[QUOTE="Trashrider, post: 1020639, member: 56811"] GJ, You have a lot of advice now. However, you did not mention if you plan on racing and if so what type....hare scramble or enduro. If you are a casual trail rider the 300 or 250 are good choices. If you want to race competively, go with the 200. The reason is weight. Although all 3 bikes are within 10 pounds, the crank inertia increases as the displacement increases. This will tire you and make you commit more mistakes. MX power bands also wear you out on long rides and races. You have to judge for yourself what your skill and fitness level are. Most guys don't like smallbores since they feel that clutching and shifting requires too much effort. I don't like picking up heavy bikes, having massive amounts of torque rip my arms, and trying to manhandle an extra 10 pounds through tight event trail. I am sure you are more confused now than when this started. Good luck.... [/QUOTE]
