yea, i hear good things about yamaha.  i heard they are kinda top heavy which i think the rider will get used to.  i think im leaning for the honda becuase they are pretty reliable.  all accept the 2004 crf250r with the oil pump problems.

Have you read all the tests and shootouts? We have a lot of reading here on the website. Check the main page under bike tests.

We put a lot of effort into getting that info, so please use it to help your decision. All the bikes are good, but they all have a different personality.

Here's the 2008 250F shootout to get you started.

search the DR site for first ride 07 , that will tell you the good stuff about it.
Then search first ride 08 that will tell you all the bad stuff about the 07 that got changed in 08.
