My dad is now ready to buy a bike. He hasn't ridden for a good 25 years. He does pereodically jump on my KX 125 and does fine. Basically he doesn't know what he wants. He has talked about everything from a CR250 to a CRF150. Any tips? He is about 5'10" 190 lbs. He definitely knows how to ride so that should affect anything. He wants a bike that he can trail ride with but also take on the practice tracks with me. I was thinking a WR250, YZF250, CRF230, KDX220. please help!

does your dad have any conception that the crf15o is not a smaller version of the cr250? or even the soon to be crf250?

the bikes you mentioned above are great choices except the crf230. if he is jumping your 125, then he'll want more bike than the crf230.

why not a yzf/wr 450?

The YZF/WR 450 would be a great bike for him............however, if we started racing together on the tracks in wouldn't exactly be fair. lol. KX125 VS YZF450 hmmmm
