mostexcellentdude Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I recently picked up an 04 GasGas TxtPro Raga 300 and am interested in finding one for my wife as well. Trouble is, she's petite - 5'-2" and 120lbs. Good shape but not the strongest. She can't even kick my 300 over. I'm interested in picking up a smaller bike for her that might be easier for her to start. We live at 5,000ft elevation and could ride as high as 10,000ft. Would a 125 have too little power, especially considering our elevation? I'm leaning towards a 200 because although she's a decent rider, I don't want her overwhelmed with all the clutching a 125 might require. The main benefit I see with the 125 is I imagine it would be easier to kick over. Edited 3 hours ago by mostexcellentdude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonH Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago (edited) I’d suggest something like the Beta EVO 80 Sr. Your wife is petite and with little experience. The smaller frame and lighter bike would be easier for her to handle. It’s also a lot less expensive. You can always go bigger if she ends up liking it. A bigger bike could easily discourage her. It will work great at higher elevations with the correct jetting. Edited 2 hours ago by RonH 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
