Do I want a 50 or a 70 ?
I am 6 foot nothing and 220LBS I am buying a 50 or a CRF 70 to learn how to scrape 12 etc..
Would a 50 be OK with the 50stunt big bar kit and rear spring?
Or will I wish I spent the extra $$$ on a 70?

I'd go with a 50 or an 80. I don't like the 70.

You have to be going pretty fast to come out of it , and know when to hit the brake .
I guess you could get the feeling of hitting the 12 bar on a 50 , but it being such a small bike , you usually stop really fast when you are on the bar .
Of course , i have seen moorport (50Stunt owner) , hit the 12 bar in 3rd gear full throttle , and come out of it , and keep on wheelie'ing :YEAH
I guess it depends on how big your ***** are
A 70 isn't really that much more powerful than a 50 . Plus it's a little bigger and heavier . People can (and do) wheelie it though .
You being a large person (
) , it probably won't be hard to wheelie , if you sit back on the seat and hit the gas and pull on the bars . Last edited by Crazy D; Dec 24, 2007 at 08:16 AM.

i already had a 50 but my bike after that was a XR100 with XR80 front wheel, motard setup cause it feels closer to what my f4i and 450 feel like... its all personaly preference..
