    The ttr 125 was my first bike about 15 years ago. Don’t worry too much about maintenance. These suckers never die. Just put fuel in the tank, clean the air filter every few rides, Change the oil once in a while, and lube the chain if you feel like it. They’re tanks

    I bought that same bike for my wife. Along with a little bike. I used them to train many other people how to ride. First on the little one, then within a few min, the TTR. Even kids at 10 years old can easily move up to the TTR 125. Its a good all-around trainer for all ages and sizes, men women and children. Good for them riding along trails with you as they learn. Its not powerful but it will get up to a high speed so you still have to have caution with newbs. Its just fun. Roman will need at least a YZF250 for himself after a week on the TTR. A nice small trailer just big enough for two dirtbikes and some kit and a cooler will make for an awesome day with friends riding. If you have a YZF450, YZF250, TTR125, and a little 50 or 80/4 on a trailer, groups will go out with you and bring food and fun and make lots of memories.

    Yes, 4 Stoke is correct for low maintenance. Easy to manage. Quieter. Glad you got Electric start for your daughter. lol. Wow, you have a lot to learn about transporting, ramps.. everything. lol. I am surprised your colleagues did not help you with this. Common Alex and Kase, give the man a hand. Andre, you are such a tall and well built man, you could pick that bike up and put it in the back of that little truck w/out a 6 foot ramp. Also, check into trailer hitch motorcycle carriers. You will find that superiorly more friendly for loading and unloading. Great for SUV's, .. well anything with a hitch. I have used mine on a variety of hitch vehicles and it beats the hell out of loading in and out of a truck. At least, until you start transporting 2 bikes at a time. Congrats on the 1st bike. Yamaha is what I started out on as well. 1974 Yamaha enduro. (used) This tromps my 1st bike. lol.

  • @jeffery1524
    @jeffery1524 3 роки тому

    Andrea, that is a great beginners bike. I bought my kids a 2000 and just sold it like a week ago. The guy who bought it had to put a top end in it. I think that is because I never got the valves adjusted. FYI two strokes are the same maintenance, but much easier to work on. Especially when you have to do a top end. The down side to the TTR125L is the rear drum brake. It will fade out really easy once your skills improve.

    @LolliWANG505 3 роки тому +1

    Definitely recommend getting either a crf250f or ttr230 for you Andre both are great bikes that don't sit to high and they won't kill you power wise either. And don't worry they're not maintenance heavy bikes.

    Rode the TTR230 at Rich Oliver’s Mystery School here in Cali (doing more MC training for my teenage son so he would be a better street riders)...very fun bike for basic off-roading. Was surprised when were were doing timed races and I dumped the clutch and got a wheelie from the start...my son asked me if I did that on purpose, unfortunately I did not. I normally ride a BMW S1000R and a R1200GSA but for off-road starter bike, I think you made a good choice.

    Carbs are no more maintenance then fuel injection. Use good non ethanol clean fuel, keep airfilter clean, do not leave fuel in carb sit for months. I have had zero carb issues in past 35+ years, dirt and road bikes. As a tip, stop letting kick start slam back, omo

You don't go on roadtrips with a bike but shredding at a bike park or wherever Andre is, then plugging it into the inverter in the truck bed while you have lunch and then shred some more would be really cool. Then when the day is done you just throw it in the bed and drive home, maybe stop at a gas station but that's that.
