Hi I am going to be buying a used dirtbike soon. I am 14 6'3" tall and 200 pounds. I have been riding since I was 8, so i do have some experiance. Last year I sold my XR250 for a quad. I hated that bike even with a pipe and a rejet it was still way underpowered. Last year my dad and I took a trip to the UP in michigan. I made him ride the 250 and i rode his DR350. It had more power but still wasnt enough. In august we sold that bike and I tried a quad, an Arctic Cat 300 4x4. Fun...but really slow. We are going to sell the quad for a bike. My dad wants to keep some of the money from the quad sale so he would like to spend around 1500.00 maybe a little bit more depending on the bike. I dont race or ride MX, most of our riding is wider two-track. We dont do alot of single-track. I was thinking of a 125. My dad prefers four strokes but I like 2 strokes better. What would you reccomend for me? Would a 125 not have enough power for me? My dad thinks a 250 would be way too much bike for me. He wants me to get a 4 stroke, a DR350 like his. I was looking at getting a big bore kit for it like a 435cc, but he is afraid it would not be very reliable. I was also looking at KDX200 and 220's. So would a 125 be right or under-powered. Any help would be appreciated, Kevin
