i heard the stock 05 crf feels way lighter and handles way better than a stock 05 yz250f ? is that true?

i have both bikes (05 crf and 05 yzf 250's),and the honda is a way better bike.it turns better,it jumps better,low to mid is better.the yzf is a tad faster on top and is real stable but the package as a whole just doesn't feel as good.but the yzf will last longer between top end rebuilds.me personally i'd buy the crf and put a dr.d pipe on and rock!
