Scott,
Try calling Factory Connection and see if they have any records on the bike. I don't know if they would, but they might. They are an excellent company and my current bike has their suspension, and it is awesome (I had Race Tech front and rear on my KDX250).
The KDX250 was given very bad reviews by the magazines, so it did not sell well. This makes resale values pertty low, so its a great bang for your buck. Basically, the mags did not like the weight, the riding position, the way the motor ran and the overall handling. Fortunately, the motor can be remidied easily, and improving the forks does wonders for the bike's manners.
If you are a magazine guy used to riding MX bikes with 2 gallon tanks for 15 minute motos, a KDX feels wide, but I need to go 60+ miles of range so the big tank works for me.
IMO, Kawasaki was trying to keep the price low and just did not quite finish developing the bike's jetting and suspension like they should have. So its up to the owner to finish the job. In Kawasaki's defense, the bike was sold as a dualsport in some markets, and the soft spring forks with too much high speed compression damping might be the right setup for the street.
I had an FMF pipe on mine, and I also had a modified aftermarket silencer/spark arretor from a KDX200. It worked well, and the power delivery was very smooth, with more rev than the stock pipe and less of a low/mid hit which the stocker has when the jetting is cleaned up.
