Yamaha YZ250F-
when this bike entered the market in 2001, it was an instant hit for the good reasons. It's the most popular 250cc four-stroke bike, people were very much keen to experience its power and torque compared to the 125 two stroke. The company 'Yamaha' knows how to make four-stroke bikes simple. It has been always known as the most reliable out of its entire class. In the starting people found it little tricky with its manual decompression, but once it was figured out, the bike was a force to be reckoned with. No need of clutching at every corner, bogging out and casing jumps, or having to perfect your shift points. Once people got aware of its functions, everyone wanted one. The thundering sound of a four-stroke was loved by many but also it was hated by many.

Honda CRF450R
Red color was made popular by Honda. This bike is almost near ...
... the top in every performance category but one thing where they lacked was reliability. Though they are rated as full on race bikes, but some of its early model had some problems. Honda has always been known to make dirt bikes that handle well. The ergonomics are really great for most of the riders. Overall this is a very powerful, easy to ride fast and great handling bike for riders of all experiences, which is why the bike is so popular.

Yamaha YZ450F
Yes, again its the Yamaha bike, it is famous not only for its two-strokes good but also for the four-strokes. There was a time when bike was titled “Impossible to ride.” this bike have lot of torque just because it's a 450, its top end power was almost unbelievable. Whatever, the bike is really great, it might be a bit tough on the less experience riders. The bike even got better in 2006 with all-new aluminum frame. This also reduced the weight which ultimately helped in handling. Its suspension is really good in stock form. The power curve changed drastically, changing from a top-end monster to more mellow beast. Some likes this bike a lot and many didn't like it.

Yamaha YZ125
We all know that four-strokes have dominated the market but that doesn't mean people don't buy two strokes anymore. Four-strokes are quite an expensive affair so not every one wants to spend that much of amount. Even 125 two-stroke is a very fast bike especially when properly tuned. The Yamaha YZ125 has reigned as “the bike” to get in the 125cc-class for many years now. It might not be the best market but surely arguably one of the best motorbike in its class because of its versatile nature. Unlike the other bikes it has some bottom-end power. So if you are not afraid to finger the clutch a little, you can turn it into a woods weapon just because it is so light. The center gravity of this bike is so light,

Yamaha YZ250
The lightweight aluminum frame and updated suspension makes the bike nimble, quick and really easier to ride. Power right out the box is excellent for most of the amateur, so there isn't lot you need to do for to be competitive, other than suspension re-valve for your weight and riding style. The best modification for engine is porting. Its relatively cheap, and if you get it done by the right person this bike will absolutely be a rip.

Above mentioned bikes have been the most popular one's in the past decade for various reasons.
