[QUOTE="BSWIFT, post: 1330834, member: 16802"] I second that. @200 lbs, riding a 125 in the sand is going to equal a rebuild fairly quickly. Anyone, regardless of weight, riding in the sand will put a heavy load on the engine with a faster wear and tear factor. For the rest of the riding you want to do, you could have a lot of fun on the 125. Do some searches in this forum on the year of 125's that you are looking at, you'll see common problems and questions that will help you decide. For me, I would look at the availability of parts. If it will all be online, pic your favorite color. If you have a local dealer that you get along with, buy the bike that they can support you on. You'll likely need to respring the 125 at your weight and maybe a revalve but springs are likely. This will help you with stability issues. Check out the suspension forum for more info. Have fun with whatever you choose. [/QUOTE]
