whats the difference between the crf150r small wheel and big wheel models?

i thought it was just the wheel size but today i heard there was more to it.

the difference between a big wheel and a small wheel has a little more to it but not much. a big wheel is for one for taller people not only that since it is set up for a larger person the suspension is stiffer, sprocket is bigger, and the gearing is taller meaning it has a little bit more power. meaning they go a little faster, no the motor isnt bigger it just has more rotation from the larger wheel meaning that the bike will go farther on one rotation of the sprocket. aslo traction is better it handles sand and ruts better a regular size wheel is just a stock size, although the big wheel is also stock it was brought in after the small wheel to accompany larger people. it has the same components as the big wheel just down sized
