Recently I’ve been tossing around the idea of getting a new 250f but completely lost out which route I should go. I’m not a fanboy of any certain brand so whichever brand fits me best is the one I’ll try going after. I’m 5’10 about 170ish, your average weekend warrior and skilled rider. I’m really interested in the new crf250rs but the exhaust is kinda a buzz kill. The ktm is on top of the list but the price compared to the other bikes makes me wanna lean away from them. The yz250f is a bike I’m really interested in but it seems like a more bulky bike that would fit taller riders. What’s everyone’s opinion?

Also, found this picture online, pretty self explanatory

This guy sounds like a candidate for a Yamaha or Kawi.
Id maybe wait until next year to see if they get the updates the 450 got this year if thats a concern. The 18 450 has some great updates and is narrower.
Have you considered a 350? I have a 17 Husky 350. I love the bike, more power and is super easy to ride all day long. I got the rebate on a left over one and saved some money that way. I hated the air forks but got a spring conversion done and have made some adjustments and its been good ever since. Just a thought on a bike that has a little more power and I feel like is a better fit for what I do and my weight. I won't ever need a 450 but the 350 is a great step up over the 250.

Please reread my initial post, and summon your infinite wisdom to show me where I mentioned KTM? Your absolute hate for the brand is hilarious. My garage is filled with green with a sprinkle of orange BTW .
If you could read, and not be blinded by your bias, you could see I told him to look at blue or green.
