[QUOTE="ebeck, post: 1300077, member: 74219"] I have a KX/KDX hybrid for "woods" riding, I am in AZ. I am 6 foot 180 pounds. In the AZ desert single track I use all the power and torque that bike has. I could definitly use all the RM power off road, but the lack of torque for our terrain makes it a lousy off road bike though. When we hit the slow and go slippery uphill stuff if you break the tire loose, it's over. Both my bikes have had full boat MX-Tech suspension revalve and respring btw. The RM125 is used for MX. With 40 foot long 18 foot tall step ups right out of a berm there is only so much a 125 can do. It is not about being fast it is about a boost in power to clear things on demand. Should I get a 450 or 250 2s? Well, I like the weight and rider input hte 125 affords. I am a Lotus Elise kind of guy not a viper kind of guy. A 125 with more omph when needed is what I am looking for, I am not looking to go "faster". I user casor at 30:1 jetted spot on. Anybody else have insight on the 125 gearboxes and 144 kits. I understand Suzukis are not known for stonggear boxes either. [/QUOTE]
