[QUOTE="firecracker22, post: 200153, member: 20316"] Repeat after me: Electric start bad. Electric start bad. Electric start bad. With the exception of the KTMs, all other electric start bikes are excessively heavy: case in point TTR 225 and DRZ 250. Would you rather learn how to kick or pick up a 280 pound bike? At 5'6", you're lucky to be tall enough to be able to kick start any bike, two stroke or four. It's a PITA but it's all about technique not strength. Plus, bikes like the TTR 225 (I hear the DRZ 250 is slightly more advanced) do not have suspension and handling that would make you happy. The YZ250F might be a handful at first but you wouldn't outgrow it. XR 250 is a nice calm but capable bike, a tad heavy but not like an electric start bike. Once again, don't count out 125s. They're not as bad as people think they are. I think they're fun! A flywheel weight will tone it right down. Heck, if I keep it, I'm putting a flywheel weight on my KTM. [/QUOTE]
