Newby Needs Help
Hi all - Just got a 2006 KLX250 with 122 miles for $2,900 - thought it was a pretty good deal.
It's been a while (years) since my last dirt ride, but I'm REALLY looking forward to it.
Anyway - I need your tips on how to perform the following mods on the 06-07 KLX250:
1) removal of smog/emissions
2) breather tube relocation
3) Any other mods I can make (before re-jetting and Muzzy-fying) to put a little kick into the bike.
Please redirect if there are already posts on these processes and THANKS!

I live in upstate NY (near Saratoga). My brother in-law is a bike mechanic, but I want to do everthing myself. That way I can understand things and learn a little in the process. To me the journey is more important than the destination. Thanks.
