Looking to get my girlfriend started in the sport. We're both college students so we're definitely on a budget. If I go the XR100 route, I'm most likely going with an older (90-97) one which seem to go for 600-800. On the other hand, CRF150f seem to go for $1200-$2000.
The thing most appealing to me about the CRF150 are the disc brakes for both front and rear, but the price definitely goes way up. Is the CRF150f worth the extra $$$ for a brand new rider?
1) your physical size (both height and weight are important) 5'5" 110 lbs
2) How physical / aggressive are you ? Not aggressive
3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ????? woods/fireroad
4) Do you have any riding experience? none
5) Do you think you will race ? no
6) Are you mechanically inclined and will you be doing your own bike work? no
7) Do YOU have a preferance to a brand/ motor choice (2 or 4 stroke)? 4 stroke
8) Do you have a dealer close by your home that you might use and what brand(s) does he carry? Have plenty of dealers except Husky
9) How much ($) do you plan to spend on a bike? less than $1200. Cheaper the better..
10) Do you live in California? Yes
11) Your age? 18
12) anything else that you think would help form an opinion
Brand new rider. A big wussy
