YZ125 value?

**iludez** · 17th May 2018, 08:31

So I've picked up a 2005 yz125, I got it thinking I'd be fine on it but I'm 5'5 and 70 kgs and found its a bit big for me. It's got 21" wheels front and rear so sits really high.

It's in really good Nick besides some surface rust. Has a bunch of mods done to it, I got it from a trade so I'm trying to find out it's value. But it's difficult, the closest one to it has a bid on trade me at $2400. That has no history and no nice mods, this has been fully rebuilt 44 hours ago and runs like a beast. Hard to hold on that's for sure.

I'm going to put it on trade me but I'd like to know a base figure to try?

You can reduce the height by taking alot of the foam out of the seat.

I don't think you'll find many dirt bikes any lower ( it'll be 21 front, 19 rear as an aside ), there is the KTM freeride, but that's a very different style of bike.

Yeah I thought of that but it's also the weight is a bit much for me I feel.
