[QUOTE="Smit-Dog, post: 1059219, member: 25436"] Thanks for the detailed and descriptive comparison Randy... appreciate you taking the time to do it. I knew you have ridden all of these bikes, so thought you'd have a good frame of reference and base of experience to draw upon. I have only a very limited amount of seat time on a stock, late model YZF-250, but was impressed with the way it handled, so the blue bikes have me curious. I didn't ride it enough on the right terrain to really get a feel for the suspension, but the way it carved a grass track sure felt much more precise and natural compared to my 200 EXC. The 200 in the woods is light and flickable, which both detracts and enhances the handling. It is not as stable, secure, and planted as it could/should be, but because it's so forgiving, you can manhandle it to do whatever you want, e.g. get it back in shape, re-direct a deflection/bounce, etc. It's like a semi-wild Mustang; a lot of fun to handle, but does require attention. Don: I would like the chance to ride the YZ at the Treetopper enduro if possible. [/QUOTE]
