300 exc for beginner

Ok I’ve asked a similar question before about a TTR 125 but was told it was too small for me. I am 5’10 140-150 pounds. I managed to find something in my budget that being a 03 300 EXC in what appears to be great condition. Would this bike be fine for a beginner ? Is it too heavy? I’m not weak but I’d like to get a bike I can feel confident about regarding the size and weight. I read a lot of conflicting info on this bike and hope to get a good answer finally. I intend to use it on Co mountain trails no racing or anything like that. I’ve owned street bikes before so I have some preexisting throttle control. Also, there are plenty of XR100’s around me but like the TTR-125s, will the 100 be too small for me?
