[QUOTE="Bryce R, post: 43122, member: 345"] Hey guys I'm trying to figure out a bike for a rider that is 5'2" Weighs in about 110#. Its for a beginner but I want performance. So no TTR-230, CRF230's, XR200's. I think they lack in a million ways. I haven't desided on 2 stroke or 4. Guess I need some clarification on some things there. I'm told I have to rejet the 2 stroke constantly. Like if I go riding in the desert at 2300 feet then go to the mountains and ride at 6000-8000 feet I have to rejet the 2 stroke? Okay so I need that clarified. The bike needs to be able to pick up the front tire on demand. Then I want it to have some good suspension. I'm thinking along the lines of a race bike.
