So I have a 2016 YZ125 that I love and jive with really well. Dealer offered me a good deal on a 2016 SX 150 which looks amazing when compared to my YZ they are way sharper than the long toothed yami. I've always been a Yamaha guy and a bit apprehensive about jumping to a KTM. I've heard mixed reviews on the new WP suspension which makes me hesitate. Should I just keep my YZ for now or make the jump to the orange brigade?
I love my 150, but not everyone does/will.

If not, how much do you weigh? Can you wring the piss out of a 125?
That's not to say the new 150 sx isn't a great bike. Although be prepared to dish out some dough if you want to bring the 150 sx suspension up to par with the yz 125. And by par I mean almost as good as stock yz suspension.... lol

PS I have no affiliation with JMS but if I ride Yamaha he will be the only guy that will touch my bike
Good luck.
