[QUOTE="jeffd, post: 327680, member: 18789"] I will be buying a new bike soon and I am trying to determine which bike to get. Here are my stats: I am 5'10 and weigh 170-175 lbs. I ride x-country, woods, and some MX I am coming off of a YZ125 and looking to get out of the constant shifting and clutching riding that a 125 "offers". I have ridden all of the bikes I listed and each has their good and bad points. I'll summarize what I have gathered to date: YZ426F ++ gobs of power + no premix or frequent top-end jobs required - weight - starting "drill" - feels top-heavy in the turns YZ250F + no pre-mix and top-end jobs + easier to ride (less tiring) and lighter than 426 - starting "drill -/+ ? down on power compared to 426 and different power delivery than 2-stroke YZ250 + 2-stroke power hit + handling + weight - top-end rebuilds and premix Given what I know, I am still unsure as to which bike I want to live with. I am leaning towards the 426, but not by much... What input can you guys add to the list? FWIW - I am looking at 2002 year model bikes. Help!!! -jeffd [/QUOTE]
