Can someone help me with my Motocross selection?

Question

I'm 16 years old, 5'8",and 120pounds and a male, I'm looking into doing Motocross. So I need help picking a bike. I want a Suzuki to race with but I'm unexperienced. So I'm not sure if I should stay with a Suzuki or another company. So I need as much help as possible.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

your probably gonna need a 250f or a 125 2 stroke (id get the 250f) and you can still get a suzuki thare no different from any other brand but i wouldnt get a ktm cuz the parts are alot more expencive than others. the bike you should get is a RM-Z 250f. good luck.

Answer 2

I also will go with the 250F

KTM is just marketing

Answer 3

KTM makes the best dirtbikes, plain and simple. Look into some of those, and like previously stated, you either need a 250 4 stroke or a 125 2 stroke, possibly bigger.  

Answer 4

For a first bike I would get the rm125 The reason I say it is the bike is easier to ride than the four stroke it starts easier it is easier and cheaper to fix. Now this is coming for a 45+ vet that rides a 250 f  

Answer 5

You would need to look at a 250f as you are too old for racing anything smaller.  Any of the known brands is fine for a beginner and one particular brand, over another will not make a difference as you won't be riding the bike to optimum.  Do make sure you get some lessons if possible and don't attempt to race till you have quite a bit of seat time on the bike as they are quite powerful and you need to know what you are doing first.

Answer 6

Get an RM125
