kx_rider53:
I would do everything ssmokem did except for the kickstand (i dont like them) and the Q. Just me. The re-valve would be really handy. Also, if you get the gnarly and hear a vibration/humming sound in the high rpms, do not worry about it.

I agree on both but the kick stand is a must have when you ride with little guys...I was tired of laying the bike on the ground or finding a tree to lean it on when my boy took a "digger".  The father in me just wants to make sure everything is ok with him and to heck with my bike....lol so the kickstand was a must.  And again I hate the "Q" waste of $130 bucks if you ask me...looks like a bazooka hanging off the back of my bike...lol

gwcrim:
I'm with you on the kickstand for the same reason.  Now that I have one, I'd never do w/out.  Such a convenience.

KXcam22:
Also don't forget about some Vforce reeds.  For woods riding on a 250 the extra bottom end they produce is nice.  Here is what I would add:

Skidplate, hand guards, fork upper guard, rad guards.
Terrain specific tires
lower the gearing a bit (not too much)
bigger tank
Flywheel weight
Vforce reeds
Gnarly pipe (and guard)

Cam.

chap:
  I hear alot about these v-force reeds,what about the boyseen reeds,i have used them with good results and if i recall they are much cheaper,just the reeds i think,not the whole reed cage
