Hey Tracey,
The KX250F is a sweet bike. Can you give me a little more information on the symptoms? When you kick it over, does the engine turn freely? Have you ridden it lately or has it been sitting? Does the bike have any visible corrosion, or has it been in a garage with little to no moisture or humidity during storage. Do you have the engine decompression start assist on the bike and is that working properly? Just help me with some answers to these questions and anything else you believe is relevant so I can point you in the right direction more efficiently. :)
Thanks
Dave

odds are your your intake valve lash is tighter then spec or gone.
check that first

Just call your local Kawasaki dealer, or any Kawasaki dealer, and give them the VIN number and they can look it up and tell you EXACTLY what the bike is. If you call a local dealer they may know the current owner and the bike's history.
Simple thing but easy to overlook. Could I get a 4 diamond rating for this solution? I am 3 short of 100 correct answers. Thanks!

If the bike is in neutral and is hard to kick and no piston seize exists, the only other sources for resistance other than compression would be the main bearings and rod bearings, OHC caps, oil pump and water pump. I mention the two pumps because there is a slight possibility that a partial hydraulic lock could be occurring due to a plugged line.
Have you checked the gearbox oil lately?

There might be chi zed piston or broken rings or valve seal. Check all the three and spark too.
