KDXer said:I am keen to get back into off road riding after 1 year of concentrating on other things. I had more than 1 KDX and a DRZ400 previously, but I am very interested in a KX/CR/RM for this round. My question is, just how 'wide' are the enduro bikes wide ratio boxes. I did a test ride on a ktm exc 200 and 250, and both felt top end wise not really any faster than a KX/CR. Wat are your experiences concerning top speed runs ?
fuzzy said:The real benefit to a wide trans is having a granny first and still having MX or greater top speed...
Yeah, I never realized that until I looked at your spreadsheet. It's slightly more informative than KTM's website :)the first two gears on the 2-stroke KTM's are the same whether it's an MXC or EXC
Mike's 2003 YZ250 said:What I want to know is how much faster would the top speed get with each tooth you go down on the rear sprocket, or up on the front sprocket? And how small can you go on the rear sprocket. If stock is 49, is there a 48, 47, 46, 45, 44, ...?? I am also wondering what the top speed is right now on my BONE STOCK 03 YZ250. Also, what is the stock gearing on my bike, is it 14/49? Thanks for the replies. Mike :ride:
fuzzy said:Ive read about folks swapping the WR450 5th gear (and some the whole WR trans) into the new YZ250's. They can then re-gear to suit and the 5th will make a nice overdrive gear.
YZ165 said:Aren't the YZ250's already 5-speed? Or did you mean the YZ450? I'm curious because I have a 450 and would like to get 5th gear back.
