Message: [QUOTE="YZ__rider, post: 1394984, member: 118935"] I never said a 2 stroke is horrible on trails, I said that a 125 MX bike is a poor trail bike. There are a handful of 2 stroke trail bikes that are designed for the trail. An example is the KTM 200 or 300 EXC or the Kawasaki KDX 200/220. I was looking at KTM 300 EXC's when I bought my Yamaha WR. The important thing to note here is that an experienced rider can compensate for just about any bike's shortcomings. I know a guy that rides a KTM 250 SX (Super Cross, similar to motocross) on the trail and he can ride circles around me and my WR. If your friend "rules the trails" on a YZ125, he would be much better on a more trail friendly bike such as a KTM 200EXC. [/QUOTE]
