I am 5'9 and 130lbs, so what 2-stroke bike is best for me? Yes I decide on a 2-stroke(Elko). ![]()

any 125 2 smoke. But considering your username, you should probably get a yz125. Not to mention that they're also one of the better 125 out there

Yes elko is right if we are thinking the same thing, if your experienced enough then your could easily handle a 250 and it would be a good buy but if were not thinking the same thing, then this is just my opinion.

yes I was looking at 250s, but I just thought that I would get your opinions. I have had a 92 yz125 but mabey the new ones have more power. and also found 250s a couple years cheaper than 125s.

well i think the decision is now on you. your a small guy for a 250 and i would normally suggest a 125 but if you feel you can handle a 250 then their is no one holding you back. but people dont outgrow 125's they just suck and think they need a bigger bike to go fast when they really need practice.

I get to top speed to fast. Just want more power. But just for your information I don't do a lot of MX riding mostly for open trail, just recently been wanting to ride the MX track about 30min away.
