Default z400 or rm125

Im 15 years old and never rode a dirtbike. I have a honda recon 250. It seems to slow to me. I was thinking of getting a rm125 or z400.which one would be more fun opinions please.

go for the Z. I have both and have more fun with the quad
dirtbikes are great to ride and can go places a quad cant
but if you like to ride in the sand or trails big enough for a
quad to run than I would get the Z. fun to ride and easy
to mod

all i own is a cr125 and i was pending the same situation u were in a year ago and i went with the dirtbike. The dirtbike is faster than the Z but the Z has more top speed. my cousins is stock and tops out at 76. ive rode his Z400 and its nice. Its real comfortable and really smooth. I will more than likely be switching to quads within a year and im probaly gonna go with the Z. Its not the fastest but its one of the most comfortable sport quads out there. Also the Z is alot more easier in trail riding then my bike. When everybody goes and rides at night i just sit at the cabin because i have a bike and cant go on night rides(ive tried riggin a flashlight up and stuff it doesnt work). Overall there both really fun and i will probaly have a quad and a dirtbike so i can do whatever i want and however i feel like [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]. i hope this helps your decision out if you haev any questions ask me

any 125cc 2stroke wont be very good in the woods, all their power is in the uper rpm so u are on the clutch all the time. if yo want a dirtbike get sometype of 250f like the yr250f crf205 or rmz250.. they are much better in the woods then a 2sroke 125.

also if you live anywhere that it snow id say the z for sure, otherwise u wont b riding for a while.

It depends, on what you ride with, what typr of ground you ride on, not ever riding a dirtbike before ur going to take some spills on a rm125. Although I wish I would have never sold my rm250, if I could have one, it would be a quad.

if you decide to get a dirtbike get something with more power like a KX250
the rm125 you'll get tired of it and you'll want more power
and since you have never rode a dirtbike I would get a quad
lot easier to control and there great for night riding
