[QUOTE="DougRoost, post: 113371, member: 23019"] The KLX definitely uses shim and buckets for valve adjustments, both 250 and 300 (I just did mine; same shop manual, the 300 supplement just has differences in torque settings). Also, I believe the 250's had conventional forks while the 300s definitely have the upside down cartridge fork, as well as a better bushed rear swingarm. And one of the magazine reviewers (read the review links on PlanetKLX) noted the 300 suspension was set up much better from the factory as far as ride height and such. So as was said earlier, get a 300 to start with, which means 1997 or newer. Unfortunately the bikes haven't changed at all since then (one reason they don't get any ink in the press), so other than color and graphics, they're all the same from '97 on. Definitely a good bike for the money, all the mroe so if you get one with a pumper carb and the Stroker idler gear and shift kit fixes.:cool: [/QUOTE]
