Starting up motocross next year, im going to be 15 years old! So ill be old enough to enter a 250cc class

I've never rode motocross, but I've got quite a good feel for bikes as ive riden for 9 years through woods, fields and trials, I currentley have a dt 125, as people have told me i should get a 250cc to start on with motocross because ive already got a 125 (I know there's a big difference between a dt and a yz)

Im fairly tall like 5 foot 10, im 11 stone, so would a 250 be a good bike to start on? Or a 125? Im sensible on bikes im not crazy! Your opinion on what cc I've i should get?

I did have a pw50! It was good until we got rid of it!:( first bike i learnt on!

LOL billy don't let people tell you waht you shoud be riding,find someone who will let you ride the 250 and if you think it ok then by one,but realy the yz125 ridden well can cut lap times just as fast,lighter and more flickable just alot more danceing on the shifter to keep it in the power band.

Also I always say if ya cant pick the bike up then it's to big for you at 15 you might have a bit of problems picking up the 250,my son(13) can ride the wr but not a chance in hell is he ever going to pick it up.

Erm, I can pick up my dt with out a problem if that's close enough? Lol

go for a 250cc for motocross ,

a 125 won't quite have that poke you need.

well if ya can pick up the dt then a 250 shouldn't be much heavier,no battery lights ect, so now the only ?? is are you ready for the power?
