[QUOTE="woodsy, post: 687399, member: 27856"] I agree completely with Dave, but, I would do some research into the "new breed" of MX bikes before I spent my cash if I were you... Some things to consider are: I believe the newer CR250's have NO idle circuit in the carb (find out if ALL newer MXers are this way) - OK for MXen but I REALLY like my woods bikes to be able to be jetted properly for slow riding.. Check costs and availablity of trail mod parts - i.e. take a look at costs differences AND wattage output availability between lighting coils (you do want lights dont you) for all models. Take a look at upper end replacement costs associated with each one - I have seen CR250 jugs priced from $450 to $125 from the same supplier. PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT picking on CR250's guys!! I am just using it as an example.. Also, I am not a "Pumpkin Rider" but I know folks who have them and I have riddin with LOTS of guys who swear by them - they really do come stock with some really neat stuff.. Anyway, you are on the right track asking here cause sometimes a small amount of checking will save some BIG cash outlay down the road! Sounds like you are in for a LOT of fun no matter which "trail" you decide to travel!! Good luck! Woodsy [/QUOTE]
