[QUOTE="ossagp, post: 200919, member: 1650"] I have cr 250's and a yz 250, as well as some yz 125's. the yz 250 is the easiest thing to modify for woods than any of them. the suzuki and the kx really dont have too many options there. the cr has fewer options in that regard than the yz does. the yz has the longest running production time on the engine, so no matter what you pick from 1999 on you will have lots of interchangeability. with the cr up until the 2002 model you have the simpler of the two engines. the cr has one choice for transmission gear modifications from an after market company. the yz has factory gear sets with different (wider) ratios. i like them both. love the yz 125's too, but it is a niche thing. you have to want to ride a 125. that 2012 looks like it gets "loved"a lot, but heck you buy them to ride and sell them when the love starts to fade. the man with the cr for 2300 is pretty full of smoke and i have a 2000 that is much sharper than than one. it would sell for much less than he is asking and i am in alaska. mine will smoke his. the things i dont like about the hondas as opposed to the yamahas, steel or aluminum is that you won't know how much easier the yamaha is to get to things around either of their frames than that Honda with the wide aluminum spars. the 99's and older are even worse and handled worse than any of their forefathers did.
