It sounds like your first bike, Id get a 125 just to rag about abit and get the feel, then move up to a 250 when your ready for something abit heavier and faster!
I live in virginia and i was wondering if a 150cc dirt bike was legal to ride on the street?
It needs to be a 4 stroke, not 4 cylinder. The turn signals need to be a certain distance from the centerline of the bike. You probably can not take it on divided highways, I think it's a 250cc minimum. The lighting kits can be quite expensive if it doesn't already have the necessary lights, especially the tail-light and license bracket. If it came with the correct lighting then it is probably already titled as a street legal bike. You will just need a safety inspection and insurance.
I am 13 years old. Just started riding literally 4 months ago. I currently have a crf230f but i am 6 foot and 170lbs. I want to race and crfs cannot race. I dont know what to get. HELP ME OUT!!
Depends on what your style is me personally would get a 250 sice your pretty big and only thirteen you will grow pretty fast. a 125 was made for a 180 or lighter person so you will weigh more than that in the future probably. Also, with racing a 4 stroke is alot more work in the long run. So if you you have someone to service it or if you know how definetly go for the 4 stroke (crf250) If not cr250 or yz250.

You dont want a mini moto mate, there chinese rubbish and break to much. either get a good brand of pitbike (terra-moto,thumpstar) or if its to rome the streets get a second hand chinese pitbike for around £200 (check your newspaper) my very first mini moto cost £175!!! which when i think now is a total rip off considering i got a genuine thumpstar for £250.
I have a 4×4, but I want to get into some ridiculously remote areas with a dirt bike that can be comfortable on the street. It must be 4-stroke and be good on gas. I want it to be light, so nothing over 650cc and be able to handle a 2-up load and some survival gear as well.
Any suggestions?

Good old XR650 very dependable great all around bike with lots of aftrer market goodies available and priced well.
The KTM 525/530 also a great bike.
The DRZ 400 Suzuki works well if you want a little more nimble bike they also have a 250
I'm the second owner
Then how is it when people say, "I have X amount of miles and X amount of hours on the bike", do they just keep track of the time or something?

There are simple hour meters that can be installed on dirt bikes by merely wrapping a wire around the spark plug wire that tracks the firing of the spark. I install these types of meters on all my bikes before they leave the shop (when purchased new) or installed upon picking up (when I buy used).
these usually record to the tenth hour and are relatively inexpensive.

Heard Ninja 250 I think was a good beginners bike is that true? and what would be a reasonable average price?

I am 13 5 9' and 170 pounds. I already have a Kx100 witch I am looking to sell. But i am looking for a bigger 4 stroke. For trail riding and for racing. Any suggestions on what to get and where to get it for cheap? Thanx
Go bigger then a 125. for being 13 and 5'9 you can pretty much get any bike you want. your gonna grow some more so the height of a bike isn't an issue. because your age i would stay away from a 450 but maybe try like a crf250r. it has tons of power for a 250 and you won't grow out of it.
What are the pro's and cons of each type of dirt bikes? like what are the subtle differences that make people prefer each brand between Honda, KTM, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha? for example i hear with honda you have to replace the valves a lot? just wondering what the differences are…
The valves are only an issue on the crf250r. A lot of the subtle difference are just that. SUBTLE. But MotorcycleUSA has some great reviews on youtube. Also magazines and websites like TransworldMX and Dirt Rider have great reviews. Pick a color. (Stay Japanese)
What dirt bike should i get next i have a honda 100 xr 2001 and its hard to hose what one to get next i need a good but powerfull bike not over 250cc tho
Depends if you want to trail ride get a 230 but if you want to race get a 125 2stroke.
