What is the difference between a 2003 280 TXT and a 2003 280 PRO, especially for a novice rider. What should I be looking for ( or not ) when buying

Thank you for the advise

In 2003 there were two models of 280.

the TXT Edition 280 and the TXT PRO 280

 

the TXT Edition 280 had the older engine and frame.

The 2003 TXT PRO 280 had the new pro engine and the new frame.

(I have a 2003 PRO 300 and has been very reliable, the 2002 bikes were the first year for the PRO and were not very good, but some had been retrofitted with upgraded parts)

And the two are quite different bikes. FOr beginners and old skool type riding the older model is better (and almost indistructable), the newer is lighter and more agressive (but needs more money for maintainance and parts).
