Going to use a 01 250 chassis as my woods/singletrack machine. Already have a pretty good idea on what drection I'm going in, just want some inspiration. Doesn't matter if it isn't yours, post it up.

Heres ours:

Our bikes are all very similar in specs and set-up.  All of our bikes (three-'03s, two-'04's and soon a '07) recieved Works Enduro Rider revalved suspension w/ 3.9 fork springs and shock springs relative to whoever's riding weight (his 5.6, hers 5.2kg).  They all recieved WER steering dampners.  All recieved Steahly flywheel weights (9-11oz) except the ISDE bike, it recieved a E-Line lighting coil for lights worthy of night riding.  The others recieved the Powerjet carb light set-up to pass tech inspection.  We installed on most of the bikes a V-Force reed block.  All of them had the Pro Circuit Type 296 quiet spark arrestor installed since we didn't have much luck durability wise with the FMF Q's.  51-52 tooth gearing with a X-ring chain along with various guards (skid plate, radiator, carbon fiber pipe guard, frame guards, TM designs chain guide, bars-n-barkbusters).  All of them got IMS 3 gal tanks.



This is a few of 'em in the corral.  New '07 not in picture (newest addition).



This is my '03 KX250 just prior to going home with it's new owner.



This is my fiance on her '04 KX250.



This is my '04 KX250.  Sorry I don't have really any stand alone pictures of the bikes.  We usually take those shots before we sell the bike.



My girl's '03 KX250 ISDE bike.  She still has it.
A couple of 03 and 04 KXs, a few YZs, 3 PE 400s, a DR and a TS.

Nice rides guys!

Heres a pic of an 01 KX250 like mine but mine has an IMS oversize tank that will likely get the axe and the front fender is black.

Going to skin it in some camo vinyl, bark busters and a steering stabilizer.

Dropping the 500 in it when it comes and keeping the stock wheelbase for now.


Oh and when that doesn't get the job done, this one will!

'05 KX250, FSB Racing 13 oz. FWW, Moose Barkbusters, Michelin knobs, Renthal bars cut down to 31", FMF TC 2 spark arrestor/silencer, MotionPro cables, Twin Air Dust Cover, 52" rear sprocket.

This thing is a woods rocket.  Haven't fouled a plug yet, had the bike since May, '07, even though I run low RPM a lot in the woods.  Use an NGK BRP-8ES.  Considering a new reed cage, any suggestions?  Will that increase bottom end power (have to clutch a lot on hills)?

Ive had good luck with the V Force reed cage and the FMF Gnarly pipe on our 03 and 04s. We havent ridden the 07 yet, which has the newer style engine like your 05, to know what the power delivery is like. I heard their a little soft off the bottom and hit hard in the midrange.
