Depending on your size, you might want to try a modded 125 first. A 250 with a pipe, and a rad valve will fly, its WAY faster than my stock banshee. They are super fun though, I've been riding for about 4 months now, and I get really frustrated because I can't wheelie or clear 85 footers, or rail berms, or fly over whoops. It takes a lot of practice, like 250rhater said, but they are definately fun. Try to get one that has been taken care of too. They also feel way high compared to a banshee. And ATV stunter, youre not too big for a bike, my dads friend is 6'6 and wieghs about 270, he FLIES. The modded 250s haul balls.
