don't go with the wussy bikes get a compitition bike
a yz85 would easily beat a ttr125.
your about the same height as me i would the 80s are starting to get a little small
why not get like a 100 i believe they have a rm and kx 100.
125s are pretty big and you need to know what your doing with those.
i wouldn't mind a yz85 to play around with though. dirt bikes are actually pretty fast.
but if your going with the ttr line and that type you might want something a little big then the 125...
just my 2 cents peace

 

Well, I have found this... I can fit on a YZ85, CR85, and KFX125. What would you guys get, and will I get bored of the 80's and want more speed, or do they have plenty to pull me around with. Also, is there a big-bore kit or a stroker kit for a 2-stroke like the YZ85, CR85, and the KFX125? What is the greatest performance mod you can get for an 80 to give it more power so I can ride the dunes and have a lot of torque? Does the YZ85 and the CR85 have enough power for the dunes, and enough low-end torque for climbing hills and stuff like that? Thanks guys, Ryan

 

Yz and Cr and Kfx(if you mean teh 2 stroke kx) are quick as hell. They have a real snappy power band. If you want horse power i would go with a kx100 or rm100.

 

Ya, I meant the KX. Do the 80's have enough horsepower for the dunes? How about the KX125? Thanks, Ryan

 

not sure if 80s ahve enoguh power for dunes i would think so.. means the 250ex does! but go with a Cr or Rm 125 you will be happy in the long run

 

I can't fit on the CR125 or the RM125.

 

I think ill get either the CR85 Expert or the YZ85, and when I get bored with it, I can get a power package from Tom Morgan Racing. What do you guys think? I just finished watching Ricky whoop everyone else, so now im ready for a motocross bike. Any experience with either bike? Also, is there any advantage to having bigger tires on a dirt bike? Thanks guys, Ryan
