Well to be honest I'm not a heavy guy. I've riden a 450 off-road before and it was hard for me to transfer my weight around the bike up hills and stuff so the 250 seemed the better option. Only thing is that it doesn't have the legs on the road

Hi moto & welcome Very Happy

No need for long legs on the road, most road work is at 45/50 mph max Very Happy

Ohh fantastic thanks! It's geared very much for the tight woods and trails, 1st, 2nd and 3rd are very close on full throttle
