if you your going to get any 4 stroke from 2004 then they all had some problems. was first year basically they realli did anything with the 4 strokes. the yami was better off then kawi and susuki but they were all equally heavy with the steal. save your pennies and go 06 and up

My friend I am on an 01 YZ 250F and love the bike the weight you wont notice when your moving but if you can afford to go newer do it. I will upgrade next year as I am looking to start into some racing but this bike was great to start on and the price was right runs like a top...

oh ok , thinking about getting one in bc! like it?

Yes i love it!! It has so much more power then i was expecting. Like i said in another tread first gear powerband is fast but the second is like holy sh!t cant hold on. Hard to get use to for trail riding. I would get another one but if you are used to 4 stroke you should be ready for change because it is very different. I had mine for a week and am still not comferably with going any speed on a trail yet.

thanks for telling me that cause i was gonna get one but now i will just a yz 125!:d

NO PROBLEM THey have speed but there just isnt the power for when you really need it. Its a good trail bike if u are just just trail riding. I trail ride but there is wups ((humps ridda thing) dont know how to spell it) and you can use a trail bike for wups and ask so as u start to hit jumps on a tt-r your going to snap the fram.
