kDX 200 Great bikes for tall strong guys, easy to work on and reliable
Why do you need to be tall and strong to handle a KDX200??? now if you had said a KX or cr 500 i could understand although huge gonades would help as well.
[SIGPIC][/SIG
admittedly they're a good solid reliable bike,
part of the reason people ride dirt bikes is the excitement, a kdx200 is about as exciting as a diesel corolla
just like the diesel corolla, sure itl go forever, require next to no maintenance, do a half reasonable pace, but they are just dull and average to ride / drive
well clearly you don't ride them right![]()
IT490!! Wooooo!
Then you'll learn how to wheelie and what a woodruff key is.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
OK cheers for the advice, had most saying that an xr250 is the way to go and the rest saying the dr350 is great value, and now the kdx200 thrown in. Is hte kdx200 enough power to lug me about?
Im pretty big, im 6 foot something and about 105kg. Im not to fat or anything but the 125 hauls my ass around at enough pace to keep me happy, i even manage to waste most of my mates who weigh half of me around the mx tracks and trails.. and the 125 is great for learning if your not a complete noob to riding any motorbike. If you can work a clutch and understand the concept that a 125 needs to be ridden close to if not on the pipe then you will hav no trouble riding a mx 2stroke as your first bike. They are also great because being a big fella you will be able to flick it around easily in tight single track. and pushing it is a breeze in the sloppy conditions. Dont look past a 125 before you have a ride.
My choice is what I choose to do,
And if I'm causing no harm, it shouldn't bother you.
Nope' itll suck if your a big fellah starting out. Its a 2 stroke with a mild hit.
You'll be cursing it trying to climb hills and replacing the clutch as often as the oil.
An XR (4 stroke) will be much more fun for you and easily rideable to boot. Go for 1996 onwards,
A bunch of us ride karipoti as often as possible. We have another learner riding with us, he's making good progress, if ya keen once you get your bike PM us and we can show ya around..

well this is just my thoughts but if you are looking at an xr 250 i would perhaps go for a xr 400 .. my sons also a big lad he brought a klx 300 as his first bike ,bear in mind he was 23 and had never ridden a bike before ,after 3 months
he was bored with the power and brought a yz 250 2 stroke
which he still has to this very day.. and he wont sell it ..i know because i tried to buy it.. but also in saying that...the klx 300 would go anywhere,and up anything, the thing was a bloody tractor easy to ride, and very reliable, if you do look at one try and get one that has had the starshift mod done and a better exhaust, they go really well then
cheers Dave
if you think life is 2 short , get a taller one
