Hey, I am in the market for a dirtbike, and no I will never stop riding quads. I was wondering if anybody know anything abouts db's and how sizes go. I am about 5'9" 160lbs with experience. My friend has a Honda 85R Expert and That was a little to small. My other friend has a 125 Yamaha, which is a little to big. I was thinking like a 100-110 size. Any ideas?

a 110 is gonna be pretty much the same size as a 85 expert. if i were you i would look into lowering a 125 a little bit to fit you. you would outgrow the power of a 100 pretty quick

At 5'9 any fullsize dirtbike should fit you fine. Take a look at a CR-F 230 or any XR200-400. I don't know if you'll be racing, but all trail bikes are slighlty lower than their MX counterparts. The KDX is a great choice as well and is even somewhat competative in the C class MX with only a few mods. A KX-100 is another good choice but they really aren't much bigger than an 85.

you'll like a 250f. I'm selling mine for $2550 which is dirtcheap.
