Goodbye KLX250SF... Hello Aprilia... :-)
Hi guys,
I would like to thank all the members of this forum as they were the most helpful people regarding any issue/upgrade of the KLX250...
I just traded in my 2009 KLX250SF for an Aprilia Dorsoduro 750... So far (10miles) it is an incredible bike... SOOOO MMMUUUUCCCHHHH Power...
Here is a little picture of the bike I just got:

I traded in my KLX250SF with all the simple mods (FMF Powerbomb + FMF Q4 + Dynojet Kit + Handguards + handlebar raiser + renthal handlebar + rear rack...) for $3120...
I dont remember how much the bike was... But all I know is that I have to pay $168 / month for 48 months...

Love the Aprilia. Before any SF owners get their shorts in a wad, understand that this is "my" opinion for "my" preference in a motorcycle. What anyone rides for their preference is great, and I defend that wholeheartedly.
I've never understood the WR250X or the KLX250SF. Motards are primarily pavement bikes. For me, pavement bikes without some decent power are illogical...unless we're talking about fuel sipping commuters...and yes, I realize some use their 250 motards for that too. But when I think motard, I think 650 or bigger, and frankly I think a rather powerful 650 if I'm staying with that small an engine...not a KLR650 or such.
As a true DS bike these 250's make more sense to me because of weight and such when you're doing the dirt part of dual sport. But for pavement, give me something like this Aprilia or even a Versys or such. But hey...this is why so many brands and models of motorcycles exist. There's a massive level of preference out there among those of us who love motorcycles.
