I shattered my legs on a modded CR250R.
I just recently bought a YZ 125 with lots of hopups and sold it with enough profit to buy my GY-5.

Took the YZ out a few times and it was a RIPPER! Barely goose the throttle and it would hit the powerband HARD. AWESOME! I loved the quick speed of it and wanted to keep it but I know how fast you can get launched into the air only to slam on the flat bottom. Just sitting here thinking about it makes me wish I still had it BUT with little ones I wouldn't have much time to get out and ride and I can't afford to be in a wheelchair again.

So... The Lifan is a turd compared to my previous dirt bikes but it'll be more practical for me. I could barely gas the YZ in the field out back and it would shoot big ole roosters. Tried it with the Lifan and the rear tire usually hooks up and bogs down the engine. Booo
