I'm 5'6", 125 lbs., and I'm 14 years old, what size dirt bike is best for me?

Question

I'm getting my first dirtbike and I don't know which size to buy.

Answer 1

well ... im 13, 5'3, 105... and i ride either a 125 cc, or a 95cc... but im giving up the 95.. so id reccomend a 125 for your first bike... also, yamaha in my opinionmakes the best bikes

Answer 2

i think your best bet would be either a...

   yamaha tr125

   honda crf150

   honda crf230

all three of these bikes are really durable and great starter bikes. for your height, i would go for either the crf150 or 230 by honda. the 230 would be a good bike to grow into and would be one step before a 250 of some type. all three bikes are very durable. depending on how experienced you are at riding, i would go with the crf230 by honda. great bike. and by the way...theres no such thing as a xr160 and xr170 like the person above me states.

Answer 3

yea i say a yz125 i have a yz80 and im 13 and 5'5 and my bike rips but i say 125

Answer 4

go to whatever store your gonna buy your bike from, find a salesperson, and sit on some bikes.

Answer 5

The KX 100 is the perfect bike size for you because your not schoolboy class rider yet you can handle something that is bigger than an 85 but I wouldn't get a 125 because if your racing you would be destroyed by the 250fs as much as I love two strokes it's the cold hard truth or if your just play/trail riding a two stroke is definetly not the way to go but what I really like about the kx 100 is it's great bottom end because when your in and out of corners you would swear that thing was a four stroke but on top it isn't as great i'm not telling you the kx 100 because I have it but because it is a top choice for YOU

Answer 6

i'd go like a honda xr 200

Answer 7

i'd say maybe a xr 160 or 170 cause i have one thats a 150 and your like 2 inches higher then me so yeah one of those

Answer 8

okay so theres this bike and its the yamah 2005 TTR-125 but it can be bored out to a 150cc which gives it extra power...and guess what...I HAVE ONE FOR SELL!!!! so im 15 now...and a girl but hey girls kick *** too...anyway so i started riding when i was 13 and i started on this bike and it was PERFECT to get started on and it already has kits on it and everything so you dont have to fiddle with it and it has ASV brakes and clutch so its perfect for those first crashes :] ...the only thing you have to do is change the plastics cuz they are pink(GIRL REMEMBER :]) haha any way i think it is just what you are looking for

link is down below :]

contact my dad if your interested

Answer 9

well im 5'6", 118lbs, and 15 years old and a beginner and i bought a honda crf 150f. it is a really good bike because i can touch the ground but i can also stand on the pegs and bend over pretty easily without hurting my back whereas a 125 is short. but if your not sure just go to a dealership and check out what you feel comfortable on

Answer 10

Yamaha YZ125F
