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

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…
Dirt bikes


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)
I know that there is Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha. Am I missing any? I'm mainly looking for ones you would see in a motocross race. And any kind of business logos, like Thor and Fox.

KTM is known around here as Kan't Take Much

Apparently this is possible, (i asked my bf for you!) and can be done for about £200. You need, indicators, headlights, rear lights, on-road tyres, a speedometer and a number plate bracket. Then you have to register it for a first MOT at a special MOT centre (we only no of Ruislip, but dont no where you are lol) and get it to pass!
Hope this helps :)
I'm looking into buying a new 450 and I wanted some opinions on which would be the best in general, or for me specifically.
I ride a lot at the track, but a lot of my riding is also done in the mountains, in the woods, and on trails. Right now im leaning more towards the Honda, but its up in the air.

Thanks.

I like, in order:

KTM has the best suspension, lightest weight, most options and the most power. It is the most expensive and parts can be hard to get. The suspension is great but fussy to adjust.

The Yamaha is great for both racing and trail riding. YZF is better for racing and the WR for trails.

The Suzuki and Kawasaki are about the same and are good for both and they have very tough motors.

The Honda has great suspension and is easy to ride fast but the motors wont last the longest.

BTW, Cycle News sucks and I wouldn't put much trust in what they say. They mostly do street bikes anyway.

I’m going to be getting a dirt bike sometime in the next month or so, and was wondering what you think would be good for me to get? im 5′ 6″ , 110lbs. i have rode a dirt bike before my friends XR70 and DRZ110,(kinda small) my friend taught me to ride , i did do a little jumping but nothin extreme.

A 110 is kind of small I agree you’ll want something that you can learn with and also grow wih being you’re already 12 years old I recomend a yamaha ttr 125, or a honda crf150. Both these are great beginner bikes and good for jumping or just riding around. My 13 year old nephew has a ttr 125 and loves it, he’s smaller in size and can handle it very well. Yamaha makes great everything, I love all their 4 stroke stuff and i’m mostly a suzuki fan, I would say yamaha is the leader in 4 strokes and makes the best around. The honda crf150 is a great bike also, a little more power than the ttr125 but not any heavier and will grow with you forever, i’m an adult rider and would be comfortable on a crf150 for just riding around. Take a look at these two bikes and ask dealers some questions even if you don’t buy from them it’s good to ask the pro’s they’ll be able to answer anything else that we can’t on here.
Ok ive been riding since i was 6 yrs old (im 15 now)and looking 4 another bike. i had in mind a yamaha yz125 or a suzuki rm125 4 trail riding i have a kx125 now for racing. what should i get?
Dirt bikes


A yz250f, you can still ride it in the 125 class and it's a lot better. Well at least in Utah you can ride it in the 125 class still. My experience with 125 is bad, they blow up a lot.
I am looking for a 125cc to 150cc mini dirt bike for my child.
i want it to be nice but not to expensive because he will soon grow out of it.
thank you!
Dirt bikes


A 125 to 150 is not really for a child. It will be tough to get something for 500.00 that is a major brand. Remember a Honda, Yamaha Kawaski, Suzuki will hold some value especially the entry level bikes. It is hard to tell you what to look for since you did not mention his size, age, and skill level.
I weigh 150 pounds and am looking for a dirt bike that i can use, but still is a little big incase i grow more.

Are any of these bikes good: Suzuki DR-Z250, Honda CRF-230F, Yamaha TTR-230, or Kawasaki KLX 300R.
Any help is welcome.
Thank you for reading

I would recommend the CRF250X. It is a bit larger than the 230, much more powerful, and it is a bike that a beginner can ride comfortably and grow into. A WR250F is also a good choice, as is a KTM 250-F-XCW or KTM 400XCW. The Kawasaki KLX300R is also a good choice. You might be happy with the TTR230 or CRF230 for a short time, but I think your skills will grow out of them too fast. Another good choice is the Honda XR400. They don't make them any more, but they are extremely reliable and a used one will not drop much in value over the next few years.
Im 5'3 5'4 150 lbs and im looking for a dirt bike….2 stroke or 4 stroke? and i want a fast bike that will last me and wont break down every 5 minutes…. WHATS THE BEST DIRT BIKE FOR ME!?!?!?!?!?!??!!??!
Dirt bikes


For reliability get a four stroke. The brand doesn't make much difference. All of the major motorcycle companies make excellent bikes. I would consider what dealers are near you and which of them has a good reputation in their service department.
