Completely redesigned for 2003, the KX125 has received a number of modifications to further improve engine and chassis performance. In the eternal quest for more power, an increase at one end of the rev spectrum usually means a drop at the other. However, Kawasaki engineers have succeeded in boosting low and mid range power, and actually managed a small increase at the top end as well. The race-proven perimeter frame benefits from a new linkage system for the Uni-Trak rear suspension that both improves suspension action and allows a lighter frame construction, revised fork settings and an improved riding position. New 2-stage reed valves use carbon fibre reeds as last year, however, the weave direction has been rotated to a 45° angle. By increasing the flexibility of the reeds, low and mid-range torque characteristics are improved.
To prevent over-flexing of the reeds at high rpm and to stiffen them, a second layer of smaller, glass fibre reeds (also with 45° weave pattern) reinforce the main reeds. The result is the best of both worlds: highly responsive low/mid-range with the performance of stiffer reeds at high rpm. The improved Uni-Trak rear suspension system uses a newly designed link and a new operating system.

Unlike the ’03 chassis in which the link pivoted on the frame, in the new system, a newly designed link pivots on the swingarm. The advantag es are t wofold: first, the brunt of the suspension loads are now absorbed by the swingarm, allowing a lighter frame construction. The second benefit is that the shock absorber now moves in an outward arc as it compresses, rather than moving out and back in. This smoother, more stable action significantly improves traction.
