I probably have more torque because I'm a thumper. The competition would be similar to the CBR250 and the Ninja 250. The Ninja spanked the CBR on top, but the thumper had an advantage down low. When you think about it that's the only way to go for a dirtbike.
The KLX is out at 91 MPH, the Ninja will bust a ton. It is also much more aerodynamic with lower rolling resistance tires.
