    Unhappy Too big?

    I'm 5'11 140 lbs. 14 years old. Am I too big for my raptor 250?

    it'll handle the weight, but i am the same siz and 14, i ride my 400ex. i'd say it's too small engine-wise, but size won't hurt.

    I would say you are too tall.
    The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.
