why the 150cc limit? is this by law bec of your age?
that's tough. you might be able to find some older model 125cc bikes.
lowest cc streetbikes they sell in the US are usually in the 250cc size.
there're cheap bikes from china being sold in ebay, which is only 100cc but i heard they're not reliable.

in canada (and you should have it there too) we have
The Eliminator 125 which would fit your engine size requirements.
Do yourself a favor though and take a MSF course in your area, your ATV experience will only help with things like shifting and knowing where many of the controls are. out on the street, it's a whole new game.

well here if your 14 it is 150cc or lower but I think when your 16 there is no limit.I look around and see if there is a course here.

Kawasaki Eliminator 125 is sold in the U.S. That'll fit the bill.
