[QUOTE="SpDyKen, post: 1259294, member: 60208"] You'll be glad you came back! I'm 50, 240#, a former MX, XC, and roadracer. I started back about 4 years ago, when I bought small XR's for my kids. I'm on my second YZ125, ride almost all in the woods, and absolutely loving riding again. Being a former racer, I prefer to be able to ride a bike aggresively, so the 125's suit me to a 'T.' Heck, when I first started riding with adults, I became known as 'the fast guy on the XR100.' I am still amazed at how much low-end a stock, but well jetted (critical!) '06 YZ125 has. If someone gets away from me it's because they are a better rider than me. I feel like the power of my current YZ125 is very comparable to my last 250, a 1981 YZ. The ride and handling of a modern 125 will blow you away. We [I]are[/I] in America, though, where bigger is always better, according to most. The macho men will all tell you here that 'you must have at least a 250, especially a man of your size.' I think that they are all trying to compensate for some other inadequecy in their lives I say buy whatever [I]you[/I] think you will have the most fun on; I'm certain you'll be right. Welcome back, KW [/QUOTE]
