Re: hmm bikes..

aaannnn whats wrong with the 250f for trails????? ...

Re: hmm bikes..

to big and buly and gotta do the valves alot. unlike the trail bikes

Re: hmm bikes..

welll.. a 250 2 stroke is still a big bike but light.... and a weighted flywheel will give plenty of low end so you dont stall it out..

if herd ther crf230s are awsome trail bikes...


weird i know guys that trail ride with crf450s lol

Re: hmm bikes..

haha yea i kinda want a yz250 but there all set up for racing. and thats not what i want. lol
cause on 4 strokes you gotta do the vavle bs and thats so money wasting

Re: hmm bikes..

My brother's WR450f with some minor mods (grey wire, pipe mod) seems beastly on the trails...

Re: hmm bikes..

light trail bike.. crf230... xr200r or xr250r all low tech 4 strokes.. which means add gas, change the oil now and then and go

Re: hmm bikes..

im thinking more about yz250 with lightend fly wheel.

Re: hmm bikes..

ttr225 ?

Re: hmm bikes..

lightened flywheel will cause it to rev faster and decell faster.. which isnt what you want for a trail bike, you want a weighted flywheel for my low end power, so your less prone to stall on tight trails..

light flywheel belongs on a race bike

Re: hmm bikes..

lol then somone told me wronge but ok. just gotta sell my bike first. damn i want it outa here and want my new bike. was thinking about a ttr230 but idk. they seem pretty slow.

 

[Drifz1]

ment to be good trail bikes that never break though lol

 

[ATVkid2002]

yea my friend has a ttr125 and he puts that thing through hell and back.

 

[00blaster200]

We have a xr250r. Awesome trailbike and lots of power.

 

[ATVkid2002]

you got a good piont my xr 80 i had before the 125 was good and always started right up.
does this look good to you?
2002 honda xr 200r

do NOT get a ttr230 or ttr225, they have the same engines and are absolute headaches. they have tons less power then a crf230f, are slower then the crf, and have more mechanical issues. get either an xr200, crf230, or xr250. all are great trail bikes and as said above the xr's are very low tech. the xr's are probably the easiest 4 strokes to work on plus they're bulletproof.

 

[ATVkid2002]

ok well i got a bite on my bike so well see how this goes. thinking about a xr600r and making it street legal.

I woulden't get a ttr230 or 225 or anything similar their all dogs , and pritty damn heavy in my opinion.I loved my old ktm 300mxc , wieghted flywheel soo it was really hard to stall , interchangeable powervalve springs, hydro clutch meant zero arm pump in the woods when useing the clutch a ton on tecnical areas.Also best of all had the same piston and rings with a ton of hours on it in there for 3 years no scuffing and great compression. Also unlike the trail oriented bikes , when you get to a wide open area you aren't bored, you can rip wide open and have FUN ,jump and it feels great because the inverted forkes ( if you get 2000 and up i believe) . Also water cooling nuff said.

i say get all the tools needed to adjust your valves at home and do it yourself to save money. i cant see your current bike not being a good trail bike

 

[ATVkid2002]

see its not me its my f*cking parents that dont wanna do it. and not to be mean but it pisses me off that i cant keep it.
