My last bike was a '12 KTM 300 XC, so that's my baseline for a ride report on this bike.

Power Delivery: Punchy and plentiful. I'm running the red power valve spring and I think it's definitely the way to go.
Suspension: A bit stiffer than my setup on my last bike. I set the sag but I still need to get it dialed in. I'm using dealer settings for rebound and compression and the ride was pretty jarring over rocky single track sections. The suspensio feels great at higher speeds.
Other Notes: This bike is noticeably lighter than my previous bike. Last bike had a Keihin carb with JD Jetting. This Mikuni carb is doing just fine in elevations ranging from ~5000 to ~8500. If i have issues, then I'll probably opt for a Lectron.
