TTR125 WONT last long especially for someone who's 5'4. I would suggest an 85 or 150. 150 might be a little more begginer friendly, but after you get used to the powerband on it, it would be good. Maybe even a big wheel.

What is your neigbors bike?

Since you will be racing, and the budget you are working with, the only sensible choice is a 80/85. A bit of a handful at first, but you'll catch on. Maybe get a spare rear fender or two :nener:

Well lets put it this way.


A ttr125 would be sorta close to what your neighbor has.



A CR/KX/RM/YZ 80cc 2-stroke would be a lot lot more of a bike.

ttr125 = dad's minivan.
80cc 2-stroke = Grandpa's new camaro.


But if you are serious about racing, you will need a 80/85 cc 2 -stroke. Just be careful. Try and take one for a test ride, but take it easy.

at 5'4" and 110-lbs sounds like an 85 2-stroke or the CRF150R 4-stroke MX bike (not the CRF150F (big difference between the R and F version). you can start out on a MX bike like the 85 or R, just remember to hold on with your knees and that your arms/hands are not for keeping you on the bike as much as you may think... if this does not make sense - get some riding instructions too...
