[QUOTE="380EXCman, post: 495322, member: 16412"] Woodsy your way off. There is no way a YZ,CR,RM,KX and even maybe the SX 250's make more "power" than the YZ,CR 450's or the KTM 520 SX. They probably dont even stack up to the 520E's or M's in terms of "power". Even on the Dyno's the 2 strokes struggle to have the same peak horsepower as the 4-strokes let alone the wide spread and huge torque #'s. My 550 has more power in any form than my 380 (acceleration-topend-dyno). I think you are confusing smooth torque filled power with the seat of the pants 2-stroke midrange snap. Almost every guy that has come off a 2-stroke to a 400/520 KTM will say they didnt realize they were going so fast until the had to make a turn or stop. The smooth power is decieving. And as for the 520 being compared to a XR 400 and a [B]"84 XR500"[/B] in the power department? You need to put down the crack pipe and slowly back away. Its clearly begining to cloud your judgement...... ;) DEA, my vote is the 520. I would wait for a response from strick or mxbundy though. Bundy is about your size and he could move right along on his 400 no problem, he even looks good on a 250F (so its not all about hp). Also I rode Strick's 400sx in Reno and I really liked it. At 280lbs I would consider it for Moto. [/QUOTE]
