[QUOTE="john_bilbrey, post: 724242, member: 40519"] I have an '03 220. I also ride exclusively woods - no MX. It is true that the 220 doesn't rev stock. To go faster you just upshift (that's why they have 6 gears). In stock form it is very tame - too tame in my opinion. I came off a ATK 260 that was a real screamer. I had to change my riding style once I got the 220. However, I actually like it better because I'm faster on the KDX without as much effort. I had to scream the ATK for power/speed, but the KDX is the opposite. It'll pull like a 4 stroke down low. So, it's easier for me at least to ride the KDX faster. With only a few mods the power is on par with my old ATK. Throw away the airbox lid, add a FMF Gnarly Desert (or woods) and jet it properly. It's a serious woods weapon now! As far as the stock piston grenading, I've heard the stories. They most often (from what I've heard) let go around 500 miles or so, quicker with performance mods. I've got a little over 100 miles on my bike now, and a forged piston is my next investment as insurance against majorly-bad things going on in the cylinder. The stock suspension is sprung a little light for me, but I have yet to tinker. It's plenty soft though... Overall, I'm very pleased with the bike now that I'm used to it. I don't think that you can go wrong, especially if it's a good deal. With a few bucks, you have a serious contender on your hands. [/QUOTE]
