[QUOTE="GaryKTM200, post: 26287, member: 20843"] Hi Firecraker, I have a 00 200 mx/c and I love mine. Think of it as a 125 on steroids. It has the light weight of a 125. Very good low end with a strong hit. And power that will rival a lot of 250's. As for add ons you may want to look at the Enduro Engineering hand guards. They are cheaper than the Accerbis and most KTM riders use them. I put a skid plate, E-Line carbin fiber pipe guard, EE rotor guard, EE easy pull clutch lever and Mich. S-12 on the rear and a M-12 on the front. Currently I am running a IRC on the rear. So far so good with the tire and it is about 10.00 cheaper than the Mich. I put a W.E.R. damper on. And a EE clutch guard. And a Rad Valve. Dang I have a lot of stuff on this bike. Scared me when I started listing them. [img]http://dirtrider.net/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] Those are some things to think about I guess. As for going to a KTM 200 from an XR 200, hang on for the ride of your life. I would seriously suggest finding a place that you are very comfortable with and just get used to the KTM. There is that much difference. I promise you will love it. I'm not knocking the XR 200 but you are going from a go cart to a Formula 1 car. There is that much difference between the two. Take your time and get used to the KTM. Let us know when you get it and tell us what you think about it. As for fluids I am using Motul pre mix. I would suggest getting and extra air filter just to make things easier. You really want to keep your air filter clean. I tryed that spray filter oil but I didn't feel like I was getting enough in. So I went to filter oil that you get in a bottle. I think it is Maxima brand. Good luck and enjoy, Gary ------------------ It's not how fast you can go but how much fun you have! [/QUOTE]
