This dudes motorcycling experience sounds like he bought a cbr1000, rode it on the street for a couple months, scared the shit out of himself, almost killed himself a dozen times, decided thats too dangerous so he took up moto. Now hes disappointed because he has 12 hours of total moto experience and hes pissed because the bike is holding him back. But thats just my take from 1500 miles away.

When people with no skill start getting faster, they get confident. Then they go fast too early in their riding careers, and then they get hurt. That scenario is a lot harder to come by on a 2-stroke (still very possible, of course).
So, once again I have a brand new low-hour two stroke with a bunch of mods ready to list on CL....
wonder why you noticed a difference.
not that a modded 125 would be on par with a 250f, but thats why pros dont race them.
but there are other virtues of a 125. cheaper to rebuild lighter, being able to ride w/open (feel anyways)
honestly a 250 2 stroke is the way to go
1.) Cost is no object to you
2.) You seem to appreciate big power.
3.) You will be able to clear the big gaps without actually learning how to ride, just coast around those corners and twist the throttle when you are damn well ready. You don't even need to use the brakes on the big thumpers, compression braking will be enough to slow your ass down.
I see a lot of vet riders using this technique to successfully navigate modern mx tracks, best bang for your buck if time is money and you aren't very good at carrying speed.
Seriously though. You only have 12 hours of ride time. Keep riding and learning. 12 hours of riding is not nearly enough time to know how to ride that bike, or any bike for that matter. Give it time. This sport doesn't come to anyone overnight. Keep riding and it will get way better.

That 125, not matter what year, or model, is fully capable of hang with 450s with a skilled rider.
I'm Vet age, and I ride a 125. They're a blast. Great exercise, fun to ride, and THE SOUND. It's like listening to a full auto AK-47. Pure bliss.
