Answer 1

whatever you do, DO NOT buy an off brand bike. if something breaks on it, you will have one h**l of a time trying to find parts to fix it! just go on

www.craigslist.com and find something used.

Answer 2

Look into a used Yamaha 125 TTR

They are 4 stroke, not mixing gas!!!

And they are easy to learn on, and fun when you know what your doing too.

I've been riding for over 20 years now and I love the one I got for my son, I can ride a wheelie all over on it.

Answer 3

i wouldnt advise getting a off brand bike,

id go with a yamaha ttr 125 since they are nice and reliable and a really god bike to learn on, they sit lower than the YZ 125 which makes it easier to control.

id advise checking out your local craigs list for dirt bikes, if you do be sure to test ride the bike before you buy it! sometimes used bikes have some malfunctions in them that the owners dont notice such as a wearing clutch or cracking tires.  

Good luck on your hunt.
