What size dirtbike do i need?

Question

I'm 6 foot 4 inches and weight around 155, what size dirtbike do i need? Also I am only 14, so I might need something to grow into.

Answer 1

as far as racing bikes once you go 125 and up they are all teh same size, just different size engines, so the bigger the engine the heavier the bike. go for a 250 if you can lift it if its on its side

Answer 2

Even though you are only 14 at 6ft 4 you would feel like you were riding a kids pedal bike if you get anything smaller than a 4 stroke 250cc.  You shouldn't go any bigger till you have experience on the bike as at 14 you are still growing and would not be as strong as many people who are your height.  

The 4 stroke 250cc would be plenty enough for you to handle.  Any of the known 250f's would be fine. There isn't a massive difference in size to the 2 stroke 125cc but if you want the 125cc for trail riding they are not as good for that and as far as racing goes they are slowly disappearing from the grids as they generally have to race against the 250f's and in most cases the 250f's come out on top.  Of course that depends upon rider ability but it is usually the case. And as No Religion says you could also look at the 230f if trail riding as that would suit you.

Answer 3

if you are going racing i would say a 125 two-stroke or a 250 four-stroke but if you are riding around the farm and go on trail rides go with the crf250x or wr250 these two bikes are made for trail riding and endro.

Answer 4

A 125, 250 and 450 are all the same physical size, the seat heights are right there on the website. Your height has absolutely nothing to do with which of the 3 bikes you ride. All that matters is your weight and experience level. That being said, forget the 125 and get a 250F. No one races a 125 anymore and if you just plan to ride for fun the 4 stroke is infinitely better than a 125 2 stroke for that application.

Answer 5

you should a big wheel honda cr 90 and get it race tuned

Answer 6

well from what you told ,i'd go with a 250cc ,you will grow into that and it will have plenty of power and be sure to get  a good model ,some bikes are cheap made and dont have as good performance as others do ,,so good luck

Answer 7

I would say 150cc-250cc go to ur nearest bike store and ask staff to check what size u need. Good luck

Answer 8

a 250cc fourstroke for sure.

Answer 9

some body just doesnt like Auburn.....

you would be happy on a 250 4stroke....if you do not plan to race the CRF230 is a great woods bike to learn to ride on then you might want to step up to a full on race bike...

Answer 10

just get a 450f and be done with it! nearly everyone who rides less is a wanker. it may not be better but its FUNNER!

Answer 11

a 125 would be too small for ur height. go for a 250, ull never grow out of it and they go anywhere.
