bought a new motcorss bike today, Suzuki Rm125, its nothing special like my last one, (Which was Stolen) but its something to keep me going! its fucking rapid  for £900 cant go wrong, just needs a little TLC
it has a full DEP system and the engine has been tuned what do you think of it?

90% of the time its not the bike, its the rider, but if you have a quicker bike it does help

weight transfer my friend!
its funny as hell when my mates used to get on my yz125, when it was new and just open it up and the front wheel would become airborne by about 4 foot

ive had a fair few bikes, i started off on a little italjet 50cc, then kx60 (old 1) learned gears, then a 94 kx80, then a brand new 2000 kx80, kept that for a while, then bought a brand new 2004 Kx85 (Sadly stolen) now the RM !

Must say 125 is very easy to get on and go, i found that with racing and didnt take long to adapt.
When i rode my mates ktm 520sx it was a beast but i loved the fact i may die any second

ye motocross is just an amazing buzz, ive riden a ktm sx 660 i didnt get it out of 3rd gear around the track, and it was still RAPID, it feels like nothing can stop you when u ride big bikes because they have so much power, but they can be very heavy, and dangerous...
