A bike for my daughter

Hey all,
Been awhile.. i'm considering another China bike, but this time for my daughter. She's 15, about 5'6" and brand new to riding. I tried to teach her a few things and let her try a solo ride on my Beta 430 but it bested her when she mistakenly grabbed a handful of throttle and almost hit a tree.. doh..
I quickly realized that she will need something smaller, lighter and with much less power So i searched.. at first, and from experience i thought of the usual suspects, a Titan 250 or Templar 250 but they are too tall as well.. I then found a Xpro Storm 150 DLX that should fit the bill, it says its 180 lbs net, 19/16 wheels, lower seat height and it says its fast and can go 65+ mph.. for real?
Does anyone have experience with this bike? any cons i should know of other than the usual everything working itself loose, etc?
I have an email over to PSM to find out whether the MCO will say motorcycle or dirtbike but if anyone know would appreciate that info.
Thanks in advance!
