Hp703,
I have had my kfx for a couple of months now and I can't complain at all. I am 6ft but only around 175lbs and have plenty of room and havn't bottomed out the shocks at showroom setting. I ride with a bunch of Raptors and in a drag race they did kick my butt when I was stock, haven't raced since mods. I like the Raptor power but not the ride. Kfx feels so smooth and does great on the trails that we have rode, and I feel that is where the playing field evens out is on the trails, plus all day rides and dune trips U feel the difference in comfort level. If U can try to get in some rides on others though before U commit and lay down the dough. I do know the Bombadier DS is suited well for bigger guys but is also wider and a bigger bike altogether

 

I'm 6'1" 235lb and my KFX worx great for me.I also want to race hare scrambles.
