hey guys thanks for all the answers and opinions a few people asked what year models so if i was to get a crf250x no older than 05 (cos 04 are the crap ones)
and with the wr250f no older than 04 and i sorta whant to stick with a 4stroke because i will be riding it on the road when i get my L's.
(my mate has a 03 ktm 200exc and his dad has a 07 honda crf250x and he says he should of got a 4stroke he reckons it just feels better to ride and smoother no on or off power)

Thats what is so fun about 2 strokes and turbo charged applications.

is there any difference between a wr and wrf i know that wr is a 2 stroke but if you type wr250 instead of wr250f into trading post it comes up with 4strokes so whats the differnce between a wr 4stroke and wrf 4 stroke or are they just the same bikes people just don put the "f" on the end?

i like the WR's but i think it would rather the ktm 250 simply because of service schedules.

every 300k's for an oil change is a joke. especially for riding on the streets. if you rode you bike everywhere you might have to change the oil once a week!

a 2 stroke will last longer before it needs a service and all it will be is to change the rings
