amateur question

Hi! Sorry for my amateur question My nephew wants a Yamaha bike for his birthday and I want to surprise him. He's just 12 yo and I wonder which one is recommended for his age. Anyone, please? Thanks.

How tall is he? I am assuming we are talking about a dirt bike?

A yz 85 if 2 stroke or a ttr 125 if 4 stroke

Has he ever rode before?

Ttr125 is a great starter bike. Motors are like a lawn mower can’t brake them.
Yz85 is a little motocross bike when it comes up on the pipe is will hit hard and fly.

I rode a 70 cc motoX bike when I was about 18 and I nearly crapped myself. My legs were shaking when I got off.

TTR110E big enough you could ride it 2200 list (1000.00 less than 125) good bike to learn on. There are two sizes smaller BUT they will get small in six months.

Tough question to answer without knowing the kid. If you have a kid that just "Get's It" and rides a lot and practices then going with an enduro might get tame quick. Just make sure you know the differences in the letters at on the bikes they make a difference. A CRF100F and CRF100R are two different bikes as an example
