half a tire right Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) I wouldn't know for sure but 6.1 and 290??? on a Gasser 200!! me thinky, it go snapp! If your hooked on a Gasser,,maybe a older 321. A man your size should buck-up and check out a Beta or Monty. Just my opinion.

copemech Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 The newer 200 pro's will work, the older ones are a bit weak for a big boy, but gentle! You would be amazed what they can do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your hooked on a Gasser,,maybe a older 321. My lad had a 2001 Gas Gas 200 and I lent it to an Expert pal of mine a few times who's around 250lb and it coped brilliantly.

bigfoot Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 I'm about your weight and borrowed my sons 125 (2004) for the first three club trials this year. I won my class in the two of them and came third in the other. I'm not that good a rider either. I think the 200 should be fine for a starter.
