[QUOTE="Low n Slow, post: 149424, member: 18133"] I've got a '01 200ex/c. I understand the idea the suspension is too harsh on square edged bumps (rocks roots etc) and how the seat is to take up space between the rear fender and the tank and not to sit on for any length of time or it'll leave a wood grain imprint on your butt. Conditioning required to stand up is the secret here. I suppose your idea of the flywheel weight is to calm the percieved "hit" of this machine. I made mine so much more smooth and tractable power delivery that the standing and the harsh response to the suspension became secondary. Not that those things will be ignored, but the power delivery was either off and bogged or like a light switch - wheeling, wheel spinning and unmanagable. Not a confidence inspiring combination. It wore me out, especialy on steep hills and tight woods sections, virtually all my riding. If you haven't done it yet, get rid of the NOZ needle that is in the carb and go with a single taper needle. Rejet accordingly and you will discover a powerful tractable light and easy to ride bike hiding within. It's the cheapest and best upgrade to the bike, bar none. To prove it, just try to get a hold of the CEJ; CEK or CEL needles. The back order status of these needles speaks for the demand. Sudco and Carb Parts could move every one that they get their hands on. Its the KTM riders of America flooding the demand for these needles. Go to the Holeshot Forum under "Jetting" and search on your bike and year and find what the guru of jetting, James Dean has to offer. I tried the jetting changes and finally found out what KTM really designed. The e/xc has a heavier flywheel. It'll tractor great for a 200 if you dial-in the jetting. Yet, it will walk away from the KDX's when it comes on the pipe and the main jet. It's a whole new bike and I can't tell you what its done for my confidence and abilities to ride the thing over demanding terrain. Go to: [url]http://www.holeshotforum.com/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi[/url] and find out what $20.00 will get you. I can't say enough about the change. How's that for an unsolicited testimonial?? [/QUOTE]
