"It has been done, my master" (KDX 200 Bought)
« on: July 13, 2013, 12:21:35 PM »
ha....haha....HAHA.....MWHAHAHAHAHAHA. It has been done. In my previous thread I asked if i should buy the KDX...well today I did. It's a 1998 KDX 200. Full FMF exhaust. Gold series gnarly pipe and turbine 2 exhaust. Pro taper bars (which i don't like) MRS clutch lever, after market head light, new front/rear fenders and taillight yet to be wired. Frame is scuffed up but good for a 98'. It has all the low end torque I could want. a beast without being overpowering. Much more than I expected. I'm gonna get used to riding the bike and get some gnarly riding in! By the way, the guy said to mix it 40:1 yet I saw that atleast on the 00' model it said 32:1. Which one? I run 32:1 in the 91 kx 250. Tell me what you think of the bike!  :evil:

this bike would also looking good in my garage...  :evil: its in very nice condition :wink:...

i ride only 40 : 1 with "motul 800" in all engines since i ride watercooled mx-bikes

...  the 32 : 1 is to rich and the unburned oil makes a wet exhaust and shortens the life of muffler package which is soaking the oil. and the whole bike is always greasy and dirty of it  :-( ...   the 32 : 1  is good for some older aircooled engines that still have the original lower quality bearings in the crank.
big 2 stroke bikes are weapons for real men, who don´t fear death or devil. ;O)
´83 kx250, ´87 kx250 (with 360 big bore), 87 kx500, ´93 kx500 sfc

Ok thanks. This bike in the future will also be a project hopefully for a dual sport bike. It will never get off the one lane back roads if that ever happens  :evil: Hey all it needs is turn signals and tires. I think I'm gonna lower the suspension and I'm definitely going to set the suspension up for my weight and all that jazz.

Bike looks excellent. Good find. They are fun bikes with just enough power. Enjoy
It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.
