I am a twenty year old female and am getting my first big bike (I own an XR 50) and need help. Help pick new bike! Here's the form I found on a different post to help me....
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important) 5'3 120 lb.
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? moderately aggresive (sports and previous riding)
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ????? Probably tracks, with friends...
4) Do you have any riding experience? A tiny bit, a couple years on 50's and quads.
5) Do you think you will race ? probably not, but I would love to
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? No, sadly I know nothing about maintenance of a dirt bike and would need help from others on this.
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? I really like Hondas because I have a lot of friends that ride red, but I am open to others.
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? Yes I live by a bunch of dealers, whom have many brands, thats not a problem.
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike? I would like to stay significantly under $3000
10) Do you live in California? Sure do
11) Your age? 20
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
This is a first bike, I am selling my XR50 and getting a big bike and a trailer so I can LEARN to ride. I have friends that said they will take me out and teach me... but I would like an easy-to-learn, easy-to-ride bike that I would have room to improve on.
Thanks so much for any help!!!!!
