hey i am 13 years old , 5' 5" , and 120 pounds. Ive never ridden a dirtbike before but i want to get one. I am deciding between the honda crf150f or the crf230f. I dont know if the 230 will be too much for me to handle or not. I dont want to outgrow the 150 quickly.

thanks

i got a crf 150 its reliable but im about 5,6 and about 135 pounds and i am out growing its pretty fast but if i were you i woulf rather be looking at the yamaha ttr 230 its more reliable and also more cheaper...

yeah i know ill outgrow the 150 fast so now im deciding between the honda crf230f or the ttr 230. Do both have push start buttons?

go for the ttr 230. awesome bike for begginners that u wont grow out of. i have got one i hadent been ridin for 3 years and it suited me perfect!!! they both have electric starts 2 but no kickstart :(...

yeah il look at some ttr 230s

neither the crf230f or the ttr230 have backup kickstarts?

the honda crf230 needs you to put a key in before it will start otherwise you need to take of the fuel tank and hot wire it.

the 230 is a very reliable bike, never gave me any trouble at all. and if you think you are to small for it you are deffinatly wrong, i am 14 years old, 5 foot 7 and about 130lbs and already outgrew it. i am actually trying to get rid of my 230 right now, i bought a bigger bike and owe my dad some money, if you are interested in buying one give me a call (860)653-5109 or email me at jfrome147@cox.net. it is a very very clean bike with very low hours and looks and runs brand new. i can email pictures if you want.
