[QUOTE="WR 250, post: 98698, member: 17697"] Going from the RM to a KDX will be a pretty big change. Either KDX will feel tame compared to your RM. From what I've read an aftermarket pipe really wakes up a KDX. If you don't lie the abrupt MX style power of the RM then you will love the KDX. It will allow you to explore trails that would be pure misery of the high strung RM. Plus you will actully have some fuel range to do some epic rides. When I bought my KDX I was a little concerned since it gets bagged by the mags for being a not so serious trail bike. But I found that is exactly what I wanted for my local riding area. My WR 250 was very fast and powerful but it had the wrong type of power for what I wanted to do. When I bought it (used) it came with a Moose flywheel already installed and a Pro-Circuit pipe. I put the stock pipe and silencer back on to try and smooth out the power but it didn't achieve what I wanted. The bike still didn't like to chug down low when I was slowly making my way through a gnarly trail. My KDX makes things much easier and now I find that I'm trying to take on even tighter & gnarlier trails. That type of riding is what is fun to me and the KDX is perfect. If I lived somewhere else like the desert and the riding was all wide open sand trails then my WR would have been a lot of fun. In that type of environment my KDX would feel underpowered and probably a little boring. Your conditions of groomed type dirt trails would work well with the KDX. Check out the Just KDX webpage. Canadian Dave put together a pretty good comparison of the 200 versus the 220. [/QUOTE]
