I'm looking for a play bike comfortable for adults. Have my eye on the old Kawi smokers (around 2003-ish), and was wondering if there was anything else different between the 220R and the 200 besides displacement?
I'm not sure sharing another website is frowned upon on this forum, but I found this site to be very helpful with my KDX200.

The Shop
I had a KDX200 about 10 years ago and rode the wheels off of it before I switched to a KX250 and eventually onto KTM 250 XC's.
I just picked up another KDX200 this fall to use as a loaner bike and as a trail maintenance bike. I found one with 10 hours on it for $1500...too good to pass up.
Best mods for the 200: FMF Gnarly pipe, FMF turbine core spark arrestor, Boyesen Rad Valve and a Fredette carb mod. All pretty simple stuff but it really wakes it up.
The bikes are super-reliable and easy to ride...I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a great trail bike.
