kx5 V.S. xr650L

(1/3) > >>

b0dem:
This guy up the street has a 93 xr650L on/off bike. He swears up and down that his bike will take my kx5 all day long. I havent ridden his bike, but I`m not really sweating him beating me too bad. What do you guys think about it, and also has anyone put the kx5 against any street bikes in the 1/8 or 1/4 mile?

Arigato:
Race him for titles and you'll have a 2nd bike to thrash around on....

air:
Hed beat you to the end of a 2mil straight stretch but thats about it

steeldust:
According to what i researched and been told on this site is that the kx 500 won the baja 1000 9 straight times and then withdrew from it after there rider was killed in it.  I say thats pretty darn good for a motorcross bike. 

2004 XR 600              2004  KX 500
H.P.       61               H.P.      65
Weight   277              Weight  220

Do the math The KX has 4 more HP and weighs 57 pounds less. The only thing that could offset this is if either of the bikes have been modified.  I also looked up the 93 xr 650 and i could only find the xr 600 made in 93 which had 46 hp.  So i just compared the 2 bikes at the same years.

The bike is going to have lower gearing then your KX tho and in the long, long run will beat you. Unless you got your bike modded for street then its def gonna win. Is he talking about beating you in dirt or in the street?
