[QUOTE="AaronTheory, post: 717331, member: 42748"] I have very little experience on bikes, but ive rode quads from time to time, just never owned one. I am 6'0" and about 180lbs. I just sold my 68 Camaro and I have some extra cash so I want to get a bike. I live on the Cali central coast so I will most likely do a lot of riding at the pismo dunes. I have approximately $2000 to spend on something. I think I could probably get a decent RM/YZ/KX/CR in the 98-00yr range for about this much. My question is this. Should I get a 125, or a 250? Lots of people tell me that a 250 is a big bike with a lot of power for a beginner, but I am pretty strong and big so I might be able to handle it. I like the way it feels to sit on a 125, and they tend to be slightly cheaper, and a lot of people have told me that I could have a lot of fun on a 125 (although it wont climb EVERY hill at the dunes). I am really not sure which bike will suit my needs the best. I dont want to invest in a bike that I will want to move up from within just a few months, but I dont want to get something thats way too powerful and big for me. Please give me your suggestions.
