I've been interested in having one since I was a kid, but I never got one. I've driven three wheelers and four wheelers before, but never a motorcycle. Anybody have a good suggestion for a dirt bike to start out on?
I'm 5'10 and 165.
That said, it was because it was an enduro, not an race bike, which is where they get their reputation for having an insane powerband. I've heard race bikes are a pain in the ass to learn on and aren't good for anything but tracks. That's just what I've heard however, so keep that in mind.
Alright. Thanks for the help, guys. I'll let you know when I get hold of one.
Really not true. I barely rode on the track. My YZ250 was almost purely trail ridden and that was with no flywheel weight.
At the same time, I wasn't a beginner either.
Nothing beats the sound and smell of a two stroke.
