What kind of dirt bike should I get?

Question

Mostly guys would know about this.

Im really into the moto cross and I would like to get a little dirt bike to learn on but I dont want to get a monster horse like a 450 or a 500. I was told I should get like a 80 but to me even they are too big so I was thinking more of like a 50.

What is a good make and model to get. I would be getting a new one not a used piece of c**p.

Any info will help in my purchasing dicission.

Answer 1

Yamaha TTR125 or Kawasaki KLX125.

Answer 2

try a xr 80 honda. 4 stroke, not overly powerful. not as big as 2 stroke 80's

Answer 3

Really need to know your height to say for sure. You should stay away from motocross bikes to learn on. What you need is something in the Honda CRF-F lineup. UNless you are really small you don't want a 50, they are for kids 4-6 years old. Probably a CRF80F or CRF100F would work. Just go to your local Honda dealer and sit on the different CRF-F models, they make a 50, 70, 80, 100, 150 and 230. One of them will surely meet your needs.
