[QUOTE="xxrrider, post: 810766, member: 55473"] Hello All, I am new to this forum and I NEED a KDX. From ages 6 to 18, I rode dirtbikes quite a bit in western PA. Last year at age 30, I got back into it and bought (and still have) a very nice '97 XR400. My neighbor (also an XR rider) has been talking about KDX's for a while. So I go ride a BEAT KDX that was for sale around the corner and BAM - I'm hooked. It's so much lighter and smaller than my big XR and still has enough low torque and revs way better. I'm losing some of the XR's tractor like bottom end and linear power delivery, but the handling, flickability and fun factor are no comparison. - dry weight of an XR400 is 257 vs. 223 for a KDX!! So now I'm looking for a KDX in good to very good condition. My XR is worth a little more than $2K so I'd like to stay around $2.5K . Questions - 1) can I get a very nice KDX220 for that? As a rough gauge, I'd like something that has its original or second rear tire on it. 2) What should I look for - any critical maintainence issues, any good gauges of wear / abuse for a KDX? 3) There is a 1999 KDX 220 for sale here that is advertised to have 50 original miles and has a MI street title (saves about $100 and alot of hassle here in MI so you can ride transfer sections up north) for $2800. Is that a good deal? Thanks very much for any help/input - Anthony [/QUOTE]
