I think the 250 with a 290 big bore kit (yes those are available for the Yamaha motor and also the Rekluse Pro clutch) would be a dam sweet little trail/enduro bike. So much nice stuff available for the Yammi motor.
Uncork the motor, BB kit, JD jet kit, Rekluse Pro clutch, some nice guards and that 250 (290) would be the nuts IMO.

i disagree with a 450 being heavy skidad, unless u drop em all the time thats a different story or try to bench press one i agree they are heavier than 250 but in saying that they are very well balanced and you dont feel the weight when riding. a 250 is marginally cheaper and by the time u spend $$$$$ on the motor it still wont be as quick IMO as the 450. cant beat fuel injection either, any speed any gear they pull like a freight train u dont have to rev the ring out of em like a 250, i had a 250 and getting on a 450 will never look back now.
