Crazy Newbie :P

Heya i am thinking about getting my first bike as im normally a pillionpassenger.

Im quite short im like 5’4 or 5’5 and i can only ride a 125cc as im a learner.

I was wondering what bike should i buy i was thinking a dirtbike but my mate said my feet wouldnt touch the floor because im so short.

But do you think my feet would touch the floor if i got a Yamaha yzf 125cc.

Thanks x

Welcome to LB :slight_smile:
Personally i wudnt buy a 125 that looks like a sports bike, it breaks my heart… but thats just me :stuck_out_tongue: Go for the offroader they are better!

I would suggest you get a Honda CM 125 or something similar in design to that, they tend to be lower to the floor in seat height and also have a riding style that is more sedate which I always think is good for a person getting their first bike.I wouldn’t suggest the YZF personally, though I do think it looks great, as a first bike I don’t think it is the best plan. Oh and welcome to the forum.

welcome to LB!

if your just starting of i recommend a ybr 125 :slight_smile:

Hi and welcome - I’m relatively new too.

There’s some pretty nice 125’s, but like you, I hate not being close to the ground when I put my feet down.

If you’re looking for a sports style bike, try a Honda CBR 125. They’re quite nice, small, but quick and sporty (I had a go on a mate’s earlier)

I, on the other hand, chose a more elegant, relaxed and MUCH BETTER route and went for my lovely 125 cruiser, a Yamaha Dragstar, looks like this (that’s not my one - that’s just a pic off the net)

Hope you find what you want :slight_smile:

welcome welcome :slight_smile:

From a newer newbie to a slightly less newbie, welcome:)

Don’t, you soon will be:D My bad eh?
