Sometimes Its All About The Bike.

I chose my 92 RM250 for a couple of reasons. First is its a Suzuki. Second it was what I could afford at the time. From the beginning I started out riding Suzuki's. I like the way they handle. The 92 250 I posted once I got it healthy made way more power than I could or would ever use. I dont ride motocross but back in the day my bike was raced and the prior owner did very well with it. Im a Desert racer and recreational trail rider. And the bike adapted to it very well. In particular with the handling on tight twisty trails or single track. But I know it was a formidable beast on the MX track also. Since then Ive moved on to a different bike. 2001 CR 250. Mostly for parts availability and more up to date suspension. The Honda is a MX machine. But Ive successfully transformed it into a nice desert bike. It does well on single track and twisty trails. But Ive had to change up my riding style a little bit. The Honda likes to be backed into corners where the Suzuki railed the corners more. Personally I really dont care what people ride. As long as they ride.

I think we choose our riding style on the bikes we enjoy riding the most. It isn't always about speed.
That's why you don't see many 500's out there. I for one don't need a 845 horsepower bike when I can get the job done with my little 40 horsepower 250f....

I think that also goes the other way to, we choose our bikes on our riding style.
