What is the oil to gas mixture for 2005 Yz 85?
This would depend on what type of oil you will be using for your premix. The oil base stock is either petroleum, semi-synthetic or synthetic oil and is mixed with gas at a ratio ranging from 16:1 (petroleum) to as high as 100:1 (synthetic). My 2 stroke I have is a 2001 Kawasaki KDX200 that I run Yamalube 2R at 36:1 with no problems. Although synthetics say you can mix them at 100:1 I would not, that seems way too lean to me.
It depends on what you mean by "titles". If you mean titles as in which different name, brand, or size a dirt bike comes in then yes they do. For Example, I have a RMZ250F 2008. The RMZ means that it is a suzuki. The 250 is the cc of the engine. And the F at the end means that it is a four stroke. Hope this helps :)

If you mean "title" as in Motor Vehicle Department paper, only if the bike is licensed for use on a roadway. This may vary from state to state.

Scramble has to do with the type of start for the race. All competitors are placed in a line even with each other and when the gate drops they all " scramble " for position as opposed to a timed start as in a ralley.

It is a Yamaha and Kawasaki, you can't get a better dirt bike than a Yamaha and Kawasaki!!!!!
That is kind of a tricky question. Dirt bikes encompass any bike that is ridden off road plus what are known as dual sport bikes. Most of the manufacturers categorize their dirt bikes as motocross or off road. Basically "dirt bikes" break down like this; 1) Motocross race bikes and woods race bikes. These are both liquid-cooled bikes with aluminum frames and racing suspension (compression and rebound settings, long travel, etc.), the woods race bikes just have some minor changes such as a wider gear ratio, a heavier fly wheel, bigger tank, lights, softer spring rate, etc. 2) Trail/play bikes. These bikes have air-cooled engines, steel frames and much less suspension than the race bikes. 3) Dual Sport bikes. This category is everything from Woods race bikes with a dual sport kit installed to make them street legal to production dual sport bikes such as the Honda XR650L and BMW 650GS.
Stick with the klx. It has the most after market parts available and if you break something Kawasaki has parts to fix it. Same with Yamaha and Suzuki but the Kawi is your best bet. Stay away from the off brand crap, they are throw away bikes. No parts to fix them and they will fall apart.
