'07 YZ250F in November or '07 250SXF Now??

[Z mann R2]

OK, some of you may know, I have an order placed for a White '07 YZ250F....well the dealer had told us that it would be in at the end of august or early September....well I did some calling around and found out that they aren't gonna be in until November! Also, I found that the '07 KTM 250SX-F's are in NOW! So, question to you guys, should I wait for the YZ? Or get the Katoom now, I know the KTM's this year have all new body and suspension.....so what do you guys think?

The '07 YZ250F in November?


or the '07 250SX-F Now?

YZ for sure

well, do you have a bike now? If so, is it running ok? Are you in a hurry for any other reason?

Both bikes look great and have some nice features. KTM 250sx and 450sx has been revised and improved a lot, but Yamaha is tried and true since 2001.
Any bike can have issues though, like yamaha's intake valves breaking in yz250f '06 models which they are taking care of via delears and service bullitens. Now that KTM has gone with e-start I'd be interested how well they start hot, when stalled...how the new bike handles...the 450sx is really improved according to transworld mx's first impression and must be hot started in nuetral like most 4 strokes.

If not in a hurry, I'd wait for the mags to review them and ride a couple of my favorites if possible before throwing down the $6000-$6,500. my 2 cents

If I didn't have a bike, I think I couldn't wait, and the SX-F is a great bike.

I'd go sx-f
