Hello from Canada

[Motylka]

Hey, I'm Maja. New to this sport. My fiance is into 4X4/offroading with all his friends and I wanted to be more involved with them so I decided to get a bike. I'm looking at getting a '00 TTR125L. I've read that this will be the best suited bike for me as a beginner. I'm 5'5 and 135lbs.
I'm going to use the bike mostly in the woods climbing hills and some damp terrain. Also, I know that my fiance won't stay off this bike. At 5'11 and 165lbs, he isn't too big for it?

Welcome to the site Maja :cool:

Be sure and go to your User CP and update information relating to your location, type of riding, etc. After that grab a spot on the couch and tell us a bit about yourself. How long you have been riding, what kind of riding you prefer, where you are located, etc. We will do our best to hook you up with some fellow dirt bike enthusiasts. We have a large group of folks in Canada and there is even one local chapter forum. Check out the Ontario Chapter forum for opportunities to hook up with some fellow DRNers, if you are in Ontario.

As far as bikes go, the TTR is a great starter bike and yes your fiance will be able to ride it although it will be small for him. Tell him to get a bike so he will be able to keep up with you on the trails. ;)

Be sure and check out the Women's Forum. There are a great bunch of gals in there and they are always willing to help.

Again, welcome to the site and shout if you have any questions!
