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 are definitely the **** 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 **** 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

haha pretty biased forum to askin considering its the 50 section... but 50's are sick for stunting 2strokes are fun in the trails not for the stunts.
