Recently, I priced my CR125 to someone, and now I am wondering what I will do if I sell it. I really like the CR, but I feel that I would be a better rider on a four stroke. I have ridden a YZ 426, but I felt the weight was a little much, and the power was incredible. I ride a 50/50 mix of trails and MX, so the bottom end of a four stroke would be nice. Since there is very little weight difference between the 450 and 250, I was wondering if someone could compare the handling, suspension, and fatigue factor of both bikes. Also, which one is easier to ride and more forgiving? On the track, I will not be able to use a 450 to its full potential, or even an 80 for that matter. But, in the woods I believe that the torque of a 450 would be great.
