Unfortunately, I've had to change the policy of allowing anyone to anonymously comment on content on this site.

This is primarily due to Casio spammers posting thousands of comments over the last week or so. Most of them are removed automatically, or manually by myself.

Unfortunately, once again its the minority who will affect the majority in a negative way.

Assist us, and other websites by simply saying NO to online gambling. Maybe they'll eventually get the message.

05' crf/x 250

I own a Ca. model crf//x 250 and I'm looking for more power. I opened the air box, cut the gray wire, fmf power bomb header and Q pipe, changed the main jet to a 140 & pilot to a 45, added power now & power now plus but I still tap out the rev limiter and have to shift alot. Is a crf cam the way to go or should I look for a big bore kit ? I love this bike I just need a bit more power. Any tips ? Dirty Al

My take

My take on this Al is that you should probably stop spending money on the 250f, and trade it on a 450f.

Doing anything more to the 250 will just reduce its reliability. You could grab a stock 450f, have more power and not have to spend any money at all.

Sure, it weighs a little more, but thats the price you pay.

I had a slightly modded WR250F (pipe, yz cam) and have gone went to a Husky 510 for the reasons above.

Light small capacity bikes are fun, and make you feel like a champion cause you've got it flat stick everywhere, but there is no substitute for cubic inches in the power stakes.
