MXFastGuy said:I should also add that there's no disrespect intended for guys who like to tinker with their bikes and blow a lot of money, more power to them. As long as they know the latest and "greatest" isn't necessary when it actually comes down to lap times.
duke said:for the guy/gal who simply wants to compete for the shear fun of it and isn't concerned over points, etc.. that a good, clean "whatever" from the mid nineties on would be more then adequate for their needs.
duke said:I believe Dirt Rider also did an article where they took a 94 CR250 freshened it up and showed how for about 1/4 to 1/3 the cost of a new bike, they could convert an 11 year old bike into a comptetetive machine. .
bclapham said:sorry, but i think the article was stupid- they spent more on that bike than what it was actually worth. You could easily buy a good condition 2000-2004 250 MX bike for $1900 or a hair more if you shopped around.
Putting 2 grand into a 10 year old bike that you would be lucky to sell for a grand is hardly a bargain now is it?
that said, i would happily go out and buy a 1987cr250 if i could find one.
