I think that when talking about what is appropriate for a kid moving to a full size bike, if weight is a consideration, get the kid a nice Husky or YZ 125. Its a good idea anyway, to teach throttle/clutch control and momentum. My son is a tall, strong 13 yr old. He can ride my '07 250 with no problems even in technical rocky terrain, and yes he has dropped it and picked it up with no drama. He would have no issues with the 200, but might learn more on a 125.

We have similar issues...tall 13 y/o's. (5'-9", he'll be 13 the end of Jan.) I ended up getting him a '13 200 (of a different color). Coming off a 105, I felt going to a 125 would almost be going backwards when you factor in the power to weight ratio.

2 GG riders at the scratch podium in the 1st race of the Spanish Enduro :
1 25 CERVANTES MONTERO, IVAN ENDURO 2 KTM MC. Segre 48:27'010 2 43 MCCANNY , DANNY ENDURO 3 GAS-GAS 49:05'900 3 51 THAIN , RODRIG ENDURO 3 GAS-GAS 49:15'010 Danny won the E3 class ahead of Thain. I'm really surprised with Thain that coming from a 4ST easily adapt to the 300 and placed 2nd in E3 . Fabian planet and the Sherco placed 4th overall scratch . http://www.theclockstaff.com/2013/RF...a2/scratch.pdf

Thain in the podium on day 2 of Chile's WEC round. He placed 3rd and missed the same spot on day 1 by mear 0.57 sec. Shows how good he adapt to the 300 and I think it also shows "how easy" the bike might be.
Danny also had a good round on the Junior class with 2nd place on day 1 and 5ht on day 2 after a close encounter with a tree that caused him some pain throughout the rest of the day . A good overall result for GG ! PS - notice that both are currently using the 48 Zokes :-)...
