    I've got a 2002 WR250f and I'd say it is very reliable. I'm not the original owner but I bet it has never been rebuilt. I've put 220km or about 15-20 hours on it and the oil is still gold. It's an awesome bike.

I had a compression test done to it last month and it was fine. I keep up on the valve adjustments and the oil. But thats just me. Its hands down one of the best dirt bikes out there. Never had an issue yet. Knock on wood

    • @GiovaniBalistreri
      @GiovaniBalistreri 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      justin wertich there's a big difference between trail bikes (like yours) and motocross bikes, which is what anything above a 2 stroke 125 is. your bike is torque while a 2 stroke is power. Big difference when riding. I prefer a 4 stroke because i don't feel like im being pulled by a turbo charger and i have more control. 2 strokes are brute power, as soon as you hit the powerband you feel like nitrous or a turbo kicked in and basically hang on as much as you can, and you can't really go at a constant pace (you either increase in speed or decrease) BUT THAT'S MY OPINION. Some people like 2 stroke while others like torque. If i were you i would try out both bikes. For 2 strokes i would try an 80-85cc (yz, cr, rm, kx- brand names) because of your size and weight. If it's to small, but has the perfect amount of power, try looking for a big wheel 85cc. 2 stroke 85cc are the biggest of mini bikes, unless you get a big bore kit. After that it's a 125. If you need more power and the bike is too small then get a 125 2 stroke. 125 2 strokes are a full size bike, but the beginner level for a full size bike. You can't go any smaller in engine size with a full size setup. For 4 strokes, try a crf 150r. It's pretty much the only 4 stroke that is for motocross(racing or just riding at high speeds) with beginner level engine size. Again, not enough power, go with a 250 2 stroke but i wouldn't recommend going with that because of your size and weight, unless you're some ama 9 time champion with skill set of a mini ryan villipoto. Those are your options. If any of those are too much power what so ever, go with a crf 230 or ttr 230.

    Your good, I'm 5'11", 215lbs the CRF150F can be setup to push 18HP which is plenty of power, suspension can be stiffened if you get heavier as well. the bike is slightly smaller than a 230 a 250 might be a little too big and too powerful for your experience if you are asking if the bike is good for you. . . . . ride the 150 and have fun.

    @GoproFor Moto both bikes are very capable of doing exactly what you want. When it comes to reliability the Yamaha is definitely ahead of the Honda in the long run. But it with either bike just don't slack on oil changes and air filter cleanings and you should be good to go. Performance wise I'd say they have fairly equal power, weight and handling. Personally I have an 02' WR250F and love it.
