Javier, Yes they do. Back in the early 1970's, man invented fire. No just kidding. I rode a Kawi kz175. Great bike. Used to take it to Mexico for dirt riding. Used it for street riding also. Did a couple of stints on the fwy, however, it was pretty well tapped out at speed. I miss that bike. In fact, I've been coveting a new klr650.
Thank you, Ross M.
