It could be genuine or maybe someones bitza.
I seem to remember that Kawasaki America put together a KDX420 for the ISDT. Hmmm.
If it is genuine $225 is a bargain. Even as a parts bike its a snap at $225. Pity it in the good old US of A ::).
-
I know USA had KDX models we didn’t have but I cant remember if there was just the 400 and then they went to the 450 or if there was a 420 in between. Im sure it wouldn’t be too hard to import it over here and get some sort of rego on it for Vinduro use. i just thought someone may be interested in it.
-
They were in US-KDX 450s, in fact both 80 and 81. The KX 420 was a shitbox, not usre of KDX-likley pretty damn good as KDXs are.
-
Yeh single year 1981 KDX420 in the US...check out the KDX history here....very helpful site too..... :)

i knew there was a KDX 420. the 1980 twin shock 250 would be so rare
-
And maybe the KDX400 twin shock too.....what a ride!!!!! :o :o
-
There is a nice KDX450 on it's way to Oz now. I beleive it may end up being for sale as the importer is not sure if he will do any Vinduro's next year.
Cheers,
K

Shoreline had a twin shock 400 for sale about a year ago, wonder where it enden up.

That bike went for a song!!! Somebody got a great deal. I hope it went to someone who will appreciate it and care for it-not ending up in a gravel pit.
-

thats a special bike, wouldnt be too many of them here. its about a 79/80 model
-
Yep 79 or 80. The green frame on the ebay one aint right...all i have found on the Net had black frames.
Shame it is missing the headlight....will be interesting to watch this one.....
-
yeah they had black frames. i have a couple tests on this bike and the twinshock KDX 250. They got the big bore KDX's in france as well but didnt get the PE400 ??? i was told France didnt get the PE 400 because their enduros were tight terrain and there was no need for big bore PE, but i dont know why they still got the KDX 400/420/450 ???
-
