KLX needs more power!!!
Today I picked up a bone stock 2009 KLX250s. Now I knew it was going to be lacking some power but after riding it all day i am realizing this thing needs quite a boost. What is the best way to get this baby moving a little bit? I definitely want to get an exhaust but don't know whether to go with just a slip-on or a full. Anything helps and thanks in advance for any replies!

I put a jet kit and a Leo Vince slip on. Stock Header. The re-jet and pipe really wake the bike up. I really like my Leo Vince pipe as its all metal inside. Nothing to repack after so many miles. Other than that get a 330 or 351 kit and a pumper carb.
Cheers.

That sounds pretty reasonable considering the only one I can find online is a 330cc bore kit for $789. Where did you find that 351 at?

By the way thanks everyone for all of the quick replies. You all gave me some good info and now there are definitely some things to consider.
Also, for those of you who have the big bore kit, does it affect the freeway riding in any way, good or bad? And also the fuel efficiency? Since I am going to be riding to work mostly I want to make sure the mileage is still good. I read somewhere that a big bore kit reduced someones mileage to around 40?? Seems way low even with the 351 kit.
