Cr250

[yelsew]

I have the opportunity to purchase a late 90's CR250 from a friend who is getting out of riding. I am 5'9", 165 lbs, 35 years old. Is this bike too big for me? I am concerned because I a saw another post by a guy who is 5''8" and was tiptoe on another bike and someone else mentioned that below a particular rider weight the bike would not compress correctly.

Touching the ground is overrated.

In other words, no, it isn't too big. ;)

Agreed, but not mentioning your riding experience, it is alot of bike.

97 crs had a handling issue due to stiff frames.
