I don't have any experience of the Gas Gas 125s but I can say that the best fun (& results) I ever had in enduros were on a 125.

There's nothing like having a bigmouth on a 300 laught at you at the start and say something dumb like "waddya gonna do on that buzzbomb?" and see his face when you come in 5th overall out of 150 and he's 130th.

I overheard one guy, an ex SA national enduro champion, saying he couldn't believe that he got toasted by a 125 (he was on a 250).

Braking. Jeez you can leave your braking late on a 125. I was having a really good dust up with a mate and he tried to overtake me on a steep downhill and wouldn't brake until I braked. All I heard was "F%$k C&nt....." followed by the snapping of (large) branches as he dissapeared into the undergrowth.

One of the reasons I chose a 125 was that I kept hearing people say that you gotta have a big bike for off-road. "Schmucks", I thought to myself, "It's not the bike it's the rider.".

He he..sweet memeories.
