H vs e?

Post by straitnate14 »

So I have a 1990 kdx and I love it. I just got the chance to trade my 1986 lt250r off on a 2003 kdx 200 which I'm all over since I quit riding the quad once I got the bike. My question is how different do the h series bikes ride compared to the e series?

never ridden an H-series, but Ive heard they have slightly more top end and slightly less bottom-end torque. They are slightly taller and heavier, not by much, and Ive heard the suspension is really soft just like the E-series

I have both....The ergos on the H seems better to me. Doesn't feel as "heavy" when cornering. It's a lot narrower, seat is actually lower, not higher. Better stock forks by far. And here is the biggest deal.....You can still get parts for an H series, where the E bike parts are starting to become rarer on a daily basis.
As far as power goes....I can't say since my motors are set up a bit different from each other and my H has had a FFW on it since I owned it. But, you can do an Eric Gore 225 kit on the H series :lol:
