too short?

[mhpspeed]

I just sold my xr100, and still have my dads xr200 which I ride great, but I want bigger and better, I was thinking of a cr125 but Im only 5'5 and my toes just barely touch the ground, but when I lean over I can keep the bike up, I know once i get going I can keep it up, I have heard as long as when u lean over and can keep the bike up its fine, is this right? I want a bike I can keep for awhile, or should I just get a cr85 expert wich I can sit on wiht the front of me feet on the ground? just need some advice, the only thing I am worried about on the 85 is growing out of it cause I am growing alot lately, again im 5'5, 15 years old and 120 pounds. thanks for any advice u can give.

It is funny you say that my friend is a little shorter and he jumoed from a 60 to a YZ 125 now he was just about the same, could barly touch then when he elaned he could touch.... well now he just got rid of the bike aobut 3 weeks ago ebuacse it was too big, he was fuine when he rose but when yuor riding and you go paly in the mud and mess aroudn he couldnt do all that cause he couldnt put a foot down. The first tiem we went riding he got stuck in the mud and couldnt gbet out cuase too much bike, he is now gonig to a 80. I think you can ride it if your good enough

u should consider a hydraulic suspension setup like dr.dre uses in the 64 impala to lower it to the ground.

I'm 5'6" and I have no problem with my 00' YZ 125.

hondacobra, after reading your replies I suddenly have the urge to yell BullShit
you probably wouldn't know an MX bike if it landed on top of you.

well you know you can adjust the hieght of your suspension, or the preload hight of it. so that when you sit on it, the bike drops just enough so you can put your foot down on the ground. and for the record i am telling you to go out and buy a cr 500

you will never outgrow this bike

on second thought i dont htink you could kick start it.....

you cant go wrong with a 125, they are very light and have decent power. just make sure when you get it you have the store adjst the height to suit you and you'll be all set
