[QUOTE="philb, post: 61715, member: 16615"] this is not really a fair,or accurate comparison. its like apples to potatoes. an XR250 does not = a cr80 or 125. perhaps HP, but that is not how they ride. both of the CRs require a huge amount of clutch work and throttle to keep producing power, an XR250 will chug from idle to its peak RPM range, producing much more useable power for a broader range of riding conditions. an XR200 is NOT a girls bike. these bike produce very useable power and can go anywhere. I can't speak for the XR400, as I haven't been around any, but I imagine that the riding characteristic do not = a CR250 either. the XRs are not motocross bikes, yet they are difficult to beat in the woods. yes, XR650s are heavy. is this a drawback? on a motocross track,sure. in the woods, sure. but if you are strong and want serious torque, are an adrenaline addict fiend, the XR650 is NOT a girls bike, either. Pyro, the XRs shouldn't be compared to the CR bikes. if you want a great bike that will run forever, produce as much power as you can possibly use, great handling, and will hold its value, the XR is hard to beat. check out most 10 yr. old CRs and you will find that they are a dime a dozen and if you are lucky, a good one won't be a borderline rat bike. a 10 yr. old XR, even in the rare instance of rattiness will command a much higher resale value. ------------------ philb 92 XR280R 87 XR200R [/QUOTE]
