I love my '92 KDX 200. It has all of the good stuff: FMF, RBcarb mod, Reeds, all of the armor for the woods. It does everything I ask it to: woods, trails, fireroads. I now would like to put a dual sport kit on it so I can do more forest service roads and maybe even communte from time to time, I would even like to do a small trip on and off road, nothing long, maybe 500miles +. I believe the KDX is one of the most versitile bikes of all time, but I am realizing that most of my riding is either putting behind my kids on tame trails, or doing logging roads. My question is for those who have your KDX dualsported, how does it really perform on gravel roads, two track jeep roads, and on the pavement? I already have a lisence plate (just walked right into my DMV, asked for one and they gave it to me), and I am thinking of getting the procycle kit and having the stator rewound. I bought the bike for $1000, have put $500 in mods into it, and with the dual sport kit and stator I would add another $350. I would have a dual sported bike that rips in the woods, can putt behind the kids for under $2000, I guess that is pretty hard to beat, but will it really be that great on the road or gravel roads? I am considering DRZ's or XR's ,but I dont know if I would gain anything. Dual sport guys let me know what you think.
