Does size matter?

I am 6'2" 190 lbs and want to start racing 125 gp. What bikes are recommended. Any info would be great. Also anyone out there from N. Georgia area to talk to.

I think you better look at the Yamaha. I just bought a new RS and it has alot less room than the Yamaha I have had for the last 2 years. I have ordered the Hjelm big boy rear sets for the Honda in hopes I can get some needed room. My situation is due to injury more than anything else. I am 6' tall minus the knee injury I could fit on either bike no problem. I recomend that you get to the track and sit on a few bikes. They always feel bad when you do this but it isnt as bad as you think. Start stretching all the time. The biggest problem is your feet falling asleep while riding.

Thanks Bill for the info. I am talking to a man right now about a 95 tz 125. Any more info would be great. I have a 92 zx7r I am waiting to sell now as soon as it is out of the stable I will have a 125 to join the fun with you guys.
