05 Honda cr50 or 99 cr85r?

What is better to learn on stunt wise/more fun to rip around on? Looking at picking up one or the other pretty much which one would be better to learn on and eventually transfer to a big bike? Pro's and Con's of both would be appreciated their gonna cost the same money wise.

IMO, i'd stay away from a 2-stroke engine. They dont take to stunting very well. Especially with keeping the wheel off the ground for long periods of time.....Get a 4-stroke xr/crf50 and consider it the only mini u will ever need for stunting....=-)

50's. Phiffty's all day long.

50's are definitely the shit to learn on...due to some of my fellow friends though, I shall be picking up a cr 85 or at least some sort of 2 stroke in the future

yeah, my YSR50 (2-stroke) is not the best for stunting, you can wheelie, but slow ones are super hard, and when you crash, the pipe is an exspensive thing to bust up and replace.

so i took out the stock 50 and tossed in an xr80 motor, slow as crap, but makes a good stunt bike now.

I laerned on a 50 they are the shit if you dont like the size of the 50 get a crf 150f or a ttr125L plus they are 4stroke 2 stroke is fun to stunt but way harder then most 4 strokes of same engine size

... but 50's are sick for stunting 2strokes are fun in the trails not for the stunts.
