I didn't go there to admire the motif...

Since you are concerned w/ my welfare, I drank a "Dead Guy" and a "Sam Adams Oktoberfest" in about an hour... I was soooooo wasted I could not see straight...??? seriously, are you for real??

I'm not talking about me... I never have weighted down my flywheels. I own a 250 and a 450. And have had MANY MANY in the past. I'm just saying that is one way to make a race bike into a bike that is ridable for a beginner. And once you get used to it, instead of selling your turd trail bike and buying a better one, just take the weight off.

my '03 YZ450F had a huge weight on the flywheel.. and it NEEDED it! that bike pulled HARD.. the weight made it easier for me to ride/learn on. ive only been mx'ing for a short time. it did help me.

do a bit of reading first on ktmtalk.com......the 200 is one of those bikes where guys are fanatical about them

its also the bike that pretty much every guy who's hardcore into KTMs has had/or has in the stable....like slutty said, the mountain bike of dirtbikes


I rode a 200 a few days ago..it was a blast and has lots of power, but you MUST rev it....thats what made it kinda fun IMO, it really felt like you could get on it...but not enough power to make the back end feel like its trying to pass the front

Believe me, if you can ride a bicycle, than riding a dirt bike is even more natural. Yes, you have to adjust yourself to the particular bike, you love your new toy better and better and... someday, maybe tomorrow, maybe a month later you want more power or better handling... the bikes are addictive... oh well, you spend night and days on craigslist looking for the mod parts, asking around for the best riding gear, searching the forums... Someday you are going to ask which laptop is better on a trail vs track.:cheer:
Good luck bro, just pick one. Any biking is better than hiking.

First bike is in the guarage it is a 2005 with 17 hours on it, we have to drive a couple hours next weekend to pick up another bike. Katie rode the 200 EXC just fine. We are headed to the country today to cut the grass and ride the bike in the fields, it will be a good way to use up the SJ fuel for winter.

This KTM is a blast and the power is great!

We will both have 200's probably by next weekend. We rode for a few hours today and we are really getting the hang of this dirt bike thing. Katie has done 3 wheelies and counting.:arms:

We had a blast and we are beat to death time for bed!:sleeping:

I will post pics of Katie when I get back from Chicago Tuesday.
