Message: [QUOTE="MXGirl230, post: 1106146, member: 37787"] You'll be fine on the 125. I'm 3" shorter than you and about 10lbs lighter and I don't really struggle that much. I have my seat shaved and I put softer springs in and set the sag. I can touch on one side or the other or on my toes. That's good enough for me. There are times when I do have to make sure the ground is level, but I would give anything to have the extra 3". Remember if you are looking at new bikes at a dealer 1) They aren't broken in at all, the springs do settle some after riding 2) New bikes are pretty much set up for someone around 5'9" and 175lbs (or somewhere around there) 3) Stock springs are way too stiff for us lightweights/shortys [/QUOTE]
