I'm 15 years old and I have been riding dirtbikes for a good 10 years. I haven't been able to do serious writing for quiet some time now due to my osgoodhslaters (disease where my knees are fvcked up).

My dad sold basicaly all the bikes though there still is the XT 225 duel sport. I wanna get something more suitable for me needs. I'm thinking of a 2 stroke. Can you guys give me some ideas on what is out there? I just dont know what bike to look into.

thanks

There are a bunch of 2 strokes on the market both new and used. IMO -
the two best 2005 model 2 strokes are the Yamaha YZ250 and Honda CR250R. After that the Suzuki RM250 and Kawasaki KX250.

They make for great enduro, desert and trail bikes not just motocross due to the suspension system and may be more foregiving on your knee problems.

glock, consider the type of riding you want to do, (trail, track, enduro) and your weight and build. i'm partial to 2strokes cause they're more fun, but the new four strokes are light and powerful. if you're a lightweight(130 or less), i would get a 125. if heavier you may decide on a 250. they're both the same size but the 250 has more balls.
