been thinkin about gettin/makin a supermoto stunt bike to play on and i was thinkin about the new crf150r, its supposed to be a pretty hot runner and isn't near as much to motard out as a 250/450, what do you guys think should i do it?... here's about how it would look

 

just throw street tires on the stock rims

 

^^ya

or get a 250+

 

i thought abut the 250 but they're too damn expensive to motard out, and i'm not a half asser so im out the whole street tires on stock wheels idea.... and i can get the 150 NEW for 3200 through a hookup... i cant find an 06+ 250 for less than 4500 that hasn't been beat to death for a whole race season

 

there really isn't any advantage to motard as apposed to street tires on stock rims with the 150

 

Never put street tires on stock rims it allways looks horible!!!!!!!

 

ya ok..

Who cares how it looks? Personally I put street tires on for a better ride, not to look cool
Sure I guess I coulda spent a few hundred or thousand on 17" rims, or I could slap a 130 on the rear for free, and a street tire up front for $30



But uh ya fromt what i'v heard 150r's are JUNK for anything but racing..

Honda alone recommends a top end rebuild every 20-30 hours..
And i'v been reading on many forums, people burning up their valves in 10-15 hours...

I'v also heard they run like crap below 5k rpm, and need to be in the power band to do anything..

Basically i'v heard they are junk bikes to just 'ride' and 'stunt'

but extremely fast for their size, and on par with a 450r power to weight ratio.

 

Well if you get a 250 you could be like me and buy CBR 600 f2 wheels and fab them up so they fit. All you need is spacers and caliper brackets. 520 sprocket and maybe a new chain.

 

not too bad of an idea.... if i could just find a 250 for around 3500 id be all over it

 

I have one for $3500

 

pics?

 

I want $3500 or best offer. We would need to ship it though unless you wanted to drive here (NH). I also have the f2 wheels for it if your interested

 

if you'll do 3500 shipped i may be interested... how many hours do you have on it?

 

That Kawi is a good deal.

As for the 150R - sick dirtbike, prolly a fast mini-supermoto, not the best for stunting IMO.

 

that new 150r is bad ***. Fast as hell & will kill a modded 85 all day.

 

Yeah but very expensive overall because they just came out. You could get a nice 250/450 for the same price.

 

yeah im lookin for a crf 250 for round 3000-3500.... i found a HELLA deal on a 06 yzf 450 for 2800 that a guy has only riddin a few hours on because he's scared of it.... but a 450 is too much for a sunt motard in my opinion

 

Wow, for that ^^^ price, I'ld get it. Screamin deal if it really has only been ridden a few hours. Even if you do think it is too much, buy it and resell it. You'll probably make a G.

 

no ways dude yzf 450s are good fors tunting have u seen conway from the imortal promo! he kills combos w/ no hand brake here check it
