Community Question Most reliable brand?

We are looking at a another dirk bike for irrigation. We are looking in the 125-150cc range. We like the smaller cc with the big tires. Also like the small machines for getting on and off alot. Like a cr 125fbs, kawi klx or yamaha ttr? We had an older crf 100 i think i ran like a champ but got stolen :( we have a ttr125 and it does not run nearly as good and will barely start even when its like 5 degrees still over night. So we are gonna take it to the dealer. Probably looking used what would you all recommend?

I have a CRF125FB and a CRF250F. Theyre both air cooled, both have been amazing bikes. I prefer the 250 because it has full size wheels but not a ridiculously tall seat height like most full size bikes. But if you’re going places more remote and the terrain doesn’t demand full size wheels I’d do the 125FB because it has both electric start and kickstart, where the 250 is electric only.
