To buy, or not to buy? - XR50 & Minibike Forums

jc6711 · 05-05-2008, 07:09 PM

So right now i have a 2002 XR100R. It is currently for sale. Wut i am debating is wut to get when it sells. I was thinking about getting a 125cc dirt bike, but that isnt stunt freindly. I was thinking about getting a 50.

So i have two questoins for you.

1. Should i buy the 50?

2. Is there any certain one i shoudl get? Other stuf i need to know?

Thanks.

1) yes!
2) Honda, Honda, and a little extra Honda.

the ttr 125l is very stunt friendly...

lil under powered but so is the 50...

and with the ttr you'll learn the clutch, the 50 is good for drunk whoolies and thats about it...

i would go with a crf150 if i could

i would never get rid of a hundo to get a 50... quit wasting your time spending money on things that aren't big bikes.

the 100 actualy realy sucks for stunting

...

and not everyone can afford a big bike... that was my problem for a year and a half...

I think he's treading water by getting rid of his dirtbike for a 50.

50Outlaw · 05-05-2008, 08:14 PM

well the 50 is actualy alot more stuntable than the 100... but all the 50 will teach is brake control, with the 125 he'll learn clutch and brake control

like i said before, get the crf 150...

jc6711 · 05-05-2008, 08:21 PM

i already have clutch and all that from my 100.

edit...nvm i just asked my dad about getting one, and he yelled at me. Lol so yeah he says its a waste of money and will not be allowed to ride the other bikes.

50Outlaw · 05-05-2008, 08:23 PM

like i said though... the 100 sucks for stunting...

if your going to get a 125 then get the ttr 125L

jc6711 · 05-05-2008, 08:35 PM

if i get a 125 it will be a two stroke racing one. Not the greatest for stunting. But i gues it will have to work.

50Outlaw · 05-05-2008, 08:41 PM

oooo...

yeah dont even bother with that...

save your $$$$ and buy the crf150 or a big bike

jc6711 · 05-05-2008, 09:22 PM

i wont be able to afford a crf150r. By the time i get the money i will have my licsense and would be buying a street bike to stunt.

Maybe if i can find a xr400 or something....lol. Better powerband but probaly imposible to do any slow stuff.

50Outlaw · 05-05-2008, 09:24 PM

if your going that big get a crf 450

Black03R1 · 05-05-2008, 09:25 PM

get one of each! A honda fiddy is the shit. I ride the hell out of mine, more than my cr 125. But took the fiddy in the dirt the other day and rollin over all the monster dirtbike jumps I wanted to get on my Cr bad!
