I used to get holeshot after holeshot against 450's and two stroke of all sizes. Never ever felt the lack of power was a problem aside from the odd gigantic loose material hill. Wore out front tires faster than the back, and never crashed. Bike just didn't have that extra little bit of power that gets a rider in trouble. Sold the bike to my cousin after two years and he rode it for another 4 before selling it. Never had to touch the engine. I won the internediate title that year on that bike, winning 9 of the 12 races I attended.

Even before I bought my 11 300GG, I was thinking about going back to a 250F. IMO they are the safest and probably one of the funnest bikes to ride out there.
I had the same experience on my 250X. Lots of holeshots, perfect blend of power and traction.

Being on the down-sizing line of thought lately, I dream about being able to afford one of those and stick supermoto tires on it.
