Anyone tried a YZ125 2T for trail/technical riding?

yep!! sigh so many to chose from!! ha ha. So far I think the FE350 is fitting my idea riding. Wide gear ratio can hit speeds 70 75 mph when I need to trail hop, and light and powerful enough for enduro/trail type riding


I was looking at KX as well but dont think a MX bike is best for trail riding sadly...well maybe for fast paced? because MX bikes have wider ratios usually right

Powerful but narrow power band. Revs need to be kept high to move at a good clip.

I rode a YZ125 for years, high school to early college years. Always on the trail. In the old days, we rode what we had, any where we wanted to ride. Easier times

thanks all....seems a YZ250X seems to be the "enduro/trail" model vs the YZ250F

urghh so hard to chose which bike!! been months and I still dont know haha. Was looking at the CRF250X as well.
