    I'm thinking of replacing my KTM 250xc with a wr250 or 300. Mostly will be for East Coast endoros. With the orange bikes I like the 250 for racing and 300 for trail riding. 6'4'' 210 lbs +50 B rider.Thanks.

    WR250. The 250 has more than enough power for the woods, the 300 is ridiculous and IMHO might wear you out and make you slower in a race in tighter woods. I have always perfered the 250's over the 300's from any brand. EZer ride, vibrate less, eat less fuel, more flickable etc while still having plenty of power.

    I'll have to agree with these guys.

    If you were 30 something and racing GNCC's or WORCS all the time, I might lean toward the 300.
