Is the CRF150r too small for me?

I've been riding a pit bike that is a 125 four stroke. It's fun but I would like to move up to a bigger bike that I can race. I'm 5 6'' and 120 pounds. I was looking into a YZ85 and a CRF150r. What bikes would you guys recommend?

Sam the 150r would be a good choice, lots of parts available for that bike . How's your riding coming? Are you having fun? There's nothing better than riding a dirt bike!!

Jump up to the 250f
For his height and weight, and inexperience on bigger bikes this is a bad idea aha.

To the OP, Go for the 150r. Its seat height is 32.7" high and it will let you develop the skills and confidence for the bigger bikes later on.

My friend rides a 2014 crf250. She is 5'3 102 lbs. she actually goes pretty dam good, hurts lots of guys feelings.. Jumps almost everything at local mx tracks.
To op. I say go to a full size bike. Can do way more and you won't regret it.

The CRF150R would be a great bike for you.
Not too big and heavy, and has just the right amount of power.

I had a friend of mine that wore out his CRF150 on the road-courses up at McKinnville on the go-kart track. These bikes would be great to race with no matter if your want to convert to gran prix racing or keep it stock to at your local motocross track.
