I am looking to buy a new bike shortly. I owned a 01' KDX 200 which was stolen in August. I am now looking to buy either a 02' KDX200 or a 02' KTM 200exc. When I last rode my KDX, I know that I was ready for a pipe and some other modifications, o-ring, handlebars, handguards, etc. I wasn't bored with the bike, just wanted a little more power. If I buy a KDX, I will make these mods right off the bat. I do mostly woods riding in PA, but plan to enter some GNCC races this summer for my first time ever racing. I know the KTM is a bit more expensive, and that is one of the bigger factors in my decision making, however I want the right bike for me as I will probably keep whatever I get for quite some time. BTW, I am 5'11'' 165 lb. if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance for any advice & help. Tom
