I can't comment on the 200, but I did ride the 250 before I got
a can't pass up deal on my berg.

I rode a friends 250 XC, and I'd would say it handles and
starts like a dream.

What $$ range are you looking at?

hey rpm, i currently have a 03 200 exc,and find it very fun.It will comfortably keep up with a 250,it does sign off pretty quickly in the top end,but if ya want to go 140 ks /80 ml/h get a big 4 stroke.It handles like its on rails and is very light,i cant really say anything bad about it.I just fitted a fmf gnarly exhaust on it and rode it last weekend,once again highly recomend getting one of these.Mind you it didnt stop it from high siding me and copping 2 broken ribs.......lol--good luck mate!!1
