Sold my 250 last night.
Bought it for $2500, sold it for $2200. So, It is true, you can own one of these for a year or two and it will not cost you all that much. I'm so glad I had it as a first bike. It taught me a lot as did so many of you on this great forum.

@SLOWn60, I have already learned that sobering lesson! New tires, fork seals, and the 18k service later... Harmony was restored to our happy home now that I have the check in hand. How do you like the Rotax 800?

A little mechanically noisy but it's been a very reliable & strong engine. 60k trouble free.

good deal! Yeah buying the used 250's in this area is the way to go just like you said it. Buy it and sell it later for damn near the same price. Congrats on the new bike as well.
