[QUOTE="rayovac, post: 159740, member: 19647"] O.K... don't just flame me and tell me to ride one... LOL... Its not currently an available option. I am looking for those that have recently been on a 250 that have made the switch to a Thumper... I am considering making the change from a 98 CR250 to a CRF450 when they become available. Note I said considering.... Some of my questions are: 1.) For a novice rider, would it be to much to handle (Weight/Power etc.)? I am not a large guy... 5'7" 185lbs. 2.) Handling is a huge concern... non issue, or do they feel as big as they sound? 3.) "Typical" powerband... is it smooth as in "controllable" or more like slamming into the Pipe? What attracts me is: 1.) The Technology... O.K.... I am a geek.. so what. 2.) Hoping the lowend torque is all that is made of it. I like to ride lower in the RPMs... 3.) Maintenance... is it safe to assume that if good care is given... upper end rebuilds would possibly happen less often? 4.) Of course THE SOUND!!! and Would love to be the guy throwing the big ROOST! Any experiences and insight would be greatly appreciated. RayoVac [/QUOTE]
