when you feel like things are star ng to get crazy, you're basically done at that point. The YZ 250 will keep going and even put you in the trees, which is not good for old dudes ge ng back into two-strokes. My woods edi on YZ 125 is here to stay for now. It is an absolute riot in the ght woods. No, it will not tractor around like my 450 and it runs out of good accelera on somewhere around 45 mph, but that's not the point. It has added some enjoyable challenges to my riding, yet is not a threatening bike to ride. It's not as docile as a KDX 200, which makes an even be er trail bike, but that is not the point either. A er digging around online, I've learned that many 40-plus-year-old riders fi rmly agree and it is becoming a favorite among our crowd. It will likely not be my go-to bike for all day rides or varying condi ons, but for a quick three to four-hour blast through the woods, it puts a huge smile on my face and surprises a lot of 250's! Talk to anyone who has one of these and they will likely say it is the most fun bike they have ridden. Talk to most people who have sold one and they probably want it back. The best thing about it is that we can all get into one of these properly setup for around $2,000 and under. That's some cheap fun!
