Default thoughts, 2013 XC200R?

This one caught my eye.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...1982968910478/

Was thinking CRF250 or similar. Will be riding at the track (40 yr old speed) with my learning son (12) on his CRF150R. But looking also to ride trails occasionally. I can ride fast but don't see myself ripping it a ton.

5'11" , 160 lbs.

Are you in the Houston area?
I know the owner of that bike.
I'm sure he's willing to deal on the price.

Picking it up will be almost a pleasurable experience.

Yeah, Houston. Thanks for heads up. Is this a fun bike to ride? Which model do you ride and what kind of riding do you do?

I have a 2018 XC 250.
Most of my riding is in the Sam Houston National Forest.

I've never owned a 200. Everyone raves about them.
A bit heavy. Solid ride for sure.

I had an 02 200 EC ages ago. Best bike I ever rode. Till I rode my mates 300. But as long as you aren't in deep mud or a never ending up hill they are just fantastic.

I haven't ridden that many 250 4 strokes but the ones I have have been boring. 450s go ok but are heavy and cumbersome.
