Which bike is better?

[cowasaki]

im 14 years old 5,5 and growing about 130lbs i ride a kx 100 and want to upgrade to something bigger that will last longer. i only been on a bike for 1/2 a year so i have experience but still learning to get better. the kx 100 will last me a year if i race supermini so i need to get something else. i was thinking about a 2stroke 125 (sx125 cr125 yz125 etc) but i like the bottom end power of 4 strokes so i was considering a 250 4 stroke (race bike) yz250f crf250r rmz250 etc... so what do you think i should get? when i get better at riding i was thinking i might race some hare scrambles.

If your budget is big and your parents are on board, I think I would go for the 250, if you are buying new. New bike and twenty races including gear and a riding school should be 11k or so

Always go 2 stroke…..stay away from the dark side

I thought I read that he was going to race it though .

And your point is?

I guess it depends in the classes he may run into. ( If you have to race against a 250f it is better to be on one. )

I've ridden the 250 and 450 four strokes they're effective but no fun. I'll stick with the fun bikes that's my opinion

And I just answered the questions he asked the best way I could, based on his information. Ossa doesnt do blanket statements
