Re: 250 4stroke info?

basically an oil change after every ride
oil filter every other oil change
clean air filter
check all bike over

top end keep valves all checked on and maintenance done well because if something breaks your talking big money

and full rebuild never did one didnt hav a bike longer than season

Re: 250 4stroke info?

What kind of year bikes are you looking at?

The reliability of the bike could just come down to whoever owned it before.
They're all good bikes but one could last for ages, but get a mistreated one and it could grenade it's self a week later.

As for the twins, they're just for looks.

(From a magazine article)

WHAT’S IT DO? In truth, we can’t think of a single benefit to Honda’s twin muffler design. It isn’t all that quiet, doesn’t make as much power as a comparable single-sided exhaust, costs 50 percent more to replace and weighs 1-1/5 pounds more than a single. So, why is it on the CRF250? Ask Honda’s marketing department and they will give you some malarkey about roll rates and weight bias. The only justifiable reason is that the “twice pipes” look cool.
