haha ok i have to say i went to watch the MX today localy, and the higher reving 250s like the honda acctually sounded beautiful Ok I have to say, the Suzuki rm-z 250 actually sounded really nice ! Loads more low end grunt than the rest of the 250s by my judgements after the MX today, but it must have been a 2010 or 08-09 because apparently the 2011 rm-z has joined the rest of the characteristicaly high reving crew that are the 250 mxers haha tell me if I'm wrong ..!
You can't tell anything about a bikes power by listening to them. You can tell where they are in their RPM range though, and if their pipe needs repacked Honestly, sound means nothing, stock exhausts on bikes differ brand to brand, and the same goes for aftermarket. That's why it sounds different. You can listen to my 220 and think i have no bottom end because my bike sounds high pitched but it has more down low than any "grunty, bottom end sounding" 250f.
Ah yeah, what I meant was that it was low in the RPM range but still throwin roost ..! Thanks for the info though . I heard the 2010 rm-z 250 has more down low than the 2011 model.. Do you know if this is true ? Nice what is it (your bike)?
If I were you I would get a 2stroke they teach you how to become a better rider starting on a 4 stroke will make riding easier but lazyier
I'm a Honda guy and on the 125 it seemed a little slow but with 250s my favorite bikes are 1997 to 2000 I've owned 2 98s a 99 and have a 2000 and they are very good bikes but I would go rm for a 125
my crf250r stalls out alot more than my ktm 144sx (2 stroke) and the 2 stroke is way easyer to start. when i first read the tittle i thought "oh he should get a 230 cus that is the easyest bike in the worls to learn on" but then i saw your height and weight and now i think you deffinatly need somthing bigger. just make sure if you buy a used bike, dont get one that will turn into a money pit
those year cr are actually pretty good bikes just the 250s 01 and newer are weaker than 96 up to 00 but 01 and up are still decent bikes
