trying to make a KX250 woods worthy

(1/2) > >>

onekawboy:
So I have a 2006 KX250 that I am trying to set up to ride woods with - when I say woods I mean trail in illinos mostly a good bike width trail.
Anyway - i race GP & HS on a KX250f which is well my race bike -  i had some some intention of trying to use this bike for our GPs -

I want to try and ride this KX250 for woods, couple things I have had done -
Suspension re valved for me
Woods bars
13oz FWW
Rekluse EXP
Pro Circuit Works pipe ( not sure if going to keep this or back to stock )
Silencer - prob going to run R304  --

I have not ridden this bike much which is part of my issues - i tried riding it in an Enduro this past weekend ( mud fest ) well needless to say I only did one test section.

So what I am looking for is some knowledge / tips on anything else - guys who ride 2 strokes swear that if I can dial this 2 stroke in I will like it over my 4 stroke -   am all for one trying new things -

thanks

Hey 1kawboy, I think you can make a fine eastern woods bike out of your KX. I have a 2005 that I have transformed into a southeastern single track machine.
Heavy flywheel,clarke fuel tank, scotts stabilizer, rekluse exp, vee rubber trials tire,12 tooth front sprocket, and MotoVations suspension (best money spent ) and fmf Q-stealth silencer.

kawboy - hows your clutch pull with the EXP - mine is tight - and wears my hand out fast -
I have pretty much everything else on it you listed for yours lol

what are u running for a rear sprocket?   pipe?

how does the trials tire hook up in hard packed dirt?

thanks

kawboy:
Clutch pull is very hard, but I never use it now that I have the rekluse.
51 tooth rear. stock pipe. I will never own another knobby for single track
use. The only places that the trials don't win over the knob is hard braking
and hook up while leaned over.
