Message: [QUOTE="Motus, post: 125142, member: 20824"] I just traded my xr 400 (600 before that) to a 520 MXC and i love it. I run about a 50/50 mix of woods and moto. I had a "set-up" day for both conditions and wrote the settings down. With a few clicks I can get it dialed in pretty sweet. My best riding bud has an XR650R and the power on the 520 is very comparable....smooth as you want or wick it and rip. I did put a 13t front sprocket on for the tight stuff. I also do notice the BIG tank sometimes (mostly on the moto track), but I'm coming off of an air cooled bike with a thin tank so everything is wide to me. We had a 70mph straight at this past weekend's hare scramble and I still had throttle left even with the gearing change. My bottom line is that if you like thumpers you will LOVE this one.
