The height is unnecessary.

Weight should be light.

atleast 5'11

Answer 4

You will be fine on a YZ125 OR YZ250.  They are about the same size height wise.....my buddy races a CR125 and hes like 5'7".  Just may need a bit of a suspension tune

Answer 5

I have a 125 and i am only 5'7" i ave a friend with a 250 and i ride it is a perfect fit. so go ahead. all bikes 125 and up are so hard to make out there speed.

Answer 6

height is unnecesary as long as you can touch the pegs, but you arent gonna stay upright when you stop.
