Hi. I'm thinking about buying a 150, as I am currently on a Yz85. My primary question was whether or not I should get the 150R or the big wheel expert version? I am 5 foot 4 120lbs and I am sitting flat footed on the 85 right now. I'm a girl, but just looking to move up to a 4 stroke for something different, or even the bigger version of the 150. What would you recommend?

either get the bigger 150r, or a 250f.

My kid is 8 and rides a 150R, we stepped the seat a bit, slid the forks up in the clamps and he's golden. Get the 150RB big wheel.

im a female and im the same height as you. i owned a 250f and it was too tall for me and so it was hard to start. i would go with the 150rb. you will sit comfortable on it.

The small wheel 150r is no taller than an 85. Get the big wheel.

definently the big wheel. i'm 5' 3" and i sit almost flat footed on my friends 150rb. I've heard the big wheel handles a little better too, probably because of the bigger tires.

150rb all the way
the crf150r is just as big as your yz85, maybe a weee-bit bigger but still

the big wheel has a longer wheel base which helps it track straighter and hold lines a little better. the big wheel also feels more balanced to some people.
