'03 Yz125?

[Patman]

Got a possible trade for a pretty clean mostly stocker. Still waiting on service history (yeah right) info. Any useful commentary?

the luddites seem to love them . . . ;)

What are you trading for it? Far as I know, they're pretty dang bulletproof.

Nothing but favorable comments on the 99-up YZ's of either luddite size from everything I've ever heard.

Not a fan of the YZ's personally, always find they looked clapped out unless Lou owns em. Performance wise they've been good from what I know. I'd prefer an 05 or up with aluminum frame if it was me. Eric does have an 05 YZ155 he's trying to move :p

Looking to flip the blingorific CR85R http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa62/Patman-TX/?action=view&current=DSCF0237.jpg

Seems the kid convinced his parents he needed the YZ125 but quickly found out it was both too big and too fast for him. The 85 just doesn't fit Brandon (he' up to about 5'-8") so I'm thinking it might be a bad choice. I'd prefer a CR but that's me, he's open to most anything.

The bike does look worn but nothing a good tear down and some elbow grease, new plastic, graphics, tires and grips couldn't fix.

The 05 and up al frames do look sweet. I think Nik rode MXgirl's 125 at Motoland last year and liked it quite a bit. And hated my 250, too.

Chili an aluminum 155 would be freakin' AWESOME! But alas it is also a bit out of the current financial allocation the minister of finance will allow.
