Hmm. I've been looking at the CRF250X and I've been thinking that it will be underpowered. And that wouldn't be good. I ride a Kawasaki KE100 and i think it is WAY underpowered, and that a 125 2-stroke wouldn't be THAT much better. I've heard that a 250F would be equilivent to a 125 2-stroke with more grunt. I like a 2-stroke, but i really wanted to buy a 4-stroke, but they cost a good bit more money. So now I've been thinking of a YZ250, or a CR250 am i making the right decision or am i WAY wrong?
Info:
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important)
I'm 15 years old (wont buy the dirt bike till I'm 16) but I'm 6' 0" tall and i weigh about 180 or so.
2) How physical / aggressive are you ?
Once i learn the bike, I'm very aggressive!
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ?????
Mostly in my yard, But some trails, woods, fields, with friends and maybe every once and awile hit the track!
4) Do you have any riding experience?
Yes, 2 years on a Kawasaki Ke100
5) Do you think you will race ?
maybe, but just mess around on practice days.
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work?
Yes, and i will do MOST of the work.
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)?
I like Honda and Yamaha, but i don't really care, i don't know either 2 or 4 stroke..
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry?
Yes, Kawasaki, Yamaha, KTM, Honda
9) How much do you plan to spend on a bike?
around $4,000 maybe a little more.
10) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
Uhhh, no not really
Thanks for the help!
