Overview
The Kawasaki KDX 50 is a minibike produced for 2005. Its 49.0 cm³ single-cylinder engine makes 5.4 hp (4 kW), and the bike has a dry weight of 38.1 kg.
The automatic transmission and clutch handle gear changes without a manual clutch. The 2.00-liter fuel tank holds a small amount of fuel, so refueling will be more frequent; two-way height adjustment at both ends lets you alter the suspension setup.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Very light
At 38.1 kg dry, it should be easier to maneuver at low speeds and move by hand.
Low seat
The 480 mm seat height makes it easier for shorter riders to reach the ground.
Things to consider
Drum brakes front and rear
Both wheels use expanding drum brakes rather than discs.
Small fuel tank
The 2.00-liter tank means more frequent fuel stops.
