there is a visual difference and the actual diameter of the system i.e i cant put the sx pipe to the exc expansion chamber but i was more worried with the year models as they change things.
the rest of it is pretty much what your saying just diferent compression ratios ,CDI, etc oh and the exc wider ratio gear box

sorting the bike out and since i bought a procircuit pipe and 304 shorty when i got the 250 sx and havent used the standard system at all ive tried it on the EXC and she fits

[ianMember]

i picked it up !

she is bog stock standard (which isnt a bad thing) hasnt even changed the original jetting so will sus it out through the week

and i have some stuff from this one to throw on it to :woohoo:
I must say it seems a smaller bike than the 300 i can easily touch the ground on this one and they reckon theres 3 kg difference to the 300 the 250 comes in at a 100 kg

Looks the goods mate! If I got a 2 banger, it would be a 250, sweet ride in my experience!

I think so to , just think bigger isnt always better and at 100 kg it will be easy to throw around but a 250 smoker still has a bit of go but a bit easier for it to hook up than the 300 .
It will be interesting to compare it to the 300 i owned especially being the same year model plus the 2012 250 sx i have has been ported and head mods done to it plus a dicks racing 36-39 mm taper bored with intal jet set up so i can change things over and see how they go, hell can even throw the scotts steering damper on

Well done on the new bike

Asking for forgiveness is easer then asking for permission. 😆

A week of silence is good, in my house it’s about a two week period, then back to normal it’s worth the pain for a new bike

Cheers

ok shes just found out im buying the new one and she hasnt stopped so when does this week of silence start :blink:

[ianMember]

no worrys Storky , be good to get back up there but i will be a bit rusty .

i went with the ktm 250 way Snow because i still have the 12 model 250 sx that iv done a heap of mods to and i can swap things over and plus i just reckon the 250s are a good size

P.S. That’s the right size in a smoker

mine sounds a little to official for a rouseabout like myself but its worked pretty good for me over the years

Good luck huskybloke… nothing worse than workin with people u don’t see eye 2 eye with. :dry: :huh:

You going to come riding again :huh: cool :cheer: 😆

From one end of the weight range of bikes Husky 510 to the lightest a KTM 200 ( a 200 would suit u Huskybloke) so catch u on the trails soon.

my bike before the 510 was actually a XR 650 L running a pod air filter with the battery in the airbox (basically a XR600 with electric start) so its certainly the other end of the stick dude and your right it isnt easy in that situation but its even worse to even dwell on things so my motto in life is ” assess the situation and act accordingly ” even though it sounds a little to official for me it has worked for me for years so we move on
