1) your physical size (both height and weight are important) about 5"3 and 135-140lbs
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? 6/10
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ????? MX, woods rarely
4) Do you have any riding experience? yes pw for 3 years and drz125L for 1 year
5) Do you think you will race ? No
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? My brother is somewhat
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? umm either
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? Yes kawasaki, yamaha, suzuki, honda
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike? not worried
10) Do you live in California? No
11) Your age? 13
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion- My dad thinks i should get a 250 four stroke or a 125 2 stroke but those are way out of my league arent they?? anyways we are deciding form a kx100, 125, 250, crf150r or any other bikes that you guys think would be good. I know i have posted before but only about the kx and crf. I want a bike with speed, acceleration, and suspension and of course reliable. :laugh:

go with what your dad says. my neighbor is only 12 and somewhere around your size and he rides a crf450f, and he's about to get another one! also i just got my bike (yz250) and i have never ridden before, so your are probably a better rider than me. anyway if you want a 250 or whatever, go for it. all you have to do is get used to it........ like me!

if you're talking about the 450, i dont know. if your talking about the 250, i still dont know. i dont even think he lowered his at all. i didn't even know you could lower the seat height.

Kx 100. The 150 is a new bike and is probably good but 4 grand for a kids bike is pushing it. DO NOT GET A 125! they are full sized bikes and the power sucks. any 250 would be good, 4 or 2. Another thing. How fast do you grow. if your 13 at 5'3'', what are you going to be when your 15. If you grow fast get the 250. In fact just forget what I said about the KX 100. Just a 250 any brand any motor. My little brother who was 11 at the time and 4' 10" rode around my dad's CRF 250 just fine. He even started himself.

dude get the kx100 you'll be fine till your 15 on it..I'm 5'7'' 160 and that thing hauls ass..yeah I have V-Force reeds but thats it no performance exhaust no silencer....and it keeps up with all my friends bigger bikes...even up hills...125 is next for me..though..5'3'' is way too short and dangerous when you need to creep over logs and stuff or get the front tire in a rutt....
