This weekend I went out riding with my brother in law and his dad and got an opportunity to ride the dads bike. He rides an 85/6 XR200. While down on power and on the small side compared to my YZ250 I really liked the delivery of what power it did have. I've had my YZ for about 4 years now and have done alot of work to it to mellow out the powerband but not enough to my liking. What I would like to get is a used modern 4 stroke that has good trail manners and smooth power delivery.I'm open to both trial bikes and 4s mx bikes. I can do most any mecanical work nessecary(I take better care of my bike than my truck)and I wou mind doing minor modifications to suit me(I can't leave anything mechanical alone)Electric start would be nice but not absolutly nessecary.I'm 6'2", 215lbs, not a real aggessive rider but do like dune riding, ride 98% trails. I would like to know what everyone's opinions are reguarding this type of bike. Thanks for any and all responses.
