You should get the kfx 400. I went from a 220 bayou to a z400 just fine and i was about your size. I have grown up now. But anyway the power is a jump, but it is not gonna blow you off the back of the seat...The clutch is not hard to grow into. I never rode a manual 4-wheeler in my life and learned in only a week. It took me only a day to get riding, just a week to develope some skill at it...The kfx is a very dependable bike, you won't be sorry for buying it. Good luck on your choice. Peace.

 

hhhhmmmm these choices are so hard, but right now ill concentrate on my bayou. It also seems like im the only one a Bayou '250', everyone else has a '220'. 250's must be rare for the Bayou......

 

How about a mid-bore like a 300ex or Raptor 350?

 

Raptor 350? never heard of it much.......

 

i got a bayou 250...ya there not as common as the 220 but thats cuz they only been out for a few years and theres not really a difference in the 220 from the 250...

 

Go check it out at your local Yamaha dealer.
