I am looking to buy a bike and start riding motocross with the long term goal of getting into fmx. I had a bike 4 years ago, a xr 100. There are 5 bikes I am looking into right now and wanted more experienced riders suggestion on what to get. I basically want to know which is best for a BEGINNER in fmx. And which is the best for the money. I am not going to jump right into fmx like I said I have get into just riding again first and get my riding skills up to par but I am not in a financial situation to buy a new bike every year. Anyways here are the bikes. Any input is welcome.

2007 KX250F $2,999
2006 RM125 $3,500
2004 CRF250R $2,800
2003 CR125 $2,200
2000 YZ125 $2,500

get a 2 stroke 250 and go nuts

GreenMX

Yeah but I can't find any 250 2 strokes in my area and in my price range.

Dilts646

Out of them options get the kx250f but like said above, get a 2 stroke 250..

txmotox

the 03 cr 125 is to much its only worth about 1,500
the 00 yz 125 is to much its only worth about 1,000
Both bikes are nice just the prices are to much, and if you want to fmx and if i were you id get a 250 2 stroker, but im not you just my 2 cents.

GreenMX

Ok two more bikes I have found. How about:

2005 KX125 $1,800



1998 KX250 $2,000

Dilts646

How are you not finding better deals? Most of the bikes you have listed are WAY over priced!

That 05 kx125 isn't to bad of a deal though.

txmotox

that 98 kx250 is way to high, the kx 125 if you had cash money you could get it around 1500 thats better than nothing

GreenMX

I'm looking on cycletrader.com any suggestions on better places to look?

craigslist

navajowalks

yeah try craigslist, if that doesn't work i have a 2002 cr 250 that i'll sell you for $1500 and for $500 more i'll throw in a 1997 cr 250

navajowalks

a 125 might be okay to get started but youll want more sooner that you think. i started with a 125 but ended up having (2) 250s with in a year.

VIFKtheBUTCHER

i'm looking for a solid 2 stroke!! Can you ship? Or know of any?

navajowalks

i'm not really sure how i would go about that (shipping) not in a need to sell postion right now, just don't really ride it much anymore, and when i do i tend to hurt myself.... lol

I'll try looking into it alittle allthough i'm going to that ride in okc this weekend and have been very busy at work so happening right away probably wont happen... heck ever been to colorado? come get it and you can tear it up in the mountains a lil bit before you go back home
