Ok Ill fill this out anyway even tho Im pretty set on either a 2001 CR250 or a newer YZ250...250SX if hey offer me a smokin hot deal...but maybe you guys will have another suggestion based off of this.
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important)
5'7"ish close to 5'8" if not that...Im around 200 lbs but I've started working out again, usually Im around 175-185 when active...if I really get into dirt I'de like to hit 150-160.
2) How physical / aggressive are you ?
Pretty aggressive at times, Im sure riding a 2-stroke will teach me how to ride aggressively if I am not.
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ?????
FMX maybe a little freeride, def some trail/woods riding...and the occasional track weekend.
4) Do you have any riding experience?
Streetbikes for a while now and limited play time on a few dirt bikes and quads.
5) Do you think you will race ?
Open track days yes, I probally will not compete tho.
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work?
Ofcourse
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)?
Usually Honda but I am leaning away from brand loyalty lately I just simply want the most reliable. best bang for my buck...but I def want a 2-stroke
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry?
Theres a bunch pretty most major brands...Yamaha, KTM, Honda, Suzuki, Kawisaki...I am leaning towards a YZ at the moment
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike?
If I finance Ide estimate $5,000 (depends on what the stealership can do for me) used $1,500ish
10) Do you live in California?
Nope
11) Your age?
23 years on this rock
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
Nothing comes to mind.
Now that we have that out of the way, I was wondering what everyone else was paying for an 08' YZ250? both sticker and OTD? Local dealer said they'de sell me one for $5700ish? I cant remember exactally. but it was around there give or take a little.
If anyone knows the invoice price on one of them that would be great too.
If I dont go YZ Im going back to my Hondas and will hunt down a good condition 01' CR250R...Im aware of what a great bike they are and how much theyre worth.
