and my 1991 

same size engine,turned around,shaft drive,electric start,rear drum brakes?...wtf!!

twice as much as mine $$$$$ in 1991...and more heavier!

I think the engines are different sizes though.  If I remember right, the 250x is 246cc and the 250ex is 229cc.  The 300ex is a bored out 250x.  I'm pretty sure the engines are the same, only the jug is bigger on the 300 (282cc).  They bumped it up 36cc and added a starter.  I guess that's where the E comes from in EX.

I'm not sure which weighs more.  My 250ex is 350lbs.  I weighed it myself.  My quadsport is a little over 300lbs.  I can bunny hop it with the engine off.  The 250x is probably in the middle of the two.

The shaft drive really sucks.  I put bigger tires on hoping to go faster, but it didn't make much difference... I'm still searching for 6th gear lol

I'm a cat man myself, but my backup is an 83 185s. Can't beat a machine that fires up on one pull even after sitting for a long while.
