Nice review man! I race desert and ride out at glen helen and have literally never bottomed out with more than 140 lbs in the air forks on any of my 3 ktms (21 125xc, 23 450 xc-f, 23 250 sx). Something to be aware of is that there's different valving between the SX and XC bikes, not sure which you have on your 250 4t but wanted to mention it. The XCs are valved much more plush in the midvalve than the SX and require different pressures which is shown in the manual. Of course this doesn't matter for 24 XC bikes which have the spring conversion. I have 6500s on my 23 250sx and definitely recommend if you have the means. Theres also a few nice KYB conversions out there, which I'm planning on trying out for my other 2 stroke. The 450 is staying put with the air forks and I'm installing the JBI midvalve kit for it to handle chop and square edge a bit better.

I saw you on the highway with your two dirt bikes, cool vids
If I was racing I'd like the electric start but just messing around. I'd take the 10 lbs weight saving personally
