[QUOTE="bigred455, post: 707570, member: 19827"] .. djr, the 03 kx 250 is the best bike I have ever owned. The motor: The 03 motor is just a little softer on the bottom than the 00 they did change the internal gearing for 03 and the exhaust duration was advanced so they both play a roll. It could not pull 3rd gear through a medium size corner that I use to pull on my 00,but I did fix that. ;) The 03 motor has a thicker spread than the 00 ,mostly in the middle. The 00 revved through the rpms quick and it was done the 03 does revs good,but it is spread out more.The mid is great,once it gets to the top , how can I say this it kind of just hangs their instead of pulling through. Kinda of soft up top but does not flatten out like the 00.I also fixed that. The brakes are excellent and the rims (DID SHOULDERLESS) are very strong!!!!!!!!!! I love these rims. I like a motor with good bottom not great ,but good,then come on strong in the mid and pull hard all the way to the top and able to hold it their. THICK. The 03 is thicker than the 00,but instead of flatten out on top it just pulls soft, kawa almost had a motor i like.. For the woods, motor wise you could use the 03 with a tooth or 2 more on the rear and you would have no problem but to purchase a 03 soley on the motor instead of the 00 for the woods NO. I like the 03 motor better than the 00 it doesn't flatten out and scream through revs like the 00,but that is just my style.. Now for the frame and suspension plus the turning ability of the 03 it is no doubt in a different class than the 00. Kawa has pretty much had already a excellent frame and suspension,now it just jUmped up another level,plus their is a bonus it turns and turns well,you must believe. I ride mx only,put atf front and rear rebound out a few more clicks than stock, set my sag,different bars I am good to go. So motor wise for the woods it will work and work well,but I do not think it is better enough TO BUY than the 00 for the woods stock. Everything else YEP!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
