    Like the look of this bike. Its a first bike for me. Im 6ft though so will it look pretty small or is it a decent size. Also does it sound like a good choice. Really unsure what to get.

    Also a lad i know who has a bike also said to me not to get anything more then 4 years old as it will be knackered. Seems a bit odd to me. Is this true?

    This is a 2 stroke bike so it will be powerful enough alright but your pal isn't far wrong-2 strokes aren't made to last and if it's got any sort of mileage it will be a candidate for trouble. A 250cc four stroke would allow you to buy an older bike but a low mileage TDR would be grand. It has components from the old TDM850 like headlights and font fairing so is easily mistaken for the 850 until you see the skinny wheels.
