Which would be a better bike for me?


i am 13 years old and am about 5"1.i currently own a 2005 yamaha blaster with light mods but i want a dirtbike. first i want to know if you think rm85s, kx85s, cr85s, yz85s, and sx85s are faster than my blaster. then i would like to know which suties me best. i weigh about 110 lbs. i dont plan on racing with this bike but i plan on doing some serious riding. i dont mess around when i ride i go all out. so, i need a pretty small bike because of my height with some serious balls! please help me out

Actually, the TTR 110 would be extremely boring after your blaster.

These bikes are the perfect size for you right now, but in a year or two, you will probably out grow them and need a 125.

For the most part, choosing between the 85 models will basically be picking your favorite color. They are very similar bikes. I would suggest going with the "expert" or "bigwheel" models, as the frame is just a little bigger, but still low enough for your height.

Honda has a reputation for reliability, and I have personal experience with them, and they really pull fast!

KTM is slightly more expensive, but they are also very fast. Try sitting on a 105 model if you get the chance, they are extremely fast!

I haven't seen the Kawasaki models do quite as well against Hondas and KTMs but the KX100 might be another option for you, as it has a larger engine, with the smaller sized frame.

I don't know much about the Suzuki bikes. They are not very popular around my racing area. I would rank them mid-pack. The same goes for the Yamahas. They aren't quite as popular in the 85 class, but are not too bad as far as bikes go!

I'd suggest trying as many different models as you can for now, and pick whatever is most availible to you. This is especially helpful to have parts easily accessible to you when it comes time to do engine rebuilds.

TT-R110 would be a good one. It is a yamaha. Check on the link.

A 110 will be too small for you, if not right now it will be very soon. My daughters are your age and height and they have Yamaha 125s.
