail Equipment
- A headlight and taillight for really long rides or enduro
competition requirements
- An odometer to track your progress
- Large 2.9 gallon tank allows great range, but is narrow for
comfort
- Rear fender bag for tools or snacks and hand guards for
protection
- Snail-type chain adjusters for quick wheel changes and chain
adjustments
- Forestry Service approved spark arrester keeps Smokey happy
