My buddy just picked up one, and made a video on it~ nice riding bike for sure, maybe next year I will look into a new bike, maybe a Husqvarna 300 TC or a Yamaha YZ250X, until then I will be playing with my RM for my dirt bike adventures! I checked out your buddy's channel and subbed to him! nice!

I just traded off my 22 te150i for a new 250fx yesterday. Loved the tpi 2 stroke when it ran correctly, after 10 months of frustration I traded it off. The te150 only ran good for 16hrs, then nobody could get it running properly again. My choices were the 450fx, 250fx, or gas gas and ktm 250/ 300 2-stokes. I picked the Yamaha because I felt it was the most reliable.

Good choice it's an awesome bike! I love my ktm 300xc but I seem to have more fun on the yz... however the 300 is definitely easier to ride in hard terrain!

@@utmx I just rode my new 250fx, yeah it's a handful on the rocks compared to the te. I could ride the te all day, I was done after 1hr of med pace on the 250. I was significantly faster on the te150i, the te on the pipe is just as powerful and out climbs the 250fx for sure. The 250fx is extremely similar to my 2012 kx450f on the trails other than less power and having the short 1st gear. The kx 450 has a Tokyo mods woods tune, with additional timing pulled, much better low end throttle control than the 250fx. For me, the fx suspension needs work, needs a throttle cam or some other way to create some exponential in the throttle response so the power isn't so choppy on rough terrain. I feel like a stepped way back in technology and comfort trading the te150 off for this new 250fx, but it runs properly, and that's more than I can say about the te150. Unfortunately I am already thinking about trading it off already, it's just to similar to riding the kx450f I already have. I prefer the softer suspension and off pipe power delivery of the ktm 2 strokes, probably going to end up on a 250i.

I love mine. It does well all around. It has so much low end torque and snap I had to do some mods to take some of that away for mountain singletrack. I have both a 300 and the 250 and I ride the 250fx much more.

It was on a more mild mode. You can actually do unlimited different maps on this bike. I own it now. You can make your own maps or download other people's maps. And you can have 2 loaded to the bike at a time!

I have a 21 yz250f and it has crazy bite, the gearing is a tad different but same engine, from 1-3 in most of the tracks your riding a stab of the throttle will lift the front wheel. 4 strokes are known for being more bitey down low compared to the 2 strokes. But of course its not going to feel it when your laboring it that much.
