You will be able to go where ever you want but its not going to be extremely fast pulling around 200 lbs.

It might be good for a starter quad, but you will quickly get tired of the restriction on speed, I would honestly look for something a little faster.

Add a High flow air filter, replace the main jet with a 112 and add a slip on exhaust. It will wake her up!

The little 250 has tight and limited suspension. If you "go faster", you are just going to outride its minimalist suspension, and that will lead to a lot of not so comfortable riding.....it's just simple Physics!

My g/f bought one last year, i tried it and I'm about 175lbs. It would scoot me around but really isn't all that powerful. If you're 200lbs you will probably be better off saving or waiting until you can find something a littler more powerful. In the long run, you'll save more money by waiting to buy one that you will be happier with for a longer period of time. Otherwise, you will want to spend more money soon after you buy a 250ex for something bigger anyway.

I would have to agree with kas, you should wait and get money to buy a bigger bike. the Trx 250 is a good bike but u will get tired just like did getting beat and blown away by 450 and 400, you will want a bigger bike in no time.
