Im new to the forums so Hia all, im a novice rider. I had a TY250 for a few years until it finally exploded Thumbs Down

So now a few years on and i think its time for me to get a new bike. Id like something sturdy and fairly easy to ride with enough power. I rode a YZ250 a while ago and the power was perfect and it handled fairly well, but i fell off the back a few times as im not as good with a throttle as id like to be . But my price range is 1200 Max so a YZ250 is out of the Q.

id like something that i can find parts for easily and has stood the test of time well.

What can the experts recommend??

PS: i also have a brain definciency that causes me to pull the throttle too hard most of the time. So im usually sat winded and not riding Very Happy

i bet that you could get a yz250 for 1200 it may be a earliy 90s one but they havent realy changed much since then.

You could get a late 90s yz for that sort of money, the 250 2 strokes dont sell for much used.
