[QUOTE="dthoms, post: 628230, member: 35596"] BIF, I don't know where it is that you ride but here in Michigan if you rode 50 miles of challenging single track it might just kick your but no matter what bike you were riding. As mentioned before the EXC has a wider ratio trans, and because of that it has a softer hit. You could drop a tooth on the counter shaft and make up most of that difference on the 250 or 300 two strokes. For my riding style I prefer the two strokes over the four strokes. They are lighter and easier for me to ride a long distance of single track, the nastier the better. I have ridden some of the larger four stokes in the woods and with the proper set up they can be tamed. If your are a beginner you might try riding a gear higher, that way when you roll on the thottle the hit isn't as hard and you will have better control. Then if you need a little extra power you just fan the clutch and bingo explosive power at you finger tips, that will let you jump over most obsticles in a single bound. Depending on you weight height I would suggest a 200 or 250 EXC for the tight woods, and then possibly a 300 if and when you have more experience. I have been riding longer than I want to admit and my choice is the 250 EXC, It is by far the the best woods bike I have ever owned, and I have owned more than a few. So where do you ride?
