My first ride on the TTR125L and only the second day on a dirt bike. I spent the first time taking turns with my son on his XR80. ;) We had an absolute blast and rode all day from about 9am - 5:30pm. The only complaint I have is the plastic side panel melted on the new BBR pipe... OUCH... melted plastic dripped on to my pant leg. I also have very little preload on the BBR shock spring (about one inch of threads exposed) trying to keep the height low, but it bottoms out still, as I'm about 165 lbs.
I think I need the smaller counter gear or larger sprocket. A little more speed would be nice but I dont want to loose the bottom end. This will also make 1st gear a little more useful.
I bogged out on a steep hill climb trying to make it up in 3rd, but I shouldnt have been up there in the first place... FUN going up but scary and loose coming down.
Will the sprocket change and BBR 150 kit w/cam make a big difference? Would you suggest the counter gear or rear sprocket? and what size?
All in all a GREAT day... but we need to find a place we can both ride together. I'm not allowed on the kids track.. 90cc and under only, and its too crazy on the MX track for him. Scary for me too but I had to try a few laps.
I cant think of a better way to spend an afternoon with your kids... fun, exciting, fun, exercise, and FUN.
Hope to see some of you all out there one of these days,
