I don't know bro, I'm thinkin an 80 big wheel isn't gonna be enough for you...cause I'm small, and even I wish I could have some more power than my 125 puts out...and it's ported, pipe, silencer, CF reeds...you name it. It's quick for a 125, but a 250 would be damn nice. Don't expect to climb any decent hills on an 80.

crucial. I worked at a bike store so I will give you some advice.
Generally 2 strokes are for racing only. They liked to be held wide open most of the time and lack bottom end. Thus you must always feather the clutch.
4strokes, while are used in racing also, and much easier to ride. They have a very smooth broad power that goes all the way accross the powerband. You can lug these around and not worry about the plug fouling, unlike the 2 strokes. If you're going to be in the wood and definetly plan on not racing, I think you would be foolish not to get a 4 stroke.
I reccomend you pick up a 01-03 yamaha wr250f. Its got the light, 18 inch rear wheel(excellent for traction in the woods), and a awesome tranny for the woods. And if you're conserned about riding height, you can do several things. 1. Shave the seat foam off the seat, that gives you 2 inches, and you can also buy a smalller spring=4 inches or so. Plus the wr has a throttle limiter and a exhaust baffle so when you learn on it you can leave those in and when you get better, take them out. When you take them out you will see mad hp increase. Plus 4 strokes run on straight 94 gas, so no need for expensive pre-mix.
