Well, my folks finally are allowing me to pick up a dirt bike so here is my info:
1) your physical size- 155lbs, 6'0''/6'1''.
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? Pretty physically aggressive
3) what do you plan to ride- Fields, woods, occasional track.
4) Do you have any riding experience? No.
5) Do you think you will race ? No.
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? I know my way around a garage.
7) Do YOU have a preference to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? No preference.
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? Yes, plenty of dealers. I was also thinking about craigslist too.
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike? No more than $1000.
10) Do you live in California? Oregon.
11) Your age? 16
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion. This is my first bike so I do not need something fancy, but would like something that will last awhile.
I was wondering for my size what cc bike would be the best? Would a Honda XR 100 carry me around pretty good?
Thanks everyone!
