What can I say? We like our bikes and genuinely think others will to, so recommend them to others, especially when the thread calls for it.
I actually didn't recommend mine as the KDx will be easier to modify.
BTW looks like the KDx is still the favored option here so Kawasaki still has the best bike (albeit with extensive mods) over all other brands.

CRFchick might have a point though! The CRF150R might be a sleeper here! Its does have everything required with a question mark over its maintenance regime and perkiness being designed for MX but defiantly worth a try out ride on!! They are about the 5K she says she has and a fly wheel weight is only a hundred or two dollars! I think they come in Big and small wheel models as well! Pity its a four stroke but if my daughter was getting serious about riding the pluses might out-way that!

Nice 08 in Taranaki if you have the extra bucks!!

Anyway as you asked for in the thread spikedpunch you have lots of options to look at now!
Gasgas, KTm, Kdx, Honda all of which you have to modify unfortunately

BTW if you buy the Honda and discover your gay can I come over LOL!! I'm sure Krad won't mind TUI !!! LOL!!!

Edit: opps just noticed this

but I'm not retyping al of the above LOL!! Honda make good bikes though, although I'd do a fairly thourough net search for "CRF150R faults" and learn about them before committing.

I ride a Honda & love it - don't give a shit what anyone else thinks of them. I reckon find the bike you like that suits you - end of the day its your bike not someone elses.
So SP ignore all this bloody fighting & putting down of bikes etc and find what you like.

John & I do not own a KTM but we've had to buy one for Brooklyn because he wants to do motorcross and KTM are they only one who produce a 50cc MX bike. He'll start on this & most likely go to Kawasaki when he gets to the 65cc class. Point being we didn't buy this bike on brand - it was on purpose & what we needed only a KTM mini SX fitted.
Reckless - re that bike with race numbers. Mine has full graphics kit on it & numbers but i don't race. Although must say the numbers on that didn't look like part of a full graphics kit more like cheap numbers for a race or 10.

No im just saying that people seam to get on a bike they like and thats all they are prepared to push on to people (not everyone of course) and this mostly seam to be KTM riders and starting to look like GG riders are heading the same way.

I ride a KTM, I suggested a GG

Hopefully I fall into the "Not everyone"

Gee I duuno. I read a question about what kind of bike I should buy based on abc and xyz

I really dont care who rides what, but I can tell you Noobs 125 has been exceptionally reliable , its very nimble (according to people who have actually ridden it) very light, handles better than other 125s
Not sure why it wouldnt be a contender, can be ridden very slow like a trials bike or fast in the open stuff.
Didnt Noob almost smoke you around Criminal one time Bart ?
Is that why you dont like them ?

It's an interesting idea that crf150 with a heavier flywheel, those bikes can go & no worries about size or dropping the bike height etc. You just have to worry about getting a hard time for riding a Honda, but I'm sure you can get therapy for that

tbh the GG125 is probably my top pick so far. Main reservation is/was expensive parts. Can't figure anything out until I've ridden it anyway

I sat on noob's 200 (and almost fell off, darn slippery seat!) at tussock buster and though it felt pretty good size wise. Would need lowering still of course, but was nice and skinny. He reckoned it was pretty much the same size as the ec125?
I like to take the piss outta honda and ktm, but I'd still buy either if it was the best option

Nothing wrong with being gay as long as both chicks are hot

**Pornstar** · 14th April 2010, 13:31

Seriously though, what about a trials bike? has all your needs covered, only mod needed would be a pillow taped onto the seat area. near impossible to stall, plus once you have the hang of it imagine your joy, a Girl turning up on her trials bike Kickin Ass and Takin Names BOO YAA.
