Is this a decent 50?

My friend doesnt have enough money for even a used 50 so he's thinking about getting a generic one. I don't even know what these ones are called but heres the link to it. Will these atleast stand some beating up or are they complete garbage? could he get big bars on them? And he says it has a 70cc, will they be alot quicker then stock hondas?

No, you should go with Javo's that he's selling. There are two threads about them on this page. He is selling them for 450. They are awesome and Javo is a great guy to deal with.

Re: Is this a decent 50?

Ok after I posted I looked and saw the 50's from Javo and my friend gave him a call and see what it would cost w/ shipping. He's still debating but after reading this I'll tell him that buying from Javo would definately be the better deal for a few extra bucks. Thanks for the advice guys.

have you ever personally owned an mx crazy bike? you can only speak about knockoffs youve owned. i understand that no knockoff will as good as the real thing but the mxcrazy bike is VERY close. and for 450 bucks its a hell of a deal.

Re: Is this a decent 50?

the mx crazy bike is better than the real thing. Why spend 2X as much on a bike that has no power, crappy brakes... ****, with the money you would spend for tall bars and a big bore kit you could have bought a bike from javo.

its so easy to find deals like that, and look, its the same as a new stock one and theres no way a knock off can compair to that

Re: Is this a decent 50?

If your friend did infact have problems he should have called me and we could have worked it out.

Dont buy a knockoff if you dont want one. I dont care. I'm not trying to sell the best bike out there, it's not. I'm trying to sell a good bike for a great price. Thats all.

bro, just give it a rest period. My boy has a 05 crf50, first day he rode it, bent a peg. He had to get big bars cause he bent his stock ones. So what does that say for honda's? He rode my"knockoff" and now this fool says he's thinking about buying a chinese aka"knockoff"motor.

It's just like the crash cage debate. Nobody is ever going to win it, so let people buy what they want.
