Yeah, why bother the missus with a job you can do yourself

WR250F sales are dead. There were plenty of leftovers dirt cheap.

I still think the GG250F is a cool bike, just not at the price they must ask for it.

I found a cashed copy in google from those guys. I rode a KTM 350 XCW a few weeks ago, that thing was super out of the box and with no suspension work.

one of my buds, who is a die hard 50 yr old 2 stroke motocross rider rode one of those and was very impressed also.. said if he ever went away a 2 stroke it would be the 350..

I was surprised at the lack of engine braking, which messes me up being a 35 year 2T guy. I am 230 + gear and the suspension was soft but didn't bottom in some nasty stuff that I took it though. I think that I could live with it out of the box, maybe lower it 1" for my stubby butt. Power was very smooth and it felt very, very nimble.
