The 250EX is one sweet little machine! It is an entry level machine, so of course it down have its limitations, but the ride is pure fun.

I would buy a 250ex. The Trailblazer is just too heavy for it's motor. (even though it is a 2 stroke)
One of the neighbor kids has a Trailblazer and it isn't too fast. The 250ex would also handle better.

Both are very easy to ride. 250ex is auto clutch and trailblazer is automatic.

The trailblazer is very comfortable, better suspension, easy to use automatic with reverse, it can go through what more than most other 2wd's cant, and it is easier and cheaper to upgrade than a 250ex. It is heavier than the Honda though and doesnt jump as well. But there are lots of mods out there for it. And with a pipe, airbox mod, and proper clutching, it will easily take a 250ex
