Harsh torque/boost curve = fun Same... And this really hit home to me when I purchased a 4 stroke KX450f, after owning a 2 stroke CR250.. The KX is nice and it is really easy to ride. But, it is as boring as bat sh*t, due to the power being so linear.. I really miss my CR for is brutal power band.... Edited 13/06/16 07:54 AM by HI PSI

With an aftermarket exhaust, definitely 1

Following that xr8 even with stock exhaust on Saturday was pretty moist. I'd still go turbo though. Can always change suspension. Engine swap sucks haha
