well how much money do you have to spend and what years are you looking at? ALso if you are riding mostly fields you may want to get a 4 stroke cause they are better in fields than 2 strokes are. If you are in tight trails alot get a 2 stroke. I am 15, 5'9 and 135 pounds. I just got a kawasaki kdx220. This bike is kinda big for me. The thing is the motocross bikes have a very high seat height. So you want to get a 2 stroke trail bike( like what i have ) or a 4 stroke trail bike. I would look at the honda crf150, honda crf 230 or the yamaha tt225. These are all good bikes. Do you want a 2stroke or a 4 stroke more??

at 5'7" you will find any 85cc 2 stroker small.

not if the kid is looking at a 50cc four stroke, buy i guess your kinda right, if your gonna get a 2 stroke get at least a 100cc

ok just to make it clear to you a 2 stroke will always always outpower a 4 troke the same size. a 2 stroke makes twice as much power as the 4 stroke comparable 100 cc 2 stroke equals 200 cc four stroke. get it. if you are new to bikes for you I would say the crf230 great learning bike . soft suspension. a lot of torque to be found in this little 4 stroke. good luck. if you are doing trails I would say 4stroke. unless your big enough to handle the 2 stroke woods bikes. kdx200 kdx220 .good luck

the 80 and 125 4-stroke are the same size. Unless you mean an 80 4-stroke.
