The Pro Circuit bikes might have been getting holeshots, but a showroom-stock 2019 KX250 had far less peak power than a KTM, Husqvarna, Honda or Yamaha. Now, it's a little dead down low, but where the old bike was flattening out at around 10,000 rpm, the new bike is really taking off. It's still a fun, exciting bike to ride and a very stable bike at speed. It's not the same bike it was in 2019, but it is a bike that's more competitive and more likely to win races.
