PommyPaul Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 You looking at getting into abit of riding then eddie? i've been going to the motocross/trail parks for the last few weeks... theres an awesome place near kenilworth which has tracks for everyone from a 5 year old on a peewee bike right upto the freestyle motocross guys doing the 100ft jumps!!! With regards to the cheap chinese bikes, i've not had any experience of them but i can ask on one of the aussie dirt bike forums i go on if you like?

calNgary Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 They break really easy Eddie, a few kids around here have had them. You would be better spending a tad more on a second hand genuine one like Zaks KLX, that thing is ridden and abused by him and never puts a beat wrong.(hope i havnt just jinxed it,lol), watch Ebay and Trading post to score a bargain.

Eera Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them. A second hand 80cc costs nothing from Suzuki or Honda (don't know how big you're talking about when you're referring to the little fellow, sorry). At least you have a decent dealer network and proven performance with them. If he's a little bigger than that I'm a massive fan of the DR-Z 250, predictable but can climb anything in 2nd gear. On a slightly different note, it's just become legal for learners to ride 2-stoke 300cc bikes in QLD. I can see disaster happening soon there.
