    crf250X or crf450X

    not R cause if you want trail, they made the X for it

    if first bike--> 250x
    if you already rode a bike---> 450X

    well I'm 6' and i ride the 450R and i weigh 154...its a great bike for me i love it. Lately all i have been riding is trails and its a fun bike. however if you are just looking to do trails you might want to look into the 450 X which i believe is set up better for that kind of riding...

    :shock: I know someone who weighs more, riding the 150R. Does your 450 even know it has a rider on it? :D That's awesome, more power to you.

    Well i am about 5'8 and 140 pounds and ride a 250R its a blast anywhere you ride it and in my opinion the gearing makes tight wood trails far more fun gives u much more get up and go compared to a 250X but if your lookin for a 450 the X is the way to go i think
