Description
The Excel Takasago aluminum alloy rim is the benchmark in off-road racing rim technology. Every Excel MX rim is engineered and designed to perform in extreme hostile environments where other rims routinely fail. In fact, Excel has won more Motocross and off-road championships - worldwide - than all competitors combined! Part of the secret is in our exclusive 7000 series aluminum alloy which has a 50% higher yield strength than our competitor's 6 series aluminum. Also, exclusive know- how in extrusion design, complex multi-step forming, advanced robotics welding, and in hard anodizing such a tough and complex material is key to Excel's strength and world market dominance. They are the choice of all Factory Works and Privateer Teams worldwide and the choice of OEM builders such as Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki and Yamaha.
FEATURES
- Anodized aluminum construction
- Available in many anodized colours as listed

Kawasaki KDX220 Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (1997-2005)
The Kawasaki KDX220R, produced from 1997 to 2005, is a renowned off-road motorcycle designed for trail riding. This robust model features a liquid-cooled, two-stroke, single-cylinder 216cc engine, equipped with a 33mm Keihin carburetor and the Kawasaki Integrated Power Valve System (KIPS). It delivers strong low-to-mid range torque, making it an ideal choice for challenging terrains. Throughout its entire production run from 1997 to 2005, the KDX220R was offered as a single trim model. There were no significant mid-cycle generation or engine changes; any updates were primarily cosmetic, such as graphics or minor color alterations. The core design and specifications remained consistent. FAQ:
