I don't have to run a crash cage on my fiddy though... hehe

 

I'd buy a crash cage for my fiddy

 

z fiddys are hondas lmao! just messin with u bro i think im goin with the z fiddy thanx for all the help.

 

dude, 800 for a used z50 seems like alot of money. i have both and i think the xr is more maneuverable. the z50s are too wide. the z does have bigger bars stock if you arent planning on putting any money into it. but a fixed up xr is the setup.

 

And the z seat are frickin stiff. That hurts after a wile.

 

I would rather have the wide seat, then have that lil xr seat.....xr seat is way more uncomfortable for me..... of course I'm 6'7" 240 lbs...

 

The XR seat is just torture.. and I'm only 5'6" 155lbs

 

I wouldnt mind having a Z50.....but you have to look at all the aftermarket parts for the XR.....

steve

 

5'6" with 6 inch heels on

 

same here... this happened last night another highchair wheelie gone bad.

 

Just get an aftermarket tall seat & gripper cover. Makes it easier to ride too, as your legs aren't as scrunched up. I'm 5'11" 230 lbs BTW, and it's comfy for me.

Like I said, stock for stock the Z is more comfy. But put a few goodies on the XR and it's just as comfy as the Z and more capable. And of course the sky is the limit as far as mods go for the XRs.

 

If your lookin to freestyle, xr50 is the way to go.

 

i have a 73 z50a. that things a couch.

 

AND THE TIRES ARE FATTER WHICH MAKE FOR MORE STABLE WHEELES, MY BUDDY HASS A XR ASND i CAN WHEELIT BUT USEED TO TEND TO GO TOT LEFT OR RIGHT, NOW i AM WHEELIE BOTH, BUT LIKE MY Z BETTER , BUT WILL PROLLY GET AN XR ALSO :-)

 

Yea the nice old z seats are a couch, but the 90s are freackin a inch tall and stiffer than a mx bike seat. not forgiving, but i like the xr100 seat, nice and soft, but that me. My sisters 76 xr75 isthe best trail bike setup, i love that thing cept it handles for ****.

 

i don't want to work , i want to bang on the drum all day. <--

 

see i like the Z much better than the XR. i went on an Xr and crashed the thing, i went on an Z and learned to wheelie the thing. i feel more comfortable learning with the Z, then i could always move up to an Xr. maybe thats just me???????

 

i love my XR.. its wicked compared to a Z.. i also have a Z and don't like it much.. it weighs a ton.. you can do much more on the xr then the z, i think the only thing its good for is crusing streets and wheelies..
