[QUOTE="woodchuck, post: 118684, member: 18288"] [b]Re: Not to be negative, but...[/b] The key word in my statement is Generally. Because BRush, I agree with your statements about porting if it is done right it can make improvements in all ranges. However, this is not what is typically done (from what I have seen) and is not the only mod which detracts from the friendly tractable nature of a stock KDX. The biggest bang, for the buck is a new pipe. Generally resulting in a bike which likes to wheely easier when it has traction and spin easier when traction is less plentyful. Other attemps to make the bike torquier are changing the sprocket to gear it down, makes the bike jumpy in first gear. I have yet to find a modified KDX which has the same curve to its powerband as a stocker, I'm glad to hear they may be out there with the "mo better" porting. I find that KDX owners (myself being one of them) are always trying to improve there bikes with, pipes, jetting, reeds, porting, airbox mods, suspension work, new handle bars... more than owners of other bikes which are more race ready out of the box. This is not bad, if it is what you want or like to do, and the end result is a very competitive bike and a KDX is hard to beat for reliablity. If you put a dollar amount to the time spent on mods, the KTM /KDX issue would most likely be a wash. Bottomline: Choose the bike based on the charateristics which are important to you and enjoy riding it. :) regards, WoodChuck [/QUOTE]
