I have a '98 CR250 that I use for a variety of terrains, but here in the Pacific Northwest its mostly woods riding. As with most I think, the bike is much better than I am a rider. I have done everything I can to set it up for the woods (Flywheel weight, Clarke Tank, Bark Busters, Side Stand, Etc). Still I have some problems modulating the clutch while going up steep turning inclines; its just too mcuh for my mind to process with the terrain, clutch, line, etc and as you woods riders know stalling on a steep hill is the kiss of death. By the time I muscle the bike around, kick start it and usually go back to the bottom to start over I am exhausted. I recently rode an '04 WR250 and while a little down on power, I felt and was much faster in this terrain. I could lug it more and didn't have to worry about using the clutch near as much. Also If I made an error the E-Start was a nice touch.
I am at a turning point. I either want to try the Rekluse Autoclutch system, or sell the bike and get a 4stroke. Do you think the clutch would make that big of a difference?
