[QUOTE="TreeTalker, post: 844467, member: 53810"] [b]my 2 cents....lol[/b] Okay, I think I may be opening up a can of worms here...lol But first let me ask what kind of Mint. Bike you have??? I use to race while I was over seas in Yokosuka, Japan. I had a Joshua "SO" full suspension. It was loaded, STAR and the works...so ya I know what ya mean when you say 3 grand...lol And your right, you might as well spend the money on something with a motor. So coming from a former rider of leg power here is my 2 cents....get ready worms :nener: I think you should get a CORF250X, it is the best all around bike made. Now let me tell you why. I have had mine since March and not one problem with it. Now I have had to change a few forks seals due to my own lack of knowledge. But I have learned from my past mistakes, I now have seal savers on. This bike has plenty of power, it's not the hit that two strokes have, but that is a good thing when it comes to riding trails. It puts the power to the ground without alot of the clutch work that a two stroke needs. Now I am no expert...lol anyone here can tell you that. I am just a new rider who is the slowest among the heartland spodes. But coming from the perspective of a new rider, I think a 4 stroke is the way to go. It is very forgiving of mistakes you will make. You won't get much better the the 250XI, just add a skid plate and some bark busters. If you think more power is what you need, then the 450X is coming out soon. As for using it for some MX. I have had mine to the track here at Dora for some practice. Now I must tell you it scared the hell out of me!!! But I can now do the double and all the step ups with it. The bike has plenty of power to get me around the track and keep up with a couple of friends. It never bottomed out on me either, it also helps to have friends who now how to set up the suspension. Well there is my opinion. :laugh: You are more than welcome to try it out whenever I am in the area. Good luck with your shopping. Lee [/QUOTE]
