Hey guys, I read over some of the old threads to see if I could find an answer to my questions. However, it seems like bike selection is very dependent upon body size so I decided to post my own topic. :) I'm 17 years old, 6'0, and 220 pounds. My parents own homes up in the Pennsylvania Poconos so I plan to do trail riding as well as riding through the neighborhood. What would be a good bike for me? From the little I've read it seems as though the KDX is the "forum favorite" but what size would suit my riding best?
Also, one of the main reasons I am looking at getting a dirt bike is because I want to eventually get a larger motorcycle. I figure the best way to learn is off the streets. :) Is this logic flawed in any way? If so, I apologize in advance. I would also like to apologize if my questions seems "stupid" to you. I frequent other forums so I know how frustrating newbies can be sometimes... Thanks guys in advance!
