[QUOTE="Bill Turtle, post: 7253516, member: 1414"] My son is 14 now and does enduro racing. He started at around 10/11 on a Suzuki DRZ125. That is a four stroke and around 11hp if I remember correctly. A very flexible engine and easy to start on also reliable and didn’t need any special servicing. He then got a KTM 85 (2stroke) because he couldn’t race the Suzuki at his age. That was probably twice the power. Last year he moved onto a Husqvarna 125. These are about 45 horsepower and both the two strokes are very peaky and will have an inexperienced rider off very easily. They also require oil changes almost every time they are used and frequent engine rebuilds. Hope that is a little help. Feel free to ask more. He knows more about them than me to be honest! [/QUOTE]
