I am 32 5' 10", 200 lbs., and fit, I had an 80 when I was younger and have ridden a friends 125 a few years ago, I plan to do trail and hill ridding, I like Hondas and am looking at a 89 cr 250, and a 90 cr 250, same price ($1500) is there any difference? Would this be a good bike for me?
All other things being equal (abuse, aftermarket extras, hours of use, etc..) the 250 is a better deal.... If you have ridden a bit the 250 shouldn't be over the top for 200lb rider, as long as you ride within your limits
I am your size but 43. Took about 15 years off riding then got a 93 yz250. Powerwise you will be fine but not sure what the Hondas your looking at are like to ride. Check www.georgiaoffroad.com for an owners review of many bikes and years.
