If you go with a KDX220....be prepared to change the carb when you get it.
The performance on the 220 is less then that of the 200....both stock. I ride a '00KDX200.
Adding the FMF Gnarly pipe and torbine core 2 silencer made it a brand new bike!
It performs much more like a stock KX250 off the showroom floor, now. But, with the 6th gear
and the weighted flywheel makes for a low stall, yet fast bike. You can bogg it like a 4 stroke,
but it skampers like a 2 stroke. This bike will take you from beginner to expert level riding. Sure,
the KTM is a much perkier(200) bike when you get up to that level of riding. The KTM is also
WAY more expensive then the KDX and depending on where you live...KTM parts can be
much harder to come by and more expensive.
