I am 32, 6' and 170lbs. Picked up an XR 250 a few months ago and got back into riding after an 18 yr. break. I now want something a bit snappier and lighter feeling. I live in California (LA) thus need a green sticker bike. I am more of a trail/open space rider yet want to be able air it out once and awhile. Reliability and ease of maintenance are key. My ultimate bike would be a new WR250F yet it's not green sticker eligible and they are really starting to crack down on new bikes (This law is a joke). I figure my options are:
A) used/older two stroke with a green sticker- WR 250, KDX 200 or 220, KTM enduro
B) a new four stroke - KLX 300, XR 400, DRZ 400
Any thoughts? Thanks.
P.S. I going to look at a 97 kdx 220 with nice extras
