KDX200 vs KDX220

Post by HSV-Dirtrider »

I am sure this has been talked to death... kinda like asking what oil you use but....

For tight technical trails which is better? I have heard that the 220 has more low end torque and can lugged much like a modern 300 can.

Thoughts?

I have both and much prefer the 220 for tight single track. It does pull much like a 300 only with less power.

And here comes the curve ball...a little clutch work and bam you have top end too with the 200. 😁

You can’t go wrong with either one.

I was meaning that the first response is near perfect... someone who has both. Terrific situation for this thread and OP's question.

Another of my failed humor attempts...just stirring the pot on "the great debate". Agree with you 100%
