I have some questions about this bike. I am looking to get a bike I can use on the track and the trail, something that can jump a 20-30 foot double but still handle enduro races well. I think this might be the bike for me. I have been comparing this bike to the new Honda CRF250X and wanted some help in making my decision. I pretty much narrowed it down to Honda or Yamaha.
1.) What years has the WR250F been around? Can you tell me the major differences between the years and why I should get a certain year over another year? I want to stay away from years that might have problems with the bike ya know.
2.) I want to perferably spend no more than about 3K on a bike, but if the new Honda CRF250X is going to be sooo much better than the WR250F then I WILL take a little loan and buy new. I just want a good bike. So can you compare them and let me know what you think about the 4-stroke Yamahas versus the 4-stroke Hondas?
3.) How much do you think I can get a GOOD CONDITION used WR250F for? What year would this have to be most likely? I live in New Jersey if that matters.
4.) How would the stock WR250F handle and jump on an MX track compared to the YZ250F or YZ125?
5.) How does the WR250F handle in the trails? Is it better than a KDX200 or some of the hard to find used KTM EXC bikes?
I just want to be sure to get a bike that is a GOOD bike that is very VERSITLE and I can use on both track and enduro trail races. I compared the WR250F against the WR450F and they seem pretty much the same thing, just with more power and weight. I don't need something this big so that's why I am thinking the WR250F is good. I am 6'2" and 175lbs.
I will be very interested in what others have to say about these 4-strokers.. thanks!
