Congratulations I hope you have a ball on your new 250. Don't let anyone make you feel bad about getting it. It is a great machine with a very high fun to dollar ratio. I have ridden atvs since they came out back in the 80's. I bought the 250 because it was low maintenance and fun to ride. I have ridden with guys who started out with high performance machines and they were scared of them because they were way too fast for their abilities, I could smoke em on a lot lower performance machine. Take the time to learn how to ride right. Take the free course they offer. If you learn to get the potential out of your 250, when you get a faster machine you will be able to make it go even better since you learned how to ride well before you learned to ride fast. Have fun!

 

Great purchase! Being a beginner a 250EX is perfect. You wont have to do much of anything to it besides change oil and ride [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I hope you got a good helmet and other riding gear too. Have fun and dont listen to the negative comments, the 250 is a blast to ride.
