New guy from NC
Hello All,
New guy here from Summerfield, NC. Im totally new to the KDX, i've ridden a few always wanted to have one to play with so i decided to pick one up and ended up with a very nice 1996 200. i haven't even had the bike in the dirt pretty much got it and tore it in to pieces, suspension sent out to our builder, cylinder is headed to fredette, all new tires, bearing, bars, levers, perch, pegs, cables, brakes, pipe, reeds, ect on the way. im really excited to get this little monster out to play in the next few weeks.
if anyone is local is looking to ride we ride and train weekly, everything from street, road racing, MX, AX, dual sport, adventure, to my favorite Gnarly single track just let me know.

Welcome and congrats on the 96! Probably my favorite year due to purple shrouds, tank, and seat.

Re: New guy from NC
Any chance the old bars on that bike were the purple Renthals? Sorry, been looking for them for my 97, had to ask.

Thanks guys
The bars are the natural finish barks with a purple cross bar pad. They definitely are period correct for the bike

Where is Summerfield? I've been in NC nearly my whole life and I'm drawing a blank.
