Fixed it for you... not trying to be pedantic, but having owned a 250L, they are pretty slow turds that weigh too much to be considered a serious offroad bike (though they are seriously reliable). The LXR also doesn't need engine rebuilds constantly like a 250R. The LXR has more power (than the 250L) and I think like 60 lbs less weight, and basically has a KTM chassis. For my money, I'd consider an LXR, but also Pitster Pro is coming out with a 450 this year, I think I'm save my shekels for that, because if its anything like the 250, it will be a good balance of performance, reliability, and modernity, because there really isn't anything that comes close without doubling the price.
