Good move getting a 250f. I'm 50 with 35 years riding, I always have a 250f in my stable. They are so much fun. Too many people get 500 or 300 2 stroke before they are ready

exactly my thoughts! the 250 has been Plentyyyy for me and I can ride with folks who have 500's and even 300 2t's and I felt just fine really

I love riding my 250 at around 8000 rpm. It’s fun to rev it out, but it feels like the bike is more settled in the mid range.
@urbexcross 7 ай бұрын
absolutely. couldn't agree more. mid-range it definitely feels comfortable

I picked up a 2013 250 for my son last summer. I usually ride my 450 or 300. It’s actually surprising how much I’ll just grab the 250 if I’m going for a quick tear. His brakes suck through. And the plastic fork lowers are beat and to put the new ones on you gotta drop the forks. So there’s that. But fantastic machines.

Well said! It's fun riding a slow bike fast. And compared to the 500 and other high performance machines, it's nothing too crazy, but it's plenty for me and I really have enjoyed it so far! -Nick

What is your height and weight- I had a klx250 and hated trying to ride trails with my 13yo on his Ktm 150sx 2t. I am torn between a wr250f or the Ktm 250 excf- I am a beginning rider 48 6’1 190- thanks

word slip up. didn't mean to say sponsors. meant to say sponsor logos but wanted to reiterate I was not actually sponsored but I utilized some of the products that these companies make to build the bike.

I have a Seat Concepts seat I can ship you! I don't use the seat concepts, and I'm pretty short, so I rock the stock seat.

@urbexcross 7 ай бұрын
@@owenwatts4894 Well, dual sport rides, only a hour or so. not the most comfortable thing ever but doable. Off-road though, I'm standing 80% of the time so I don't notice at all if I off-road for a whole day. The seat hasn't been an issue at all other than prolonged highway riding.
@phantomshtter 7 ай бұрын
KTMs and Husqvarna and such are performance focused, not comfort. You're meant to stand on them 80% of the time. The seat is basically a 2x4. Not comfy. It's also a trade off on maintenance and reliability, more maintenance, less reliability overall versus the Japanese bikes.

@@phantomshtterfor sure! luckily for a -not very mechanically inclined - person like me, KTM makes wrenching in their bikes super easy, well thought out, and easily accessible. which I have greatly enjoyed so far. it's been easier to work on than I thought tbh

What is the mileage like? Would you need more gas if 6 hours in the woods?
@urbexcross 5 ай бұрын
Mileage has been pretty good so far! I have done 4-5 hrs + in woods and trails and didn't need gas. with a few frequent water stops and scenery's etc. gas seems to last quite a while!

Oh snap, what did you do, just double your horsepower? 😮 You're moving up the ladder in quick order!😅 I love this channel and your style, interested in another content creator for your Channel? I can shoot some videos locally here and there and just send them to you. Chop it up, edit it however you want. There's an amazing piece of "in limbo" property by me with a lake on it that I absolutely slay fishing on and ride all over the property.

My thoughts exactly. I have only been riding one year so the 250f is perfect for me and my skill set so far. I still have room to grow on it as well. that is for sure. It is kind of a unicorn. not many of them out there. I was very lucky when I found this one
