I am looking to get back into trail riding and maybe novice Hare scrambles. 5'10" 160. Beginner. Limited experience on an RM125.
My original intent was a WR250F, I really wanted to look at a 4 stroke with Estart. The RM was a handfull on the trails.
However, one dealer suggested a KTM 250 exc rfs, but from what I read, the rfs is down on power. Also, another dealer suggested the 200 EXC and although it's a 2 stroke, riders seem to enjoy it. It seems to make an excellent trail bike.
Any suggestions, 2 or 4 stroke, WR or KTM? I'm just trying to make an informed choice.
Thanks
