Unveiled as the latest entrant into the heart-pounding world of motocross is the Kawasaki Motorcycle Motocross Series KX 85 2023. Kawasaki has outdone itself once again, offering a fine blend of high performance, aesthetic appeal, and modern engineering that creates a ride like no other.
This is not your ordinary dirt bike, but rather a near advanced piece of machinery that boasts a comprehensive list of features including 6-Speed transmission, a factory-inspired styling, Dunlop MX33 tires, a high tensile steel perimeter frame, adjustable 36mm inverted cartridge forks, front and rear disc brakes, a 17" front wheel and a 14" rear wheel and an ergonomic design with a 6-position handlebar mount.
Echoing Kawasaki's commitment to high-performance, the liquid-cooled two-stroke engine has an impressive displacement of 84 cc. To ensure seamless power transition, this motocross bike is fitted with a 6-speed, return shift gearbox with a wet multi-disc manual clutch. Kawasaki has upped the ante with the KX 85's performance capacity with a compression ratio of 10.9:1 at low speed and 9.0:1 at high speed. The frame is of high-tensile steel perimeter design with a subframe member, providing a perfect blend of strength and lightweight responsiveness.
One impressive feature is the adjustable suspension system. The front end carries a 36mm inverted telescopic cartridge fork with 20-way compression damping, and the rear end is outfitted with the Uni-Trak single shock system with 24-way compression, 21-way rebound damping, and adjustable spring preload. Both ends offer 10.8 inches of wheel travel, giving the KX 85 an incredibly smooth and controlled ride even on the roughest terrains.
The impressive spec-sheet extends to the braking system too. The versatile Kawasaki KX 85 features a single 220mm petal disc with a dual-piston caliper for the front brake and a single 184mm petal disc with a single-piston caliper for the rear brake. These ensure reliable stopping power and excellent control under all conditions.
The KX 85 is a sight to behold with a radiant lime green color choice. And with a ground clearance of 11.4 inches, seat height of 32.7 inches, and a manageable curb weight of 165.3 lbs, the KX 85 is a perfect choice for both amateur and professional riders. It comes at an affordable cost, with an MSRP of $4699.
All dramatic adjectives aside, the Kawasaki Motorcycle Motocross Series KX 85 is a testament to Kawasaki’s engineering prowess, a clear reflection of its commitment to quality, and the acknowledgment of the fact that performance, speed, power, and style matter the most. With the introduction of the KX 85, Kawasaki has emphasized once again that it always listens to the pulse of its riders and delivers just what they desire.
Happy riding!

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
