well honestly, its a good learners bike for a kid, but a 100 is too small to really ride around. its like this, you have a 2wd ranger and you want to build a 2wd crawler but you can only go so far. your ranger has multiple purposes, but if you wanted a strait off road only crawler you wouldnt buy a 2wd. that dirt bike will get you around, yes. buuuuut within a few weeks you are going to be blowing the motor cause you have it red lined the whole time trying to suck every ounce of power out of it. also that bike wont get you through any sand, and the small bikes like that dont do good in bumps, the suspension is kinda crappy and the wheels are too small. you wont have power when you need to power through, over or up something. too many downsides to a small bike.

Iwould not buy anything smaller than a 250

it depends on his riding skills. I mean something like an xr 200 could be a good trail bike for him, and they are cheap. just depends on what he wants to do with it. he also weighs maybe 130-140 pounds so a good 250 could destroy him without much experience. how much tim on a bike do you have morg and what do you want to do with it?

You are very right about a 250 if he never has got on a dirt bike before it could

be to much for him. the Honda 230 is a good starter bike also ,

[2004xlmiller]

thats awesome wes!

and to be honest ive only ridden a dirt bike a few times. quads a bit more. pretty sure the one i rode in pismo was a honda ex400. and i wanna be able to take it to PC whenever i want to, pismo every once in a while, as well as places around tahoe. i dont think id bring it up to the dunes here, no place to store it.

 

[ben10]

Yeah get something at least 200 CC or a 2 stroke 125.

Wes and i were talking about doing a snow run this Sunday if anyone is down. Its raining in Tahoe right now so its not a sure thing. Running on ice is super sketchy so unless it dumps some freshies it might be a no go.
