I ride a KX250r 2006 which I have converted for woods riding. I bought the bike because I wanted more power than the KDX200 I have before and the KX was priced right for me.
I rode a friend's 200exc 2000 yesterday, and all I can say is it is super smooth and makes riding seem quite effortless.
I like the power of the 250, but I like the smoothness of the KTM, the 200 didn't seem to lack power, it just wasn't explosive like me KX was when you needed it and you couldn't get the front up as easily to get over obstacles.
I think that KTM is the way to go and I will definitely get a KTM next, the question is which one would suite me??
I am 5'9" 194lbs and in good shape, I do technical trail riding, with big rocky hills and slippery forest sections and I want to stay on a 2-stroke.
Please advice.
