Dirt Biking with a YZ125 (167cc) in Waiperous
It was about time to try it out and rip some trails with 45HP under!! I went out with Ross and tried out his YZ125 (which is actually a 167cc after an upgraded cylinder). So much fun, but scary at the same time. Too much power to control and 10 times heavier than a bicycle ::--) Going up is not a problem if you have the right speed and momentum to keep the bike away from skidding to much, it was wet and slippery roots made much worse ! I ended up in water puddles more that once.. He has 3 bikes, a Husky 250cc with a 300cc kit on it, a Sherco 300 4 strokes and this YZ. All of them ride very well, although from all the lifting I had to do I would consider to get a YZ125 myself since it will be easier to handle and move around if I get in troubles in the bushes.. I bought Nick and the kids a mine JR50cc Suzuki which is a blast ! Nick is very cautious and still in training, where Lucas is a natural giver and all he wants in gas and speed. ...
