Rather dated now

Ive seen a couple of KDX125's zinging around.

A brand new WR125 would be my next bike for shore.

they made yz125wr's and cre125's, they were just never bought into nz

What about a gas gas pampera? nice and low and easy to manage power http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-282505085.htm

And I'm pretty sure SPike and Krad would have to pay a shop to work on a 4 stroke if they had one. I know that probably sounds very contadictory from me as I put forward the CRF150r as an option but at least she has them all to consider LOL!!!

Ah well I think that probably about covers all the options for her and your 100% correct she'll just have to go ride ride ride now!!!

Adams YZF is becuase he is didn't bother with any maintenance! Aye Adam!! LOL And Tellimans was an old second hand bike that who knew the history.

I seriously think that you should have a go on a 250 4 smoker. And I'm pro 2 strokes!!

**SpikedPunch** · 15th April 2010, 20:55

Not that I can afford one, but those new 250 efi zooks look slick as...

I wont rule em out completely

**SpikedPunch** · 15th April 2010, 22:02

I'm keen to try one of those when its my turn to upgrade. The weight of them compared to me scares me a little though

**SpikedPunch** · 15th April 2010, 22:08

Only 5kg heaver than the kx125 (according to bikez.com, anyway) not too bad :0
I'd just have to make my own ring a ding ding noises I guess.

**L Rider** · 15th April 2010, 22:11

Is that all! I had never looked into it just "assumed" they'd weigh alot more. What does a KX250 weigh in comparison to a KX125 then?

**SpikedPunch** · 15th April 2010, 22:12

Same here, until like 5 mins ago!

Just proves you can't beleive everything you hear, haha.
Ok, I'm looking at '07's (cause I'm looking at 2nd hand bikes) apparently the kx125 is 87.0 kg dry and the kx250 is 92.5 kg dry.
