My parents just got a house in plam springa and we wnated to start dirt biking. I was wondering what would be a good used dirt bike for me. I was thinking like a 125 or 250 but i really dont know. I am 16 and 5'9 so..

 

this is my field here..i may not no **** about audis (yet)...but i can definitely help you with bike info....what kind of riding do you want to do? motorcross, trails, both?

 

If it's just general mess about I'd go for a second hand 125 motocross, they're light and you can chuck them about easily but still very fast.

 

depends how old u r. if ur younger prob 125 for gettin started off. If ur older u can easliy adjust to the 250

 

im 16 and i want it for mostly trails. I dont know where u guys are from but i would be riding in the palm springs area. There are some trails right off the I-10. But i want it to be pretty fast and also to be able to catch so air on it. Not huge air like on tv but some air like 5 ft mb. I would liek it to be around $1,250 so what do u think i could get or should i be looking to spend more than that. I have just dont really want to use it.

 

Hold on I'm confused correct me if I am wrong but wern't you just looking to buy a S4 too ? if so how are you affording to do both at 16 unless we are talking daddy's money here

 

of course he is. unless this guy was working since he was 10, there's no way he can have over 10k for an audi.
i have a VERY good job, been working my *** off since i was 14, and i STILL barely have 10K to buy a car.

 

ur r correct the dirt bike will be for the entire family.My dad, my brother and i will all be getting them so yes my dad will be paying for this. He doesn't want to have to spend alot on it though. Like around 1500 for each of the bikes. I will be buying the S4 or SS when i have the money, I am getting a job soon and thats why i said i will be purchaisng in around 6 months if i decide on the S4 or if a SS (b/c cheaper)will be sooner.

 

my car si worth around 13,500 so i would be looking for $4500 cause i found a few for around 18000 even one for 16 something and it was only 60K miles on it. Sweet deal if only i had teh money i would eb buying it today.

 

apg, you're probably going to want to spend a little more than that on a good bike...their value doesn't depreciate like cars...for mostly trail riding, do not get two-strokes...two-stroke bikes are strictly for motocross, trust me. the good four-strokes just started getting made a few years ago ('00 yamaha was the first good one i believe)...as far as engine size...for 4-strokes, double the displacement for the same amount of power as a 2-stroke (a four-stroke 250 is equivalent to a 2-stroke 125)...i would def go with a 250 four stroke for your size (and i'm assuming you don't have much experience with dirtbikes)...honda XRs are really good trail bikes, not so great for jumps...the newer (more expensive) yamaha YZ250F and honda CR250F are the best of both worlds (motocross and trails)
