I'm a new rider that would like to take up this sport. i'm still undecided between a bike or a quad. all of my riding will be on a farm with homemade stuff, trails, and possibly private track rentals. I do not plan to race at all. I have looked into the honda 230f as well as the yamaha tt-r230. I am a bigger guy that doesn't have a problem with reaching the ground. I don't want a pig either and from what i have read they both are. I would like to have something that I can snap down on when i feel like it but have to run balls to the wall all of the time either. probably leading towards a 4-stroke right? what would my best bet be.
