Hey guys & gals...
I'm getting back into riding after not riding since I was 10 yrs old, which is almost 16yrs. Things have changed so much since then.
1) Physical Size: 6'2", 250lbs
2) How physical/aggressive are you?
I'm a big agressive guy.
3) What do you plan to ride?
Trails, fields & dirt roads until I get comfortable again, then back into MX
4) Do you have any riding experience?
Some, but as I said above, I'm 16yrs removed from it and things have changed an awful lot.
5) Do you think you will race?
Maybe, not right away though.
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work?
Not extremely mechanically inclined, but I'm a fast learner.
7) Do you have a preference to brand/motor choice?
I've always liked Kawasaki, but I'm open to pretty much anything. I'm leaning towards a 4 stroke though.
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry?
You name it, I can find it within a 45min drive
9) How much do you plan to spend on a bike?
$5000 Cdn is the top limit, although I may just bite the bullet and buy new...that I still haven't decided yet.
10) Do you live in California?
Nope, Abbotsford, British Columbia
11) Anything else that you think would help form an opinion:
Not that I can think of... although I have a co-worker who is quite into riding that tells me that I should look towards a 250 4 stroke as I have been out of things for so long, says a 250 2 stroke may be to much for me and too steep of a re-learning curve..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
