loogie and stubz both ride street... if you are tall the 250 will probably be too small IMO

size shouldnt matter, sure the 250 fits me perfect but ryan stephen is a 6 footer and he did fine on it, it is a turd on power compared to 450s but depends on if your only stunting or actually riding streets for any length of time, i ride mine all over hell and ive never had to work on a single thing other than general stunt part add ons and custom exhaust and such. 450 would be nice as just a stuntbike with little street stunt but not a street cruiser thats for sure. your not gonna get the miles out of a 450 like you can the 250, theres plenty of the 250s out there with well over 25,000 miles on um and all original youd go through 4 or 5 motors on a 450 in that timeframe im sure.
if they made the 450x or wr450f in fuel injected models id build one but i wont own anything with a carb, FI is where its at. 250 will help you learn a lot of shit in a hurry i can vouge for that. just wish theyd have built it in a 350 itd be just about perfect. a 310 kit is about to be released though with the same 3 ring style piston as the stock one so that should make the 250 a much better bike all around, not that it isn't a great bike right now cuz i love mine, funnest bike ive ever owned by far.
i dont do a ton of street riding mainly just small stunt rides with a few F4I's around the countryside but i ride it to work every day i can only about 10 miles each way but ill have 3000 miles on mine by end of year.

i'm sure it will help but just like 2 strokes they do need to be freshened up after a while, mx bikes are just so strung out.
that video you put up of the urban moto on the 250 is sick, that alone shows a lot of what can be done on any supermoto

sucks trying to get video, go pro only looks good when a little is used in my opinion then it becomes to much but its so easy when you can do all the filming yourself and not have to rely on others to come help ya. i dont have shit for urban around my area which sucks, couple small stair sets that just look cheesy on video lol
