[QUOTE="ssomerville, post: 1132456, member: 56344"] '86 had lots of low end and decent mid-range. Drum brakes, conventional forks, and the HPP was more maintenance intensive than my '93. My brother's '87 had a rear disc brake. The forks were improved over my '86's, and the engine had the strongest mid-range of any 250 I have ridden. '93 has good low end and a great mid-range, and revs higher than the '86. HPP is much easier to maintain. The only aftermarket stuff I added was a Pro Circuit pipe, because the stock pipe got damaged, V-Force reeds, and 2 tooth larger rear sprocket. Great handling, I can always take the inside line effortlessly. At high speed it has headshake that is manageable once you get used to it. Suspension is good but you need to spend time trying different fork oil weights and oil heights. The '93 mostly sat in the garage for 12 years. When my son showed an interest I started riding again about 2 years ago. He had his first race at age 11, and I had my first race in 12 years. I couldn't believe I was second into the first turn starting with mostly 450F's! Getting 1st overall at the end of the day with my 13 year old bike was even better! [/QUOTE]
