    Well thats gonna be a personal preference answer. Your best bet would be to find someone with a 350x that will let you ride it.
    I personally have an 85 250r and a 86 350x. I had the x for over a year then got the R. I haven't touched my X since. The suspension on my R is sooo much nicer and it does just as well in the tight stuff as the X did. Plus its faster.
    Like I said best way to decide is to ride one.
