Both 18's are brilliant in their own right.
Obviously its essentially the same bike with different motor charactaristics
I chose the 250 because I wanted a bike that would challenge me to stay in the powerband a little more, and one that would force me to learn to master the clutch. Both of those things were very noticeable right away with the 250. I'm very very glad I chose the smaller motor. Its already teaching me to be a better technical rider with my controls.
Is there any specific thing you are looking for out of the bike?

I'm a past GG owner. Had an 11 250 Six Days, and a 12 300. Right now I'm riding a YZ250X which has been a good bike with superb suspension once factory connection dialed it in. Just looking to change things up and was looking at an 18 XC300. Did the 300 lack top end compared to the 250? Any more vibes out of the 300 vs the 250?
