2023 KAWASAKI KX450

Building Your Own SR

The 2023 Kawasaki KX450SR is a great bike, no doubt about it, but what if you want to build your own SR? What if you want to use the parts that you like in order to build the KX450 of your dreams? This is what Rob Healy did to his 2023 KX450. Rob enlisted some help of his industry friends to build the ultimate vet machine for him! He was looking for more low end power that is ridable and smooth as well as a suspension package that was plush. Oh, and don’t forget that as a vet rider, you are now required to dress up your machine accordingly.
