What is a good 125cc, 6 speed dirt bike? And what is better in your opinion: 2 or 4 stroke? I have been told that 2 strokes are better but i personally like 4 strokes. I also was thinking a Honda or a Yamaha cause i know people that own these 2 brands and they are really good.
 
Very few 125's are 6 speed. I would go with a YZ125, its two stroke and will beat the YZF125. Small displacement engines like 125's and 250's are great in 2 stroke. But bigger displacement bike like 450's are best in 4 strokI would get a Yamaha over a Honda any day. Yamaha's are more reliable, their 2 strokes are faster and Honda's engine only last a few years before they start to turn to shit.

I bought an 06 Honda CRF450R in 08 for my 16th birthday and the linkage bearings broke and the swing arm privet rusted and I constantly found metal shavings in the gearbox, it also happened to my friends CRF250R. I bought an 06 WR450 about six months ago and have had no problems at all, they are better to ride to.

Another option is a KTM, they are fast and reliable as well.
 
yamaha yz125 are really good 125cc bikes.. i like 2 stroke alot better than 4 stroke but its all up to you.. the yz are usually 2 strokes though
