| currently have a 2007 rmz 250, want a bigger bike because im 6 ft and 200 pounds. I am 16 and have been riding dirt bikes for about a year, quads and UTVs forever.
I have a good dealer within a few miles of my house that sells all Suzuki and KTM bikes. There is also a dealer for Yamaha-Kawasaki and a Honda dealer not to far away but i dont like them nearly as much. One of the mechanics is helping me train at the Suzuki dealer and their bikes are nice.
I am thinking about buying either a rmz 450 or ktm 250sx (2 stroke) i like both bikes and have ridden a few 2 strokes before. just looking for opinions and comments :) _________________ I will be a rider till death, lifes to short to stop riding or smell flowers.

| I'd go with the 2 stroke also but I too am biased to them. My CR has been a great all around bike, track and trails. _________________ 2000 Honda CR250
