It’s a question that is asked over and over by riders looking to step up from their 125s: “should I go a 250f or a 450f?” and given that modern bikes are very different beasts from even a few years ago, we thought we should do our best to get an answer out of an infinitely variable equation; and probably piss a few people off in the process.
There really is not a single answer to this question, and a lot of things have to be taken into consideration if you’re going to buy the right moto. 250fs are often (mistakenly) seen as a bit of a soft version
