[QUOTE="gulliver, post: 137641, member: 23043"] Eel: I recently bought my first bike, a KTM 640 LC4. It's about the same size as the YZ, but much heavier. I found that the power was pretty easy to get used to, just watch that you don't rev too high when the clutch is in until you can control the power. As far as tight woods, the size of the bike makes it difficult. Practice sliding your but off the seat so that you can put a quick and solid foot down if you have to. It seems like the suspension sunk a little as I broke it in, which allows me to at least touch my heels down. Currently, I'm staying away from tight situations until I'm a better rider. If you pick your trails carefully, You should have no problems starting out. When racing, I guess you don't have a choice. I'd have to say, if I had to sell it to get an off road only bike, I would get something small and nimble. The size of the bike is great on the road, but off road I feel I'm limited by the lack of ability to man-handle the bike. A small light bike may be more fun for you if you like catching air and hitting the woods. Just my .02 [/QUOTE]
