Mate you're gonna have to when it's time to upgrade cos there's fuck all other choice if you want a 2 stroke. No jappas that's for sure

could always buy a o9 crf with a blown motor for cheap I'm sure there will be one and convert it

after this 4tvs 2t thread we really need that tire thread you mentioned kezza

Actually thats exactly why I went Ktm!!! I liked my ali framed Cr, would have bought another CR easily, bloody good bike, but didn't want to get stuck with a brand that was fazing out and not developing their 2T models.
Then Danger pointed me at the 200, a 125 size framed, 200cc horsepower, adjustable power valve, good torque, brembo brakes and braided lines, hydraulic clutch etc etc. I wanted one.
My mate went for a ride on it last Sunday, at the end of the day when his 450 was getting a bit tiring and he was a bit sheepish when he got back. I think he'd always looked down at anything under his 450, said it was a perfect balance between mx and enduro, light, fast and good torque. And I've got the bloody power valve turned back a full turn cause I can't handle the full power yet! I'd like to try a 250 or 300exc but I have a long way to go before I can outride this thing.
OH shit there I go ranting about my bike again, fuck deleting it, took me to long to type LOL!!

Yeh I can imagine it is Chop, that wasn't a go at his bike but sometimes here we are saying the peaky 125 is not so suited to Enduro.
But there it is right up in 8th. Proves its all about the rider aye!!!
