1) your physical size (both height and weight are important)
2) How physical / aggressive are you ?
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ?????
4) Do you have any riding experience?
5) Do you think you will race ?
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work?
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)?
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry?

I think the 250f or the 125 2t would be good for you but not the 150 it is too small for you and u have ATV experiance so you would get bored of it... well depending if it is a 150f or 150r but either way it is still to small for you

Buy something street legal if you want to ride the roads. Otherwise keep the quad so you don't make us responsible dirt bikers look idiots.

the yamaha and suzuki are both the same thing almost. Only real difference is one is 2 stroke and one is 4. they should both have around the same amount of power but keep in mind you have to mix the gas on the rm

not only is he a quad rider but a canadian figures he rides on the roads.
but yea the 125 2t or 250 4t would be good but the 4t is a lot of maintenance but you would know about that from your quad right?
