YZ 150??...Theres no such thing. And if i were you i would get either the crf 150r or crf 250r. I wouldnt recommend buying a 2 stroke, but thats just me. Right now i have a crf 250R and a crf 230F though im selling the 230F, but yea id stick with a 4 stroke. No mixing gas, longer lasting engine, quiter(i ride around the neighbourhood so i gotta keep down the noise) and no smoke or oil stink. I would also go with a Honda but thats just my opinion, Yamaha also makes good bikes, generally yamaha's are 100-300$ cheaper. Hope this helps you.

last link is broke'd...
anyways, i'd say get the one with the most comfortable seat. it's a weird reason but when you think about it, you'll be riding that thing for hours at a time, poppin' wheelies and catchin' air, and i'm sure you want to enjoy it, which is hard if you have pain on your mind. just my 2 cents.

My girlfriends brother has the Honda 125 its a really nice bike and great fun off road.... hardly ever stalls, great ride, easy to work on (so easy in fact that you can leave it in a garage for 6 months with half a tank of gas, come back and in about 4 kicks it will start)!

OH and don't get a two stroke - way to much hassle!

I agree with big. In 2009 most companies are eliminating 2-Strokes for their 4-stroke counterparts. I would recomend a Honda CRF150R since its 4-Stroke. It can compete in the 85 class FYI. Its still a fun and fast bike.

Off-Road is for like trails. Motorcross is for racing. I would recomend for a first bike, and is not bad, a CRF230F

KTM is expenisive. And Offroad is for Trail, and Motocross for Racing. Get a Offroad. I recommend for you a 150F, 230F.
