    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

We have been looking for an appropriate dirt bike for my wife ever since we sold the Bandit 400.
We decided on looking at Yamaha TTR 125 as there seemed to be a few around, they are cheap, reliable and very easy to ride. Plus it wiil be a good size for our son to step into once my wife feel comfortable enough to move to something a bit bigger.
We picked it up about 150 miles form home up in Campbell River. Nice shape, will need a few minor things. I was owned by a dirt biking family so I'm confident that it was properly looked after.
A good omen is that it was pouring when we picked it up..just like all my bikes that I have been happy with.:D

Sweet man. I wish I could get my wife into speed. I had to get a life insurance policy just to start building a Motorcycle.
 
Sweet! Nothing keeps a family happier than poking along the back-roads/trails on dirt bikes. You can all share in the beautiful views together. :clap:

What does speed have to do with it? It's a TTR 125!

Everyone who has one says good things about it.

What a perfect bike for a young lady to learn to ride.

I wonder what would happen if one day Jessica goes to park the Subaru in the garage and saw a new to her dirtbike? I know she is not afraid of getting dirty...

This is the expression elicited just BEFORE going out at the popkum Motosports Park (only slightly exaggerated):



and after (no shots of her riding, though)
