Message: [QUOTE="lawman, post: 204814, member: 16436"] hey lee, can't get reply to work on p.m., so i'll answer here. glad to hear you are interested in enduros! the kdx makes a fine enduro bike, esp. since you are just starting out. an enduro is not like a hs; it's much longer; the terrain is usually alot rougher; & you have to try to go fast on someone else's schedule on terrain you see only once or at the most twice. it's alot different from going around for lap after lap on a hs track that is wide enough for atv's! it's alot more dependent on the rider than pretty much any other form of dirt bike racing, so you'll see people do well on almost anything. i think you need something you are used to so you don't have to think about riding it, that is easy to ride all day (around here, 55-80 mi. or so), on every kind of terrain. the trails are sometimes hard to do at any speed, much less fast, & yet people will fly by you! my philosophy is that anybody can go fast on the easier, hi-speed parts, so these races are won & lost in the super-tight sections (this is why i ride a 200 myself). since you think your 360 would be too much & you already have the kdx, i think i'd do minimal mods on the kdx (pipe, jetting, tires, springs & valving) & then take it from there. it will be fine for your 1st few & then if you really get into it, you can decide where to go from there. the new schedule is up, & we'll be doing all of them if possible, so let me know if you want to go & we'll hook you up. they're alot of fun! john [/QUOTE]
