Ktm 144sx 2 stroke vs 250 2 stroke?

[Byron]

Ok well im wondering whats the power difference between them and the top speed and accell and low and top end power how does the 144 compare to the 250 does it kep up good?

from experience from riding my 105 sx, and a 150 and 250sx.. all KTM's are snappy as fahk.. however, the 250sx is noticeably torquier.. the 150's/144's still scream, both scared the crap out of me, but in comparison from riding a suzuki 250 and a ktm 250 the KTM felt like a bucking bronc was gonna buck me off any second.. crazy power.. its a beast... the one I rode I call the grim reaper cuz it has injured a few people...

I would try to talk to ktm 13-44 on here, he has both a 150 and 250 the ones i've ridden, and their both insane... i'd say yes that a 150 or 144 could keep up pretty good to the 250, but prob not once that 250 reaches top end speed lol.. I think you def need the weight factor with the 250, if your a smaller build i would highly recommend the 150.. and i'd say try to get the 150 as opposed to the 144 cuz of new technology n what not..

heck, i've been told that my 105 goes like a 125 on steroids..

ive riddin johnnys 144 and 250 sx and ive gota say the 144 is SOOO LIGHT! its easy to whip and stuff, the 250 sx is just a crazy slighly hevier version. you would be happy with both bakes.

I think that if your comparing a newer KTM 150sx, to an older KX 250 bone stock, i'd say you definitley have no problem keepin up or wipin it's azz.. but if your comparin a KTM 150 to KTM 250 similar year.. I dunno, might lose that race.. lol you would be surprised at how much jam those things have though.. I know I was.. and i've ridden 450's and didn't nearly scare me as much as the 150 did. My bf has an 04 RM 250 and lets just say KTM 13-44's 07 150 sx scared me more than my bfs suzuki....but i'm also a realy tiny girl but i'm just givin u my experience factor lol

Is ambers a 144 or 150? I thought for some reason it was a 150....? hmm maybe i'm wrong but ya either way that thing rips..no difference really between 144 and 150 just quit makin 144 and they make 150's now prob just some minor new technology of somesort

Get a 250, it will scare the crap out of you for a little while and you will get the hang of it, you will out ride the 144 in a summer.

i dont think soo

 

[-LadyDirt-]

lol yeah those 144's/150's pack some serious punch, if your not 200 lbs and a mammoth.. that bike would last a long time

 

[synergycycle]

its like a 125 on steriods and vp race fuel. 144's can smoke 250Fs

my buddy actually runs the race fuel in his 150... yikes that thing is nuts..
