[QUOTE="altagirl, post: 693678, member: 40384"] I'm 5'8" and started this spring on a DR-Z250. Four-stroke and electric start made it really easy to learn. Never thought it was too big for me and haven't had trouble picking it up. Sooner or later I'd like something bigger, but it's been fun so far. But I have a friend who is the same height as me but she is just super skinny - so she can barely touch her feet to the ground on my bike because when she sits on it, her weight doesn't compress the suspension AT ALL(obviously not set up for her - so you could probably fix that part). And she definitely can't pick it up. She tried learning on an XR250 and she hated it - same situation. Then she got a CRF230F and loves it - rides much more aggressively because she's not scared of the bike - she can pick it up, move it around... Plus she's so light that the fact that it's less powerful doesn't mean much. [/QUOTE]
