Lookin to buy a 50. Should I go CRF or XR??
Lookin to buy a 50. Should I go CRF or XR??
So I've been ridin my boy Bmore John's 50 the other day and I'm hooked already. I've seen some Honda XR 50's and CRF 50's. I think the main difference is the XR has a 5 speed manual tranny and the CRF has a 3 speed auto. Any other differences, and which is better for what?

I never said I was riding a 5 spd XR50. I said I was ridin my boy John's 50. It's a CRF. I got the idea that the XR 50 was a 5 speed from http://www.bikez.com/bike/index.php?bike=20268. So if it's bad info sue me. So sorry I asked a question I didn't know the answer too. Jesus, way to try and shoot down a newbie for tryin to get some info.

Sorry CrazyD and acanz, my ******* comment was sent at randomjibrish. Ask a simple question with some info from a retarded site you though was credible and get flamed. I was wondering why a bike with 50cc's would need a 5spd, but that's why I asked what's goin on. I appreciate the info from you two looks like I'm goin to the Honda Dealer to get me a CRF.

Whatever Louisville, let me slow it down for you, see if that helps. I knew the CRF was a three speed I rode it for an hour and never took it outta 1st and 2nd. I've never ridden a XR... never.. ever. So I researched it and got some bull info. Didn't think it made sense so I asked and the Barbeque began.
Re: Lookin to buy a 50. Should I go CRF or XR??
dont get pissed, i was asking you a relevant question. looked more like you were stating a fact about them, and asking if there was any more difference to me..... good try @ covering up though lmmfao, i feel ya!
i hear the XR's are faster (i have a xr and a crf... the xr is faster in my case, and stock... my crf has a few mods, but stock motor, and gets smoked) i like the xr plastics better cause the back/side # plates are all 1 piece, and the crf's are 3 pieces, and the side # plate tabs get broken easy, but do look a lil better than the xr. lil advice, BUY USED, and preferabally allready modded, cause you spend a fortune getting rid of the stock junk to make them rideable (big bar kit, rear shock, front forks ect) i got about $1300 in mine and only paid $600 for it if that tells you anything, and all my parts (90%) are used

Re: Lookin to buy a 50. Should I go CRF or XR??
Yeah I was lookin but I'm not trying to drive to KY and I'm of the same opinion you are, 50's are more fun. Nice bike for the price though.
Re: Lookin to buy a 50. Should I go CRF or XR??
I heard there is a place in Milwaukee , WI that sells new 2006 crf's for $669 and no freight charge . (not including tax) .
The place is called "Don and Roys" and it is on Bluemound avenue .
I don't know if it is true though
