I am 14 and most of my friends ride. I am going to start riding too. My first time actually riding on a trail, instead of in my friend's court, will be this monday so I am pretty new. I dirt jump mountain bikes so I am really confident and stable on two wheels.
Here:
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important): 125ish lbs. 5'8"
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? Very
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ????? trails and hills.
4) Do you have any riding experience? Not dirt bikes really. Dirt jumping bicycles though.
5) Do you think you will race ? Porobably not
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? Yes and I have friends to help.
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? Thinking 2 but depends on if it is green or red sticker in CA because my friend said that more 4s are green.
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? I'm getting used on craigslist/ classfields
9) How much do you plan to spend on a bike?0-2500ish give or take
10) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
I would like something that is very reliable and is pretty easy to work on.
If someone would like to fill me in a little bit on this whole green/red sticker thing and what is the deal with if you want to ride in CA but buy a bike that was originally used in some other state that dosen't have sticker qualifications and how would I go about getting it qualified?
Thanks.
