    right ive got a question, how long would my bike hyperthetically last if i used it on average 200miles a week at quarter to half throttlle occasional full no traffic stopping (ok jump that stuff)

    ive got a spare head n pistion on my shelf, sic an tired of 200cc kmx on the road an forgetting how to throw the beast about,
    on topic off topic who cares, p.s, deep fryed topic now thats a tasty snack

    oh yeah i forgot i assume being a wr enduro it should last a while atleast

    THANK YOU:popcorn:

    Go ask Mr.Owl,
    Probably the same time it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

    Idk, but if you vary the rpms, and the engine is cooling properly, and you dont run too lean, then the top end should last as many hrs. as if offroad.

    yeh thats a good option ive got a supersprox kit am running 14/ 48 but cant get a larger sprocket on the front, reluctant to change the rear as its new..
    definatly an option tho, guess i will just start using it an tell you how long it goes, sell the kmx and pur that towards a rebuild engine at a later date.

    thank you for you help

    there really doesnt seem to be any clearance between the sprocket and swing arm. i willl order one and have a look but ive less than 5 mm clearance before it hits the actucal arm.. so i doubt an extra two teeth would be accomadated.


    2 premo i know i ordered sprox and they didnt have stock in stock so i thought for twisty stuff this thing would be good with 14/48
    it tops out about 78 80mph but i rarly take her to the redline i like the roll on and off of the throttle not fussed at super speed

    no sorry i ment twisty woods stuff. im tempted to keep the kmx 200 till my 550 zypher is back up n running, the more i read on other forums (psst dont tell anyone else) the more i think its another bad idea.
    no i dont race on the road thats for the track!
    ive lost the points on my license so im trying to keep it clean.:)
