Hello All:
First intro post from a new(ish) KDX owner.
I have been an occasional dirt bike rider since a teen, but nothing for the last 15 years. (Now "middle aged".) My real two-wheeled experience is 30+ years of BMX racing. I picked up a 2000 KDX200 in good appearance over last winter: almost completely stock. No service history, so I replaced the (original "B") piston with Wiseco. Cylinder was kinda scary looking including a decent gouge, but Mr. Fredette told me some came that way from the factory, and to just reassemble and go! Which I did.
I live in southern Denver, so the fantastic Rampart Range area is 35 minutes away. I now have 10 hours on the top end, including both Spring and Fall Rampart Poker Runs. My engine has just developed a troubling mechanical knock. I'll be posting separately about that, probably in the H-model forum (or General Q&A)?
Otherwise, it looks like you have a fantastic community here!
