Hi, um, my name is Filthy KDX. And um, I'm a KDX owner...... I have been a KDX owner for a while now, and have owned a few over the years..... It all started with a 1988 200 when I was only 13 years old.... Now I'm 43......
Anyway, I happy to be here and hope to enjoy my time here......
LOL!! Is there a 12 step program for recovery?
My buddy just purchased a cherry, 2011, KTM 250 (2s) for $3500. From a technology standpoint it is far ahead of my KDX220. If it wasn't so damn, ......ORANGE! I started adding things up and realized I have more invested in my KDX than he paid for the KTM. Stop! You just can't do that.
I bought my totally stock KDX to get back into fun and easy trail riding after being out of bikes for 35 years. But in less than 6 months I found myself on the starting line at a local hare scrambles. Here we go again! Barely finished one lap, puked my guts out and couldn't hardly walk for two days afterwards. I never looked back and don't do a lot of casual trail riding these days. It's pretty much full bore hare scrambles and enduro events. In the process I've updated my KDX substantially, KX forks, customized shock rebuild, hydraulic clutch, FMF pipe&silencer, MX style fenders and front number plate, Boysen reeds, you get the picture. It's now more of a race bike and can surprise a lot of unsuspecting people riding Pumpkins.
Yeah, I need a 12 step program and a support group!
