I weigh 150 pounds and am looking for a dirt bike that i can use, but still is a little big incase i grow more.
Are any of these bikes good: Suzuki DR-Z250, Honda CRF-230F, Yamaha TTR-230, or Kawasaki KLX 300R.
Any help is welcome.
Thank you for reading

I would recommend the CRF250X. It is a bit larger than the 230, much more powerful, and it is a bike that a beginner can ride comfortably and grow into. A WR250F is also a good choice, as is a KTM 250-F-XCW or KTM 400XCW. The Kawasaki KLX300R is also a good choice. You might be happy with the TTR230 or CRF230 for a short time, but I think your skills will grow out of them too fast. Another good choice is the Honda XR400. They don't make them any more, but they are extremely reliable and a used one will not drop much in value over the next few years.

I would go with the Honda crf 230. its a great and reliable bike, plus it has an electric start!!!! plus if you eventually want some extra power out of it, there are many aftermarket modifications that you can buy to hop it up!!!!

I'd go with the Honda. They are more dependable and have a better resale for when you want to move up. All the magazines seem to lean towards them, also. But, honestly, the best bike for you is one that fits your riding style and body dimensions. Not to mention your wallet.
