    , I'd personally go for a crf230 with an up graded headlight, super reliable, light with plenty of poke.
    I agree also having used all bikes mentioned and riding a crf everyday
    While not all that dissimilar in weight the crf carries the weight at a much better balance point, actually has brakes and suspension something most mentioned are lacking.

    Yup, I've ridden this CRF230, hugely impressed.

    I used to farm, if looking for a cheap bike get a TF125 or a AG200, The TFs are bullet proof and take a hell of a thrashing, the AG200 is a good slow cruiser but the 5-up gear box drives me nuts and the non-electric start model only has a 19in front wheel and handles like a dog.

    I also used to race MX so know what a good bike handles like, the CRF230 is on a whole other level from DR, TF, AG etc.
