    Hey guys, im selling my trx450r soon, and want a dirt bike. I can't decide weather i want a 250 or a 450. I do a lot of dune riding but also some tracks. Im about 5'11 165lbs. Very experienced on quads and ride dirt bike every now and then. Let me know what u think thanks

    I know you want answers and not more questions, but have you ridden a 250f or 450f yet? Which did you like better? What other bikes have you ridden?

    iv only ridden the 250f but it seems a little low on the power, although i love the power to weight ratio. on the other hand the 450 would be a lot better i feel for the dunes because of the power, although its heavier, i think it might be better in the long run
  • Get a 450f. 250f is very borderline (power wise) in the dunes.

    You could get a 250 and bore it out too 290 win a big bore kit. That's what I did I weigh 160
