Hi at the moment i have a 2003 Dr-z 125L and it is slightly uncomfortable to ride, mostly because i am to big for the bike. What bike should i go to next i want to stay suzuki, i was thinking either a Dr-z 250 or a Rm 85L or a Rm 100. I have ridden many 2 strokes and love the feel :ride: but i hear they have alot of matience. so any ideas on which way I should go 2 or 4 stroke.

definitely not an 85 or a 100, you're too big for those. it depends on what kind of riding you want to do, are u going to race, how much do you want to spend? From what you've already told me, i'd say a 125 2 stroke if you're going to be doing motocross tracks and for more wide open land. or you could go with with the drz-250 or a ttr-250 for more woods riding stuff. another possibility is a kdx 200 or 220, which is a two stroke but requires a lot less maintence compared to a 125 2t and is more aggresive than either of the 4 strokes. kdx's are also great for woods riding.
