Message: [QUOTE="IndyMX, post: 1344579, member: 71057"] I'm guessing that you wouldn't be happy with the CRF150F for very long. They're slow, heavy and not very powerful. A good beginner trailbike, no doubt. But if you plan on racing, no.. not a good choice. What kind of racing do you want to do? With your budget of $2500, I'd suggest you think about a 2 stroke. Say a newer (2004 -2006) CR125. You might even have a few bucks left over to get some proper gear. With $2500, you just aren't going to find many good newer 4 strokes, that aren't hammered. Plus, I'd suggest against a modern 4 stroke race bike for a real beginner. Learn to ride a 2 stroke, and you will be able to transition to a 4 stroke much easier, and can learn about motorcycle maintenance without having to worry about the crap you MUST deal with on a used 4 stroke. (guess how I know this) Thanks.. It was time for a change. [/QUOTE]
