i am a first time rider and was wandering if i should get a 250EX? please give me your opinion

Well if your like 13 or older your gonna need something bigger. Get a lakota 300. If your younger the 250ex would probably be a great choice. I'm 15 and I can't stand anything smaller than my 230. Now that I have the ex I wouldn't want anything smaller or I'd be cramped and sick of it because of not enough power. Ride some bikes and make a good choice. If your a 1st time rider you probably wouldn't want a manual clutch.

The 250 is a nice bike, but if you are large or ride aggresively, you might use up its capabilities pretty fast. I've come around to the idea that beginners should buy CHEAP USED bikes, ride them for a while until they know what they are doing, then step up to a performance machine.

i rode a 250ex once. i didnt like it, because i like a manual clutch, the EX's is auto, and it was too small for me. im 5'10, and still growing. you should get a warrior

If you want something that makes you show out in the crowd get a 200 Blaster.If you get it get a Fatty Pipe.But if your not intersted in getting soomething with a clutch then don't buy the blaster


2 strokes rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think you should get it. It's an all right bike but its slow and has an automatic clutch. You will probably grow out of it quickly. You can get a blaster for less and it is faster and better than the 250EX. The blaster has a manual clutch and once you learn how to use it you will like it much better than an automatic clutch.
