Went to the local dealership looking for a bike and I saw a 2003 CR125.. Asking price slashed down to $4499 from $5099..
I was planning on getting a WR250F but the dealership couldn't make give me a good deal on it..
Is this a good deal? They had a sign that said $4499 and I can get an out of state addy so it will be out the door... Should I even try to get it lower?
My other concern was if the CR125 would keep me happy, but after talking with the guys ont he KDX forum it looks like I will be really happy with an MX bike.. All I will need to do is adjust a few things to make it a little more trail friendly for the times that I do go on the trails.. :)
Some information about myself.. Im 23, I weigh a hefty 195lbs and Im 6'1" tall.. I haven't rode since I was around 13 years old so its been awhile..
Type of riding.. Im going to be doing a combination of trail riding and MX riding.. I prefer MX style riding but the trails are closer to my house so I will ride the trails whenever I have the chance..
My main concern is that I get a bike that has a good enough suspension so Im happy on the track (which the CR has).. The last dealership I went to told me to stay away from the MX bikes because they require lots of maintenance.. How much maintenance are we talking about here? I won't be doing any racing.. I just want to have some fun on the trails and MX course..
Thanks for the help..
