Comparison of 03-04 YZ, RM, CR 250s

Ok so i am now considering twostroke bikes again along with fourstroke thanks to my friends 450 exploding. That has an effect on the way you think about your next purchase :nod:

Anyways, i want to go 03 or newer but only have 2200 bucks.
How are the RM, YZ, and CRs of those years.

Some things ive heard but cant confirm.

03-04 YZs

Great motor
Good suspension
Alittle Heavy

03-04 RMs

Quick Motors
Great transmissions
Lightwieght
Wierd ergonomics

03-04

Weak motors
Great suspension
Really light


That is all i have heard about these bikes. Anybody want to give any expierences with these ideas.

If you're not serious into racing. I'd make that YZ one hell of a bike with 2200 hundred bucks, heck, even half that. Why jump the gun and get a new bike?

the 2200 is with the sale of the bike i have now.

Plus the 2001 is having some problems of its owns. So i think it is time to move on and see other people... i mean bikes

Make sure you tell the next owner what kind of problems it's having.
