Message: [QUOTE="mas2de, post: 1354945, member: 106477"] If you find a 400 go for it. Most any XR or XL is bulletproof. If you're 5'8" don't buy the 650. Great deal but you'll never fit it. Great for you when you're in sand but, again, it will kill you on trails. My dad has riden his XR500 since 82(when his friend bought it new) that his 270lb can still loop on a flat trail and lugs him up any wall, :cool: and he's never touched the engine. I've always had an XR200 that for trails has never given me any trouble. (Save for 100* + days going uphill the whole time till we stop, then it needs to cool down before it will start) But I only weigh 170-180lb. I'd say find an XR 350 or a newer low XR400(awesome bikes in my opinion). Good luck. [/QUOTE]
