This is yet another stupid question to ask. You come on here, a 2 stroke forum, what answers do you think youll get? You go on a 4 stroke forum and ask, what answers do you think you will get? It all comes down to personal preference. Whats this 4 strokes are more reliable? I can tell you that is so not true. A 2 stroke can be just as reliable if not more reliable than a 4 stroke. It all comes down to maintenance and how well you maintain your bike. As far as the raptor 250 goes, its slower yes, but the handling is second to none. The first time I rode one, i was really surprised with the steering/suspension. As far as power it did lag some what, but thats nothing a few a/m parts cant fix. You say your tired of wasting your money on your blaster? Whys that, is it not fast enough? I tell you what, your going to either dish out the extra $3500 for a bigger quad such as a ltr, 450r, yfz, or 700 raptor because anything smaller such as a raptor 350, 300ex, 250ex and so forth is just not going to cut the power your looking for. If you want the raptor 250, go for it but once again youll be dumping more money into to make it faster.
