i would go with the 230. im 5'8 and 132lbs and i ride a 200. i used to have a 125 and it was WAY too small. i rode my friends 150 and even that was small. so i think the 230 would be good. the 250 is too big and heavy for stuntin, and its made for racing

Re: which one should i buy too practice stunting!!!

I'm 6'4" 210#......I was in the same boat......50 is too small and I wanted to ride some dirt......got the crf 230, had it jetted, uncorked, and a full BBR exhaust out the door for under MSRP......since I've added front and rear BBR springs, BBR triple clamp, BBR linkage, twinair filter, bars, bark busters, and a BBR skid plate......thing is great on the trails and excellent for practicing clutching it up......I also had a friend fab up a bar for the back....good place for a foot and it stops from ripping the exhaust off when you loop......all of this and I'm still at least 1500 under MSRP for the 250.....DO IT

Yeah I know.....but that's a $1200 set up......bikebandit.com has street tires that'll fit the stock rim......but like I said I like to ride trails as well.......so right now it's a dual purpose whip......but it gets the job done......just got new tires/tubes for it and I want to put the sidewinder sprocket set on it as well with a lighter chain......then it'll be perfect for my needs.
