[mideastrider]

GNCC posted the classes for 2007. The youth looks like this.
Big Wheel (14-15) 80-105cc 2-Stroke/75-150cc 4-Stroke
Big Wheel (12-13) 80-105cc 2-Stroke/75-150cc 4-Stroke.
85 (14-15) 66-85cc 2-Stroke/75-125cc 4-Stroke
85 (12-13) "
85 (7-11) "
65 (10-11) 52-65cc 2-Stroke/52-90cc 4-Stroke
65 (7-9) “
So how will the 150cc stack up against the 105’s? I know some of you guys have been around them on the mx tracks but what about in the woods how are they doing there?
I have got to buy a bike for next year just trying to get some idea of which way to go

I haven't seen or heard of the 150's against the 105's but I think that's a better comparason than against 85's, time for the 4-strokes to not have an unfair advantage :think: . I'm a 2-stroke guy in woods racing. :whoa:

I ride the 150r in the woods great. I was ridin a KX85 before and I like the 150r way more in the woods than the 85

I would imagine that the 150r like the 250f's do not start to good when hot. Kill a 4-stroke in a tight section and your done, 2-stroke one kick and your going again. Seems to be less and less 4-strokes in the woods, the 450's with button's are too heavy, not sure of KTM's XC-Wf's are going to work or not.

From what I have seen they crank way better than the larger 4strokes when hot. Stall it and it cranks first kick and so far, wreck it and it cranks 1st kick. When cold and first starting it takes 3 to 4 kicks.

Ya, thats what mines like, it will start fist kick after you wreck.

i have a 85 2 smoke and am very glad that im not racing the new 150 even tho its rider skill in the woods its just the idea of 4 strokes taking over my class

Is the power band on your 85sx like the power band on the kx85??
