No, get an old Honda tl125/ xl125
Will last a LOT longer and costs a lot less to start off with.

I say get the XRX. it has numerous nicer bits on it than the XR/TL have, USD forks for one. They pretty much all have the rear drum, but the XRX looks the offroad business, unlike the XR which looks like a learner bike. As to whether any of them will be powerful enough for offroading, probably not.
I recommend the MZ 125 SX, I had the SM variant and did various amounts of trail riding with that, never seemed to lack strength in any situation. Plus it's german so hard as nails, won't rust away like a budget bike from any of the other offerings. Plus the French army use them when they need to retreat quickly over tough terrain They are nearly three grand new (discs front & rear, decent suspension, advanced 4 valve dohc motor, KTM cooling system etc.) yet you can pick them up for less than a grand a couple of years old. My 2003 SM was a steal at £600.
