| Anybody familiar with this bike ? I'm looking for a cheap bike to ride around dirt roads. Don't need a rocket but don't want to buy one that doesn't have any power either. Will it carry a passenger at a reasonable speed ? I'm about 160lbs, passenger about 130lbs. Thanks in advance.

| I dont think a 100 would be big enough or powerful enough to ride 2 up. Look for KLR650. Or if you want something really cheap get one of those knock off bikes from pepboys

| Thanks bigE, had my doubts as well. Problem I have with most off road bikes is I am "vertically challenged"......... short inseam. Can't get on some of the bigger bikes. I'll keep looking.

| Sprocket Pilot ![]() | How short are you? I know for me at 6'2" my drz400 I think is tall. The new 250 can fit my 5'4" to be wife..she says it looks like a girl's bike though. I hear the new Yamaha 250 will be for a shorter rider.
