What is the consensus on this bike for moderate offroad? There are OHV trails near me here and want to get some offraod riding in. I have an RX4 but wouldn't take it on anything rougher than a fire road over a pass or gravel road. I talked to Joe Henner about the RXB 250L efi, the Kayo K4 and the GPX FSE250E and had almost decided to bite the $bullet$ and go with the GPX but I just cannot dump that much right now.

I see that Thumper said that one would appreciate the M if it was being jumped, why is that? I honestly would rather have the 6 speed gearbox. I rode and raced motocross for a lot of years so what even I get will be in the air from time to time. Now I won't be "sending it" over 70-90' doubled like I did before I hit my 50's but at 6' 3" and 235# even a 20-30' jump will be more than the likes of the CSC TT250 would take with the suspension.

Am I expecting too much from a low budget china bike? Any way, the price and ascetics have my interest piqued.
