Ok, so after a couple years of nagging, one of my friends is starting to seriously look into dirt bikes. Yay! :eek:
He is a small guy. He is 21, but only about 5'5" and 120lbs. He has never ridden before and will be doing trails only, no motocross. I told him that something like an XR200 would be the perfect begenner bike. However, looking in this weeks wheel deals, I found a 2003 TTR 125L with the BBR 150 kit, BBR triple-clamps, Big Gun exhaust, Excel rims and spokes, and re-valved suspension. Would this bike have enough umph for him? Would he be bored of it in 2 months?
Honestly, I dont know much about the TTR other than a lot of people love them. I would *think* that the bike I described above would actually have close if not more power than an XR200. He has looked at my Dad's XR250 and my KDX200, but they are just too tall for him.
Any thoughts on the TTR? :thumb:
Thanks!
