After not having a bike for about 7 years I think the time has come I am ready to get another bike. My last bike was a 09 CRF250R and I always had Honda’s in the past so I am leaning towards another Honda, but am really looking to see what everyone is paying for left over 250F’S. I have gotten some prices for left over 2018 CRF250R’s but most of the dealers are still wanting over 7,000 OTD. Anyone have a good location around Ohio that is willing to work a little on price?
I was looking at the 2018 because the electric start does sound nice, but I am also a little Leary of the some of the issues I have heard about them. I do remember the 09 was always a pain to start even after doing valves, do the newer EFI bikes start any easier? What are some options of the 17’s vs 18’s.
Will mostly just be riding some practice mx days on the weekends and consider myself a novice in speed. Might do some light trail riding at a friend’s place.
