<div>the 150R is a little rocketship and is a very high performance machine. As such, it will need more maintainance than the crf230. Basic oil changes and clean air filters every time you ride but you also need to keep up on the valves being adjusted and replacing the piston and rings every so often.</div><div> </div><div> The CRF230 is more of a classic four stroke in that it is in a milder state of tune and doesn't require near the maintainance the 150R does. It will die an ugly death as well though if oil changes aren't done and air filters aren't changed.</div>

If you are going to be racing motocross then get the CRF150R. If you are going to be goofing around and trail riding get the CRF230.
