[QUOTE="BlueR1, post: 682213, member: 47962"] hello everyone... i'm new to this site, and i gotta say i like what i see. alot of helpful posts.. and everyone seems to be friendly for the most part. ok, down to business..... My fiance is wanting to learn how to ride(street), so i thought i'd buy her a dirtbike so she can learn the basics and get comfortable with the clutch, brakes, etc. well, i know i'm getting her the ttr125le, but my question is this: would a yz85 be rediculous for me? i mean, i only need a play bike to tool around on while riding with her... and i kind of want something to play on, and i can get one alittle cheaper than a big bike. i know i'd have to change the gearing alittle for more grunt down low, and i'd change the suspension set-up also(i'm 5'10 and 200). do alot of guys, or any guys buy these bikes to ride? or am i a serious goofball? lol to be honest, i'd like a ttr125 too... but, i like the yz80/85 setup more. by the way... i've been riding since i was 11. experience is not the problem for me. the good thing about this situation is.... once she learns the basics in about a yr or so, she can have the yz85 and i can then get a big bike(wishful thinking with this scenario). thanks in advance for any helpful postings, Rich [/QUOTE]
