Is it a good idea to get one after a having an lt80 for 8 years also I'm a good driver and also a good driver on a trx250es

 

If the machine is in good condition and you are of age/size/ability to handle it they can be a sweet ride. Remember no matter what way you cut it, it is a 20+ year old machine that will need more maintenance than either the 80 or 250 4 stroke you mentioned.
