Hello,
First of all, you guys have a nice forum here... Better than the ones I've checked out. I've been wanting to get into MX, but couldnt due to lack of finances. But now, I have the chance to and its got me real excited. Of course, I have the common question to ask: What bike is suited for me? Heres my info...
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important)
2) How physical / aggressive are you ?
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ?????
4) Do you have any riding experience?
5) Do you think you will race ?
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work?
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)?
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry?
9) How much do you plan to spend on a bike?
10) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
1) I'm 5'9'' (maybe close to 5'10" now...), weigh 165-170
2) I played football and basketball for 5+ years. 1st string center for football if that counts for anything lol.
3) MX/SX tracks
4) No
5) I eventually plan to as I gain experience.
6) I'm somewhat mechanically inclined.
7) Which ever is suited for my experience, which is none.
8) There are plenty of dealers with all the main brands (Honda Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki).
9) $2500 and less. Don't want to buy new.
10) Nope
Thanks for the help!
