Well first off i started riding dumont with a cr250 back in the good ol day of 93 when pres day looked like an off weekend
I like the raptor but to be honest with ya at the clean up it sat in the back of my truck !
Pres day i took it out once to the meet n greet.
I Pretty much cruise around in the rhino.
As for size 5' 9" 150 lbs
as for experience was upper intermediate .
I recently had an rm250 that i got rid of for the raptor but since getting the rhino i for some reason could care less on getting on the raptor.
I've always been a two wheel guy . Plus the kid still has his 90 quad i use to following him around till he's ready to be set free with the throttle.
Also one of the reason for getting back into riding/ racing two wheels is getting the kid into raceing eventually and me also get back into racing ( father son type thing :breakdance: ).
I have experience with 2 stroke 125's 250's & 500's but not the fourstrokes. I've always loved riding 125's but don't want to deal with the constant rebuilds & i know the 250f was released to phase out the 125 but just not sure of the power for hitting the sand
If it has at least the power of a 250 two stroke i think i'd be happy .
