I'm 27 years old, 5'11" tall and weigh in around 190lbs.
I'm about to buy my first bike.(I have ridden a few in the past although.) I plan or riding a mix between wide open spaces and trails. Nothing to tight and technical though.
My only concern is low end grunt. I would love to get a 4 stroke, but can't swing the extra cash. I want something that I don't have to keep wound up all the time in fear of fouling plugs left and right.
With my height and weight factored with the "low end" I want, what would you suggest?
Personally, I'm leaning towards a 250. I've done some reading and it seems that with a weighted flywheel, Gnarly pipe and some gearing I would have what I'm looking for.
Or, would a 250 be too much for me to handle? Can I get the same kinda results from a 125 with some mods?
