[QUOTE="mxbundy, post: 124233, member: 21862"] Absolutly not true. Eel you meet me at the qualifier up at Gorman. You know, the big 6'4" guy on the 250F. Well let me tell you that yes when you rev it out you are rewarded with big power (for a 250 4 strk.) but it also has good bottom end and midrange, there is no weak point at all. Now I dont know how much bottom power your XR has but ive heard that the YZ doesnt quite match it, but it has enough for me and I weigh 260#. I was neck and neck for first in my class at the qualifier until I got the flat. It just so happens that the guy that won my class ( B 4strk. ) was on my minute and he was ridding a XR 650. I never felt at a disadvantage to him in the more open sections and could walk away from him in the tight stuff. But the 426 is a nice bike also and for that price I would say go for it. I have a 99 400F also and for tight woods riding like at Gorman I would diffinetly recomend the gearing change and fly wheel, it makes switch backs with abrubt hill climbs right out off the turns much easier. I have never had a clutch problem with the 400, but the 250 seems to chatter alot. You would probably want the suspension set up for you on either bike, as they are not that plush off road stock. You just cant imagine what good suspension will do for you, its incredible how plush they can get the action and it still have better bottoming control than stock. se you this weekend mxbundy [/QUOTE]
