Thanks

My local dealer has two X's and a few YZ250's on the floor. I am thinking about picking up one of the X's.

My question for those who have spent time on the X......

I recently got my '14 YZ250 suspension revalved and am 100% satisfied with the results. If I bought an X I was thinking about swapping out my dialed suspension and selling my 14 with the new X components. A friend of mine said that my suspension was revalved to specs similar to the X and a stock X would probably be good for me out of the dealer. Having not ridden one, I don't know. 

If I bought the YZ250 I would most certainly swap out the suspension but I am unsure about the X.

If your 14 suspension is in good shape, I would swap.

If your a c rider they might work for you, just allow the break in period and set your race sag. But if you have good forks now I would probably swap.

Another consideration is a resale. At a glance the 14 forks look different

I believe internally they are the same. The newer ones just taper down at the triple clamps.

I’m 180lbs without riding gear can I get by with stock rear spring?
