I wonder when they will do that for the 400!?

When that happens, sign me up. At 180lbs I'm a little fat for the 250.

Well I should say I'm only 5'8". I was up at 200 lbs and that was way too much for the 200 two stroke I had. I still feel a little fat at 180 especially on a smaller bike. But 210 on a 125! poor little clutch. :D :P


I'd love to try one of these new mini thumbers. :D

I rode my brother-in-law's (6'4") XR400. I liked the power and feel, but I couldn't start the bike. It was so tall, I had to find a rock to stand on before I could start it. :emb3: The motor felt about right for my weight at the time, around 190lbs.

Maybe the 250 would be right, who knows tell you ride it?

why don't you try a DRZ400/KLR400? They have electric start, and are great all around bikes. If you get the gel seat it lowers the seat height too. My dad has one, and it's a lot of fun, even though we don't have anywhere to run it wide open around here.
