Go with the Honda 250ex if you can.

It's got the best all-around features and feel for a novice and is rider friendly. The Suzuki QS 250 is a nice option too, both are pretty similar except I think I read the '05 Quad Sport has a manual clutch now as opposed to an auto.

MOST important is sitting on some seats and getting a feel of the ergonomics. Some will suit you better than others and how you feel on the machine is more important than anthing else really.

might as well go with the manual trans with manual clutch so you don't have to relearn later on...

I would reccomend a trailblazer 250. They're cheap and give pretty good performance for what it's made for. As you get older you can eventually mod it and make a pretty darn quick wheeler. One of my friends, who is 16, started modding his as he got older and that would put a 400 in the dust.
