Woah. definatley do not get a cr250.. DEFINATLEY not!! Maybe for your height you can try an 85cc two stroke such as yz85, kx85, ktm 85, rm 85...ect. If your looking for a 4 stroke try one of the brands 125cc four stroke models such as a drz-125L or a ttr125L. A crf150 might suit you well too.... good luck

get urself a cheap 200 dollar old bike. get used to the feel and all that good stuff. dont go for the 250 you would kill urself.

[sam the brave]

i think you are going to get hurt. why are you being rushed into it? if you have no experience about something and you have to rush into it its never a good thing. take your time, save your money and find something that fits you a little better.

if its your first bike, get something you can handle but make sure its used and cheap because chances are if youve never ridden you bike is going to get some punishment...i'd say maybe a yz80 or crf125...or if your not going to be doing a lot of mx try an xr100

[MY450R]

get a crf650 you can handle it fine

[400exdad]

Ever thought about a KDX200? They are a great woods bike, you can spend what you want on one, and the power is decent.

Your smaller and new to them. Get a used xr100 or 200.

[derekhonda]

DO NOT get a KDX 200 or 220 or KLX300 if you are short. Those bikes are monsters, bigger and heavier than 250 class bikes. Thats the bike i broke my shoulder on. Get a 125 class bike, great power, not too much, easily manageable, and light.

lmao......Hes got a point Jeff....:devil:

I was curious when I saw the picks on gnccracing.com? Why did you race such an old bike? Was it a bet or something? By the way I do think its awsome that you did so well on such an...er......uh......."aged" machine. :D

[FTR250Rnif]

thats an 86' cr250 isnt it? those "older" bikes rip!:D

[cdalejef]

Its an 87 and I raced it because I think it is just as competative as any new bike on the market and it only cost me $400.

[quadrider60]

i got a 2001 kx 125 for sale godd bike to start on let me know if your interested im lookin to get $1900
