what should i do?

[Kawikoos]

I own a kx250f, its a good bike but me and my brother both need something to ride over the summer. I have a job lined up so money isnt really a problem but i was thinking about getting an rm250 instead of a 450. Then, I could spend more money and gear and parts, and so on... Im 6'0, i weigh about 180 pounds, and im 16. Im kind of aggresive but im still learning, im more of a calculated rider... i do like the steady pull of a 4-stroke, but i recently drove a 2-stroke and i have to say, i liked the powerband :nod:

be a man and get the rm. you will LOVE the powerban

Haha, alright, im going to test drive an 03 tomorrow... is there anything i should know about them if i do buy it

 

[flyingfuzzball]

if you already have a bike why do you need something to ride over the summer?? im confused here.

 

[Kawikoos]

because my 18 year old brother needs something to ride to, we were both looking into racing
