I have heard mention that the KDX200 is not a good candidate for dual sporting. Supposedly holding it at high speed while street riding is potentially lethal on the engine when you let off the throttle and engine brake it. Right?
I have had three Yamaha RD two stroke street bikes and all ran great with no problems. I rode at speeds of 55-60mph on 60+ mile drives regularly with no ill effects. BTW, two of them were stock running oil injection and the third modified one I ran premix.
So, is it the gearing of the KDX or what that makes it bad as a potential dual sporter? What is the problem or design limitation with these bikes?
