[QUOTE="angry jim, post: 692259, member: 19406"] I ride with several guys about your weight and over 6' tall. When we switch bikes, they can't believe how fast they can go on my 200. A little extra info. I have an 03' 200exc. I've done everything from desert racing to MX. I ride about twice a week. I race and practice on this 1 bike. I pulled the cylinder off today and took the piston and cylinder to my dealer. They were shocked at how good everything looked and said it would be fine to put back together as is. The piston mic'd a bit small, so I decided to go ahead and replace it and clean the power valves. I have over 250 hrs on this original piston and rings! I've ridden up to 7000' elevation without so much as touching the air screw. I have done over 20 races without a DNF. I never lost an ounce of coolant even in the tightest woods in hot temperatures. I run Maxima Super M at 40/1. I clean the air filter often with no-toil. I change the gear oil regularly with Rock Oil. I've changed the clutch plates once. I'm still on the stock fork seals. I've replaced 1 rear shock heim joint. I wore out my stock foot pegs and shifter tip and break pedal tip. I've crushed a few pipes, 1 beyond repair. I've broken 2 rear spokes. I've bent and worn out 1 rear brake rotor. I've repacked my spark arrester twice. I change spark plugs every few months, but have never fouled a plug. I broke a throttle cable and clutch lever. This bike is tough! [/QUOTE]
