Thanks for everyone who gave me some advice on the CRF450 and 250 models,
after talking to you guys I decided to go with the CRF450R and just so
happens ran across a guy who had one that he no longer wanted because his
son was switching to a KTM450SX. So I managed to pick it up my 2004 CRF450R
for $3900 with extra parts and all that stuff. Now I need to go ride
it..........

Hey have some National Pride, ride a Husaberg! Smile Actually that is a
smokin' deal -- but also for you, isn't the inflated price artificial
and mostly in tax? It's not a market-driven price, it's been
interfered by revenue-hunters.
My mom is intensely proud of her Swedish heritage but she is incapable
of seeing anything negative about socialism either...

Well it`s the same deal there, a used -04 bike, any brand costs around
6000-7000 dollar, some difrence due to engine size, often the 250 4-stroke
are more expensive, but Honda CRF 450, and YZ 450 are most expensive as a
used bike.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Good-grief!! Who can afford to live AND ride??
You gotta come over here, make some (ok, a big pile) money, and send
it to the poor-starving people in Småland! Smile That's what my Grandpa
and his brothers did.

You probably have more relatives here than you'd imagine! If they're
anything like mine, they know who YOPU are, and you'd have a lot of
fun -- probably wind up married...
