I also need to do a little jetting work, as my bike is very very tame compared to yours (power-wise). I can't wait to get it sorted out!
That being said, I find myself riding the 200 more and the 250 less as time goes on, because the 200 is more fun!
Look into the power valve if you think it's a lot tamer than mine. While it's not supposed to be adjustable, I remember the guy I bought it from (Pete Tanner at Razee's) saying there was some adjustability there by changing springs or something? I remember reading a lot of enduro guys try to soften the hit a bit

^ common on some Husky's too. different springs will move the powerband or hit in either direction. (sooner / later)

:doh: I've been doing this...makes for some potentially violent lowsides
hmm...I need to try going into the turn with the rpm's up and see if I can stay on it through the turn

It's good if you like to practice doing donuts, or riding wheelies into the weeds with your legs dangling behind the fender...

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
BTW, coming over the pipe requires some good corner speed. It's not really a beginner thing... In that case, I'd try riding the clutch with the revs up and just a little power to the ground until you are pointed out of the corner, then ease it out to go.
Either way, higher revs are your friend.

The 300 is a better all arounder (for me, currently), I can sneak around a lot easier, because it can be ridden off the pipe.
So as a plated dirty, it's the way to go.

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
I think paul will be riding a 2 stroke soon.

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
If I can sort the motor, I'll ride it one more season.

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
First TM vid at top of this page is from Cahiulla Creek. That track is steep, deep, and gnarly! Can't imagine riding it on a 125... !
Rode a YZ250F the other day after the whole summer/fall on a YZ250.. Wow the YZF felt sloooow. Was def 'easier' to ride fast but not nearly as fun. Don't think I've ever beat/revved out a 250F so much... Can't wait to rise 2st again.

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
cahiulla creek is a 2 hour drive from LBC...I wanna try!!!
as always - if any of you guys want to fly out to LAX, or Long Beach airport, I'll pick ya up in the BMW, you have a futon to crash on, a 96 CR125 to ride w' an '01 F150 to get you to the MX tracks, and an FZR600 to carve some cool canyons!

Re: Let's liven up this forum... 2 STROKE!
