I am the proud new owner of a 1998 KX250. I just got the bike and right now it scares me to death. I had been riding an XR250R for 2 years before I got this bike and loved the smooth power but hated the suspension; weight and lack of “get up and go”. Now on my KX250 I have great suspension and very little weight but the power just scares me. The engine is completely stock besides the FMF Gnarly pipe. It has a fresh top and bottom end and a new clutch so the engine is in good shape.
My question is this: How can I tame the hit of my bike? I am thinking about getting a 13oz. Flywheel weight. For those of you who say it will be to slow well, slow is what I want. I need smooth manageable power. I ride mostly tight horse trails and will be racing hare scrambles so I need a 4-stroke like power with the 2-stroke weight.
Is there anything I can do with the porting to smooth the hit? I really don’t care if I lose some top end or RPM building ability. I just want a smoother more manageable bike.
Thank you,
Lee W.
