250r - 450r ...what do you guys think ???

[xtremelimit]

ok i have a full laeger tpin 250r im selling it gonna get a 450 race ready ..just bothers me a little cause ive had it for so long lol..just wanted to see if any of you guys out there got rid of your 250 and regret it ..some say they love the 450 way better than the 250 some say the opposite ..just trying to get other opinions lol...

I've owned and races both ( 5 250R's) , (1 450R) I ve sold them all.Yes i miss the snap of the 250R and the smell of race fuel.More maint on the 250R but its cheaper then crank failure/case on the 450R.If i could do it over again i would have kept my 89 250R and had both at once.

yea thats what ive been thinking lol ...i have a full race 450 already but idk just want something different maybe time for change ...

Id keep the 250r... Nothing handles better than a leager t pin "R" IMO. the extra small maintenance you need to do on a 250r is well worth it.

Agreed. laeger 250R's handle like mad

If you like the handling of the R and want a 4 stroke get a 250r based hybrid

c41xracer...not a bad idea ive been thinking of that ...i have a 08 walsh 450r brand new lol never rode it bought it from honda did a few wheelies up and down and tore it apart put it together almost complete now but never rode it ..so i have both sitting and looking to get back into racing i love the handiling of the laeger ...but i rode my friends 450 well it was crf 450 walsh and the power was sick ....so i kinda lost intrest in the two stroke it was totally different no clutching just roll on the throttle lol...so i hybrid might not be bad ...how does the honda 450 all setup with walsh custom axis air handle compared to the laeger will i be dissapointed ???

a 450R will never be a 250R, stock vs stock if you upgrade suspension the 250R will handle better, let alone a aftermarket chassis. I have both, like both, but when it comes down to it I prefer the 250R. the 450R just seems bulky, lowering the subframe does wonders for them I've heard, but I have never personally done it to mine. when it comes down to it IMO its going to come down to rider choice, I don't feel that one machine is superior to the other, they both have their pros and cons.
