Howdy Folks! New to dirt here in Texas. I've been riding street for many years. Sport bikes primarily.
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important)- 5'6" 30 inseam 170 lbs
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? 45 yoa and will ride fairly aggressively
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ????? trail and motocross
4) Do you have any riding experience? currently have and ride 3 sport bikes
5) Do you think you will race ? no
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? yes
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? 2 or 4 stroke is fine kaw, suz, yam or Honda
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? plenty of dealers and brands
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike? 2-4k used
10) Do you live in California? no
11) Your age? 45
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion- I'm lookin for a lower seat height 36'-37' ok. Under 240 curb weight and capable of jumping. Nothing serious. low end torque and preferrably watercooled. I'm open to ideas.
Maybe a kx250f?
Thanks folks
