[QUOTE="robbieisurfriend, post: 1243338, member: 77317"] I am starting out on a 250 2t also. I had ridden many other bikes but never a 2t. Everybody I ride with hates it or is afraid of it but I have no problems with the powerband. After about 2 minutes I had it figured out. One funny thing is that most of them will hit harder if you hit the powerband, let off, then gag it. Mine will stand up almost every time if I do not lose traction first. As long as you do not putt around and if you do pull the clutch and rev it every now and then you will be just fine. If you do not have the space or surface to open it up on then dont open it up plain and simple. Im not sure why people dislike them or are afraid of them. Its a bike, a 50cc kids bike is sufficient enough to kill you and a 500cc 2 stroke can be riden safely by anybody. Its all about SELF-PRESERVATION. I can have fun without taking BIG risks. Gearing changes might and might not be necessarry depending on where and how you ride. If you plan on going slow, gear it to do so and vice versa. You cant go fast on a bike geared to go slow and you cant go slow worth a crap on a bike geared to go fast. [/QUOTE]
