The 03 KTM 200 was a known hanfull with a hard hit. Other years are better, especially the new ones. More smooth with less hit. I will say this about the 200 KTM's and that they are VERY tunable. The power valve is very adjustable, flywheel weights are available, different pipes, a head mod helps, and a CCx needle smooths it out allot. My buddy has one and used his 03 200 and a Honda 280X to win the Netra enduro SS class overall this year. His 200 also has a Rekluse clutch and depending on the event he uses a trials tire.
I would LOVE to try the GG 200. NH Rider I may have to track you down for a ride sometime. Do you do the NH Classic or any of the turkey runs?
