Hey, all. My name is Matt. I am thirteen years old. I like to skate and wakeboard, shoot stuff, and play my Xbox 360.
I am really new to all this, like REALLY new. I am looking to purchase my first bike before February, I have a budget of almost 800$. But for now I will have to live with borrowing my friend's.
I'm not particularly sure, I was thinking something from 100cc-125cc. I am 5' and 106lbs. Is there anything that you would recommend for someone my size? The only other thing that I require of a bike is that I could still use it in a few years when I am a lot bigger.
you would probably like a Yamaha TTR 125 or a suzuki DRZ 125 but it you are an agressive rider then a YZ 80 KX 80 cr 80 OR rm 80 would be best.
since your new to dirt bikes I will try to explain the ones I have listed to you.
the 125CC bikes are 4strokes and they are reliable and easy to ride but they are not built for raceing or serious jumping
the 80CC bikes are 2strokes evan through their motors are smaller the produce a lot more power then the 125s,they also have better suspention but they take longer to learn how to ride.
As far as outgrowing them, well I think it is best to get one that fits and when you out grow it you can sell it and buy a bigger one.
My first bike was a realy old and heavy 125 2stroke, and because it was so big I could not lift it up if I crashed. so I was scared to ride it
