new to riding 50s

I bought a 2007 Honda crf50. I pick it up friday the 20th. Is there anything besides the bar kit I should get. Any tips for stunting it would be helpful.

you will love it! yay i'm so happy for you. you should practice ASAP and enjoy.

There are soooo many cool upgrades after you just get basics.

Start with the bigger bars...then you can get a handbrake, rear pegs, grip seat. You can really do anything on a stocker, but if u really want you can upgrade the motor for more power and i like street tires...there are too many upgrades to cover!

Post pics!

If you weigh over 80lbs get heavy duty springs for the front and either a H/D rear shock or spring. Remember to cover the rear brake!

Re: new to riding 50s

I think that they covered the upgrades pretty well above. As far as stunting, its harder than it looks. Keep practicing and you will get it. Also, you don't need an engine kit to stunt, contrary to what you might first believe or others might tell you. I weigh 240 and mine stunts just fine. Just big bars, upgraded springs and lots of practice.
