ok a 230 for a 50? but anyways just get a better suspension, if your serious into it get new forks off of a 65sx and the swingarm and it will make it like a mini moto dirtbike and will be able to handle your weight and you can race it.

whattt are you serious man! why would you trade. w/e. your hte man doing it. I would say there aint much you can do that isn't allready done. Short of getting a bigger frame, and a bigger engine lol. which would defeat the purpose. I htink that you could probably spend a couple hundred getting a shop to reinforce all the joints on the frame for you. and raising the suspension.. you can also get your pegs re positioned for a fee. I would save yourself a lot of trouble and get a kx 65. they are bigger. easier to get parts for. and tehir weight limit is quite high. plus they rip. but if your sticking with teh 50 i'd get it bored. ~pat
