Im 150 pounds, 15 yrs old, what kind of dirtbike should i buy? I already have a cr85 expert now thats outgrown

Question

im 150 pounds, 15 yrs old and i wanna get a new dirtbike. I ride a cr85 expert 2 stroke dirtbike now but am looking to jump to a new bike that will last me for a long time that is more powerful, what do you reccomend?

Answer 1

i am 16 years old and have a crf50 fully tricked out.  i tested out a 2006 crf250r. its sweet. i am thinking about getting one. i recommend the crf250r. its nice and it also has dual pipes.

Answer 2

Your height makes a big difference too.

   The kid I ride with next door, he is 15, and 150 as well! He is like 5'6"/ He has a KX250! That bike is the perfect size so he can use it for ever. I can almost say a 250 is to much

   So a cr125, yz125, rm125, kx125, sx125. Those are all the brands of dirt bikes, all almost the same.. In other words, get a 125. Since I love 2-stroke, I asume you like it to, stay with them, as long as you can (only a few more years left before they're all gone!)

(I dont know why some people give me negititve fedback, what did I do?)

Answer 3

Honda CRF150 R

Answer 4

I would suggest a CR 250 if you think you can handle it - you won't ever outgrow it until you trade it in for a street bike :)

Answer 5

i recomend a 250f or a cr125

Answer 6

Your height and weight make no difference; it's your tolerance for power.  Just try some friends bikes.  Personally, I adore 2-strokes and thankfully live in a state where they're still legal.  I have 2 Honda CR 250s and a Yamaha YZ 125.  My 125 is my baby; first one I owned, so I can't get rid of it.  So, as you see, I'm stuck to one brand, it's just whatever feels right underneath you.  When you're flying 60 feet at 45 mph, what are you going to do?  Trust a brand name, or trust what feels right.  You should look into a used 125 or 250F to see what you like right now.  Obviously your 85 is a 2-stroke, so you'll be more apt to stick with that because you know how they feel/ride.  Plus, if you buy used, you won't lose as much if you don't like opposed to buying new.  Keep cool and make sure to stay in the air!  Metal Mulisha 4 LIFE!

Answer 7

Go with a crf250r thats what i ride and im only 5 foot 6 and weigh 120 pounds and if you want the bike to last you long go with the 250 four stroke because the 150 isnt much bigger of a bike then the 85 and it wont last you very long and the 250 should last long and its a fun bike to ride.

Answer 8

Go for the next step up onto a 125! all the manufactures make one so take your pick according to your taste! these can last you along time! you could find a 250 or 4 stroke a bit to savage at your age!
