Honda recently came out with their crf150r(not to be confuse with the 150f).  Cr85 frame with a 150 4 stroke motor.  Decent power and about 70 pounds lighter than the 230.  Available in a big wheel version also.

The 230 is heavy pig in my opinion.  The lack of power and suspenion have detured alot of people.
A 230 in the sand is going to make everyone unhappy.  Overweight and underpowered = not going anywhere for a while.  Had a friend who didn't listen and bought a ttr 225 or 250.   Went to the dunes in Idaho and stayed at camp becuase it would go anywhere.  When we got home he traded it in on a wr450.
