Drz 400e/250

So my bank is really dragging their feet about this loan for the F4i, and its making me think about going elsewhere. My friends credit union is a little better about loans.

But in the meantime I have been thinking about cheaper options for worst case scenario. I just need SOMETHING to ride by about 3 weeks from now. The one that I've been reading on is the DRZ400E. I've been seeing some 2000-2003 models in the $1400-2100 range. Or newer DRZ250s for the same coin.

So, what does everybody think? Good bikes? I will most likely be running back roads, not much off road stuff. I'm 6' 1'', 280 lbs, should I not even think about the 250 and just go for the 400? Any comparable models from the other brands? I'm not going to lie, I've never really ventured far out of my sportbike box......
