the klx is a smaller frame. and she is in no way ready for a 2-stroke. she's been ridin a '79 Yamaha GT80, a 2-stroke yes, but not a modern MX by any means. the klx is a mid-size frame(she can touch the ground), and a 4-stroke 125 is about the right go power for her.

i picked up a DRZ 152L back in 03 for the little lady, she loves the bike. the dr is less expencive then the klx. if you really want her to ride green get green plastics and you are still $$ ahead.

they need to be jetted awayfrom stock (like all bikes, but the dr125 likes it a lot more)

I usually start her bike, then mine and let it warm up compleatly. other than that it is a great buy (i have fun futting it around the yard too :evil: )

Don't feel bad I type everything in an e-mail window then spell check copy and paste.  Worst part sometimes spell check can't figure out what I'm trying to spell.
