Gotcha, good question, Zoltán. For example: Yamaha TTR = trail bike, YZ = race bike Honda XR or CRF-F = trail bike, CRF-R = race bike Kawasaki KLX = trail bike, KX = race bike Does that make sense?
@@MotocrossHideout well, it doesn't make much sense (as for general logic😉), but the list is definitely helpful. 😊 It would be very useful to have a table of the model codes by sections of usage category for the models of the last 30 years (at least for the big names).

Xr100r was my first bike and it was amazing. Very reliable and perfect for me while I was learning. Decided to sell when I was running it a little harder. Looking for my next bike. Thinking of an enduro, but I’m not sure what is a good bike to upgrade to as a beginner-intermediate level rider. I like to go fast an hit some jumps, but I also like trails and jumping logs. It is a tough decision to make!
I've read some articles on your blog and was happy to find you on youtube, but this video was misnamed. Younger, beginner riders would like these bikes. For beginner adults I would only recommend either the TTR or the XR 250. The XR 250 was reliable back in the day, but it was slow and heavy. Beginner adults will quickly outgrow these bikes.
Thanks for reading and watching my content - I really appreciate it! I still believe the video is titled correctly. They're mostly beginner-friendly bikes because that's generally what would be best if you want a cheap & reliable dirt bike. I'd rather have you stay safe and quickly outgrow a bike than start on something too big/fast and get hurt right away. What do you think? :)
@@MotocrossHideout I think the KDX 200 deserves a mention. It's good for trails and good for competition and is lighter with plenty of usable power. You can easily pick one up for $3k or less although I have seen them listed around $5k. The only turnoff for some might be that it's a 2-stroke, but I daresay that an adult beginner would grow out of an XR 250 long before he grew out of a KDX 200.
If you need a street legal dirt bike, something like the CRF300L or the KLX300 street version would be a good to start on. They won't handle as well on tight and slow trails as a lighter trail bike, just FYI.
So I am first time rider with big dreams to travel around the world (on road and off) on a light weight reliable bike that is well suited for my short height of 5'6" and easy to make minor repairs on the road. Looking forward to your advice. Thanks in advance.
Hey Sanjay, thanks for watching - that's an amazing dream you have there! You should check out this video and let me know what you think: ruclips.net/video/CBrEJc9qKuI/видео.html
Depends on your size and what you're using it for, but yes, it's a solid starter bike. Not as popular as a similar Honda or Yamaha, but it's easy to ride and reliable.
The 1986-1988 ones are about 25 lbs lighter and i think even though its rated the same, is tuned a little richer and with a less restrictive exhaust, so even if peak hp is the same, the performance is better than the street legal varieties
Going to be hard to find a street legal dirt bike in good shape for under $2k, but here's my video on all of the best models: ruclips.net/video/5yMjTjdakpU/видео.html
Hi i want to get into suoercross but i dont want to soend so much money on a bike any suggestions for a cheap and reliable bike? With low maintenance cost. Thank you
Compared to a motocross bike, yes, it's noticeably softer, but there are different models of enduro bikes with different specs. However, I wouldn't consider an enduro bike to be "half trials". Trails bikes are quite a bit different in how they ride and what they're meant for.
@@MotocrossHideout The new enduros are the hybrids Wide ratio transmissions and much softer suspension The worlds top hard enduro guys are trials riders
Wide ratio and softer suspension compared to an MX bike? Yes. Yes, trials riders are often good "enduro" riders, but not everybody wants to learn "trials techniques". Thanks for watching, Ben.
Yep, that's a great bike! They're reliable, which means they can be abused, so I'd recommend watching this vid on what to look for when buying one used so you don't get one that potentially needs a lot of work: ruclips.net/video/RpXW6SntidA/видео.html

I like seeing small channels doing reviews because you know they're not getting paid
Thanks for your support, Joshua!
Thats why I support small channels, and so should you!
That’s how RUclips used to be
1:38 Honda XR100 or CRF100
2:20 Honda XR200
3:23 Yamaha TTR230
4:06 Honda XR250
4:56 Kawasaki KX100
5:36 Yamaha YZ125
Thanks. The list works, but it won't explain why you may or may not want a specific model.

Hey Hope, thanks for sharing! How big are the jumps you're doing? What's your height? What about your budget?

Hey i’m 6’2 but i dont know wich dirtbikes are good for my lenght. I would like to drive a little offroad and a bit more on the street.

Honda xr650L

curious about your thoughts on getting an older Suzuki DR200 as a first bike
Depends on your size and what you're using it for, but yes, it's a solid starter bike. Not as popular as a similar Honda or Yamaha, but it's easy to ride and reliable.
The 1986-1988 ones are about 25 lbs lighter and i think even though its rated the same, is tuned a little richer and with a less restrictive exhaust, so even if peak hp is the same, the performance is better than the street legal varieties
I need one between 1500 and $2000 dirt bike for street, which one could i get

@MotocrossHideout alr thank you sm
I think he likes Honda
How can you tell? :p

Any of the bikes in this video are cheap and reliable.
Enduro is half trials half cross country
It’s a trail bike with softer suspension and a wide ratio transmission
Compared to a motocross bike, yes, it's noticeably softer, but there are different models of enduro bikes with different specs.

How about a 2006 TTR-250 for trail riding, new rider who is 6'1" > 200 lbs.

All you had to say was Honda.
Well, yes, but it's not the only cheap and reliable dirt bike brand. Thanks for watching, Joe!
I cant understand video.Can you write in coment models of bikes about you talk.
