gio 110 vs 125 vs 140

so ive been buying quads but miss bikes so want to get a good little trail rider. comparing these 3 bikes the 125 seems best for the buck but im 200lbs and dont want something too small, any suggestions? its hard to tell if the 140cc is full size?

Well TYE, i had the 125cc bike and yes it's kinda small, i ended up getting the 250cc 19"/16" and it's a nice size, but for a nice lightweight bike to putt around on i'd probably try the 140cc, especially if you think your gf might want to try it, the 250cc feels heavy and my gf won't touch it, she did take the 125cc out though.

I like the look of that little 140cc Gio dirt bike.. I think there is some videos of it being tested, it doesn't look too small. Look on the Gio site for the vids, and if not there, on youtube. Might give you a size idea.

yeah im leaning towards the 140cc. i origionally heard of gio because of the 110 pit bike. other than your 250 (which is awesome waynev) ive never seen any other models in person but the 140 looks like a smaller verson so ill start my bidding. i think they run about 450? thanks

im 180pds and my 200cc quad is slow by my standards.. id suggest getting the 250cc.. sooner or later you are going to want more power.. every one wants more power sooner or later..

ive also got a beast and with the right upgrades i wouldnt call it slow. i havent clocked it yet but i never see 4th on any trails im guessing 70-75km?. the carb is a must but the pipe sounds amazing.

Make sure you get the X33 17"/14" not the X80 14"/12", the X33 will be bigger.
