I got myself a nice tail bag for the KPX and Vulcan S. This thing is huge. I picked it up from Nicecnc I see they have 15% off right now. They have some real nice stuff.

If you do decide to buy one, then you can save a few more bucks by using Jerry's code, "JerryHawk 250", and save $50.00 bucks, but I have gotten a few emails from Venom over the past couple of days, and the are having a black Friday sale, and there is a code " BLACK FRIDAY 2023",to save $100.00 , but you probably can't use both codes.

That's a good price. You better grab it. Well worth the money.

I paid $1800 and change for my carb'ed Hawk 250 and I'm very happy. It needs better parts here and there and some mods, but I'm ok with tinkering. At the very least you want to check oil and tire pressure before you ride. Good luck with that KPX and be sure to come back and post up some pictures and videos and let us know how you do with it.

Bought the KPX 250 today. It's Jerry's fault. I don't know him, but I watched his YT vids.

I'm blaming you Jerry.

XMAS100 = $100 off. I used that code today. Should be here soon.... getting ready.

I'll take the blame. My wife will blame me anyway. lol

Has anyone financed through the Venom website? What was the experience?

I'm sure people have but i would check what there finance rates are. You might get a better rate at your local bank. I think Payal Credit offers 12 month interest free.

Hey, quick question:

Might have an opportunity on a used (2023) KPX 250 with just under 1000 miles on it. Looks like its still in great condition.

What would be the top dollar to pay on it?

Probably around $2600 with that low mileage.

A dealership? Are they willing to work on the bike? This is definitely a better deal on a great bike compared to the price of the SSR.
