yeah, if the traisl new though you cant really haul ass through it, ive done it on a 02 CR125 and the result isnt pretty, never wrecked it but S's come out of nowhere and theres BIG trees in the woods, LOL. but i did trail ride it a few times and it is fun, and they are quick little suckers, id imagine the 250 would be REAL fun. I myself am gonna go for 4 troke because although i dont mind working on my own stuff and maintaining them, I dont wanna be rebuilding top ends all the time, and then when im in there id do the bottom too just to be safe, and the guy with the 4 stroke will still be out playing.
