| | the 85`s are too small for you no doubt - the ktm 105 or a rm100 or kx100 would be good for you. I used to own a rm 125 and sold it to later on buy a kx100 when I had time to ride again. I find the height better for me on the kx 100 and I am 5`7 and also I find the power very similar to the 125 - less engine but a lot less weight too - so it balances out. So, either one of those 100 cc bikes or the sx 105 would be good for you I think. My understanding however is that the KTM is more expensive to buy and to maintain - you may want to think about that too - the KX 100 so far has seemed extremely reliable compared with my previous RM which was easy to foul and hell to start up cold - I hope this helps!! |

| | Try a 250f, the powerband isn't as snappy as a 125 two stroke and you will get used to it faster. Also you can lower it about an inch. |
