How much horsepower does a stock 200 put out? Torque? Where can I find some dyno charts? Thanks.

stock horse powers 26, up to 36 hp with FMF, jetting and porting

Interesting to see the rev pipe make more torque than the torque pipe........Of course that's w/ a ported motor. Wish they would've dyno'd the stock KDX motor for a true baseline.

Exactly! Thats what I'm looking for, a stock dyno.

Nothing wrong with the question...but...how much torque or horsepower the bike dynoes out to doesn't mean much...like zero.

It is a complete waste of time to be shopping for a bike based on a pony number.

Thats not why I'm asking at all. I'm getting a KDX200, I was just curious as to the numbers.

Dusty 13 - I think you'll be happy. It may start at 26/27 hp but it can be bumped up another 6 or 7 very very easy. What more important is that it is power than can be used.


I used to run IT 175/250/400s and then moved onto XRs250/400, WR250 and then KTM 380s. Bought a KDX 200 for my boy a few months ago and I've ridden it 10Xs what he has. It is a fun bike period. Lots easier to throw around than a XR with a nice hit and good powerband for agressive trail riding. Pipe and fork springs are a must then you can have a ball!! I'm seriously thinking about getting one for myself and selling my 380. Much less tiring and I can ride it closer to its potential than I can the 380.

Alright! Someone riding a punkin finally comes to his senses and upgrades to a KDX!!!!

Now to answer your question of how much horsepower does a stock 200 put out?
I don't know.
BUT...........I do know that the KDX220R supplimental manual lists the maximum horsepower as 27kW @ 7500rpm. And as everyone knows; 27 kilowatts = 36.2075965 horsepower [international]
Yes folks, that is right! The stock KDX220 puts out more than 36hp stock!!!!

If you don't know, then look here: http://www.onlineconversion.com/power.htm

Why the 220 suplimental manual list the horsepower and torque specs and the 200 manual leaves these fields blank (page 1-5 of the shop manual) I have no idea.

Oh, the torque of the 220 is 25.5 ft-lb in case you were wondering.

It would be my guess the 200 has more horses but the 220 has more torque. Just a guess though.

skipro3, 36 at the sprocket, but less at the rear wheel. There is a big difference.

Unless two bikes are tested on the same dyno, it doesn't make much sense to try to put much faith into it.

Jason is right - got to be careful of where the horsepower/torque readings are taken. I think Jason may even be optimistic in assuming that the figure it taken at the sprocket - likely the 27KW figure is taken right off the crankshaft end.

Skipro - its not the color you ride its the fun in the ride. Take that however you want. LOL

Like I said...nothing wrong with the question.

And like he said:

I have no intention on treading on any toes...I was merely pointing out that dyno figures can be real misleading, and if used as a guide for bike-choice..well, they don't matter a whole lot.

The KDX is a very capable, dependable woods bike. You can tune it to pretty much any degree of scoot you want to.

Hey Skipro, was the manual you were looking at for this info the one in the garage, the one on the bookcase, or the one on the throne in your house. Just passing on some crapola

Haw, Haw, Haw!!! This was the greasy one. I'll leave it to your imagination where it's located.
