What happens when you set up the 2020 Yamaha YZ250F, Honda CRF250R, KTM 250 SX-F, Husqvarna FC 250, Kawasaki KX250 and the Suzuki RM-Z250 to go head-to-head? Watch and find out! And for more on each of these bikes, check out the individual videos I'm dropping on each model to explain their characteristics from each test rider's view and how they finished where they did.
Got questions? I try to answer them all, so throw them in the comment section.
A huge thank you to Chaparral Motorsports for making this thing happen, check them out at www.ChapMoto.com

Some weird complaints on the Yamaha about the bars and pegs. Everyone changes the position of the bars when they buy a bike. I’d buy the Yamaha just for the fact the motors are more reliable and doesn’t go through valves like a Honda does. Honda’s are know for bad head shake as well had one hated it. Plus with Yamaha with the tuner app no need for aftermarket parts to get more power. That’s why I went and bought the 450 after riding it and just like the 250 it’s amazing the power you can tune into the bikes they handle and turn great and the suspension is amazing stock.

andrew harissiaidis not much on the 19. Some small character changes to the motor but not drastic. The 20 has a big frame and suspension update, some minor motor changes and different internal gear ratios. Honestly, the ratio changes made a big difference on the ride-ability. Mostly with how the bike is in RPM when going from second to third gear.

I wish the 2 stroke was still alive. The 250F and 450F are fun but the most fun I ever had was on a 2002 Suzuki RM125 because I could just wring the thing's neck and throw it around like it was a mountain bike. I went from the 125 to a 2006 KX450F which was a blast to ride because it had such violent power and handled nicely and I kicked some serious arse on it just like I did with my 125 but being able to just burp the throttle and jump everything I pointed the front wheel at made me feel like I was cheating. I think when I go back to racing I'll be getting a 250F because I prefer the fun of just running a bike hard and the challenge of using the gears instead of just leaving it in a single gear like a 450

I'm looking for a good used bike. With any luck I'll be able to find one that hasn't been abused and can get parts for. I'm 6'6" tall, 230-ish lbs. and ride in northern Nevada (4000 feet+ altitude, sandy, summer temp. high 90's). Does anyone have any recommendations? I don't consider myself a super aggressive rider. I'm more of a four banger 450 kinda guy but open to other possibilities (2-smokes, 250's, euro-trash....just kidding, I know KTM and Huskies can make good bikes). Now I think about it, I haven't been on a 2-stroke in years, is premixing and carburetor jetting still necessary? Thus far, I've experienced (and never been disappointed with), Honda's, Suzuki's and Yamaha's.

Micheal - My Kid currently rides a 17 KX 250F(which he loves) but we are considering going to the Yamaha due to strong dealer support locally. He is 6'0 tall and about 155-160 lbs. Do you think the Yamaha will be to cramped for him? trying to line up a test ride on the new YZ to see how he likes it but thought I would get your opinion. He is a fast B rider in skill level and is very aggressive (flat landing, hammering everything) We can always stick with the Kawi. I am in between the 2. Any feedback or advice you can give?
