Best small bore Vinduro

[Mike52]

The 81 KTM 125 mx lc was something special engine and suspension wise.
The 125 Huskys of that era handled like nothing else.

That could mean anything, or nothing

I suppose if you had ridden one then you would understand.

The 1984 was a Very good Bike ..

I sold I of My water cooled Bikes  . I had to say No to H2o

But My 1981  KTM 125 that I do Vinduro is very Fast in the Bush .

Is that the disc valve engine ?

[Nathan S]

That's Dennis who said no to H2O and magnesium, and No it isn't.

Pre 85
Did a lap on a PE Full Floater at Rockley and was impressed with the rear suspension, motor pulled strongly from the bottom too.

XR 200 is the 'Stealth Fighter' people scoff at them and they seem slow but you can get them moving quite easily. No good in deep sand or wide open sections.

KDX 200 pulls from the bottom better than the KDX 175

If I had to choose one it would be either 84 IT or KDX 200

Post 85
I test rode both the IT & KDX 200 in 86. KDX seemed the stronger motor so that's what I bought. Great bike and I have 2 of them neatly stored in boxes now



87 KX/KDX 125 was my next choice, great bike and I have an 88 neatly stored in boxes now.

WR200 if it is old enough for class,
The kdx200 good thing too

[EML]

For me it has to be absolutely reliable. No matter how fast it goes (with-in reason) or how well it handles (with-in reason) it's no good to anyone sitting beside a trail with the clock ticking.
XR200 it is then.

[80-85 husky]

PE kdx and It fit those requirements too.
husky as well (as long as it doesn't have the SEM (Seldom Electricity Making) ign.)

[Nathan S]

Any of the jap bikes fit the reliability criteria, no drama.
