[QUOTE="BunduBasher, post: 289460, member: 17314"] Neal will be in South Africa in April riding with the great Alfie Cox (2nd Paris-Dakar 2002) At least you get to ride a KTM200 in the Valley Neal :p Tim, lets just say, that the Pampera as a hill climber is probably superior to most enduro bikes, mainly because of the trials engine, and low seat height. These two factors make it very easy to climb steep technical trails. I got to rely on that low down torque, and could attack some really long and steep hills in 2nd or 3rd, if the revs dropped, I could just keep the throttle on, and the bike would just pull on up, no bogging, no stall. The one time I did get to ride the KDX, I bogged out and stalled trying the same style of riding. The Pampera is very 4 strokish in its power delivery, and allows you to get out of trouble on a big rocky hill. When I rode the trail backwards by myself on the Sunday I was going up drop offs, and rutted out extremely steep hills without a problem. The KDX may have struggled ! That been said, the KDX puts down the power really well, did not have to ride in the powerband, and could lug it in most situations, having the right gear when riding a hill is a must, the KDX is not as forgiving as the Pampera. On the otherhand, the Pampera is no race machine, it does not have the suspenders for all out racing or big air of any kind, still it would be fun on an enduro or hare scramble. Now to find me a KDX seat, my butt is still sore from that hard as a plank thing they call a seat for the Pampera :moon: Wendy will love this bike, she needs to get her 250 asap, maybe trialswench can sell her a demo 'cheap' - If you love tootling around on the ttr, you are going to have a blast on the P250 - Wendy may just end up kicking your butt when it comes to climbing steep technical hills :eek: I am still contemplating the LL trip, will have to do about 800 miles to get there, will decide in the next week or so.
