what you think


i think a lot what exc is beter for my


i 85kilograms 174 santimeters hai


i ride dirt bikes from 1997 year and for 2 years i race in my nachional enduro championchip and i champion in E1 class with RM125 but i weri like exc,s


my first dirt bike is kdx 200 in 1998 i ride 2 years then i get RM250 /95/model for 1 year then CR250 FOR 1 year then rm250 /2000/model year for 1 year then YZF 400 F for 1 year and then i get RM125 and i still ride this bike.and my sekond bike for trails is kdx 220 , with RM I go only in races.


and i think if i get exc its posible to go in trails and in races with only one happy bike.?


but who ist the best for my 200 or 300


or mayby i bay 144cc kit for my 125 ?

weel i think that i would go with the 300, but  you would be under powered in the 250 class. i would get the 300 and maybe a suspension revalve, since the suspension will be set up for trails, have them set it up for a mix of trail and motocross, i either one will be fine really, a big 250 2 stroke or a 200 that handles like a 125 and has nearly the power of the 250. but i personally would get the sx450/250 depending on the class and just race a moto bike off road, ktms are good at trails. mx or not. i got a yz250f and trail ride it and race it. it does fine. the ktm should do better. hope this helped.

thanks for interesting answer !


yes yz25f its good but i prefer 2 stroks. its easy for my to maitain and rebuild


and i see in dirt rider jimi and co try 200exc-in "fun zone" and i know jimmi go in last man standing with 200


i love 125 handling but i hate to by unpowered


250f s its good but ewri magazins tests teii us the 200s 2t ist still the better and i sure 200 2t ist moore reliable


start moore easy hot or cold and this is wery importmant for my same

yeah im not saying get a 4 stroke, just that you could possibly trail ride a motocrosser, all the pros do but yeah if you want a bigger engine get the 300 or if you want a smaller one,  200. they are about the same except how much power you want . choose big or small.

well if your wondering what KTM to get. i would get the 300 if your a really good rider in woods. if your still a good rider and you want somthing a little more controlable. dont get me wrong they are both just unbelievably fast bikes but the 300 is faster.

here i sit all broken hearted. 'came to poop and only farted.

Give it a chance, you did gain some weight.  But ride the engine in the higher rpms.  They were made to run at high rpms.

If you bought that 250F for a good price you can still sell it for what you paid. 


It sounds like you may be a better fit for the ktm 300.  It is easier to ride because you can lug the engine down low or rev it pretty high, but if you like the hit of the power band that you had on your 125 maybe the ktm 200 would have been better.  there is not a lot of hit with a ktm 300.


Either way, both ktms feel light when riding them, once you set up the suspension for your weight.
