[QUOTE="The Ant, post: 767464, member: 27453"] ChaCha- I loved my lil BBR, you did not make a mistake. If I had tried to start as a novice with the 250x, I think I'd have either gotten hurt or just given up from sheer exhaustion trying to pick it up... I could only consider riding this monster because I don't fall as much as I used to when I started. I felt like the new owner should have signed adoption papers when I handed the BBR over to her. It was kind of traumatic for me! I think they were a good match tho, she was coming up from an xr100 and even a bit shorter than me, but took off on it like a champ - her only complaint was that "it wasn't a real bike unless you had to kick start it!" The BBR just has a different feel to it, I rode it one last time and it was all light, springy and bouncey... it can hardly be kept on the ground. The CRF is more like this big beast - very plush but totally grounded. I expect some of that is cause I haven't really hit the throttle yet, but then I want to stay in control so have been basically putting around. And even lowering it as much as we have, I still can't really touch the ground except with ballerina toes- I could never have ridden this bike as a novice. Even pushing it around the garage is a challenge! That said, I'm really looking forward to China Hat this Sunday, I'm expecting it to be mostly big open eastern Oregon trails, lots of whoops, terrain where the bigger wheels will be an advantage - hah, as long as I don't fall down more than twice!!! SRellis- I think Darryl has already sold my .38 fork springs to one of his other customers, if not we can let you know. -SusanP. CRF250x [/QUOTE]
