lol rebuilting every 15-20 hrs is such a joke. even rebuilting every 50hrs is holy gay

lots of people just rebuilt the bike when they buy it, and ride it till its pouring smoke. then rebuild it. lol which islike 2 years later...

ima put a harey evo motor on a dirt bike, we all know those don't need rebuilt ever

Get a newer yz or rm if you can and a 125 should fit you well. Don't get any newer honda or kawis' they both been out of the game for awhile, your best bet would be a yamaha there very user friendly and seem to be one of the best all around bikes. Also if you can get a bike in the 00' years would also be better, older bikes sux because they are often beat hard and need more replacement parts and such.Do you ride slow trails often? Because 2 strokes have to always be on the pipe or they foul plugs and such so perhaps you might even want a thumper, they seem to last long time for maintence wise and most racers are now moving over to 4strokes (hence the gay AMA regulations Anywho i would suggest a yamaha 4stroke yzf 250f should do the trick.

Also if you compete rebuilding every 20hours is not a joke, you can lose up to 3-5hp in 20hours. Most guys in the A class do it every 10, but like i said everyone goes to 4stroke and i would too. You can go a hole race season without rebuild and they make more power than the avrage 2strokes plus there just as light now. If you count all the pistion rebuilds and such in a 2stroke it would come up to as much as a 4stroke anyways.

Werd. I used to ride from 5pm Friday straight on through till Sunday night. We used to camp out and literally just ride the whole weekend. I would go through 15 gallons of gas per weekend. But than again I had some huge jets in my bike
