Regardless of the speed of whichever bike (with the same displacement) has, welcome aboard! Just look around and I'm sure you'll find plenty of info. If not, ask! Someone here has the answer (even though it probably isn't me!).

Hey Lurkable!
The 125 was a great bike to start riding with! I originally wanted the 250 but by the time I went to the dealers they were all sold out last year! So I grabbed a used 125 to play around with and learn. Unfortunately I am vertically challenged (5'2") so I could only sit on the 125 & 250 and have both feet touch ground! Otherwise I would have prob upgraded to a bigger bike! |

Just sucks cuz it makes it hard for me to reverse bike when my feet are not flat footed....sometimes I have to get off bike and walk it back esp. if it is on a downhill slant! |

Welcome Goldie! If you decide that you'd like the seat a little lower- I only have nice things to say about the Roaring Toyz lowering links. Check them out in the DIY section!
