I would get a klx/drz 110 if I were you. You will have alot more fun if you get one. The 50's cost to much to only make kinda fast. You can put $700 into a 110 and It'll be perfect and fun to ride.

Drz/klx's are cool, they just have a HORRIBLE balance point. They are cool for trail riding or for a pit bike, but for stuntin' they are as bad as they get.

Whats cool about them is that the 110 in them in used as a scooter motor in Japan in a couple of different models. They already have a fourth gear in the transmission. All you have to do is get a new gear selector cog and you can select fourth gear. Way more top end for running through your neighborhood.

Other than that, I would either get an CRF50 if you are small or a XR80 if you are kinda taller. Both have a ton of aftermarket parts available for them. Hondas are the only bikes that have an real value, IMO.
Check out
http://www.kingracingusa.com/ for parts, or
http://www.omicronmotors.com/submenu_minibike.html for the dopest replicas, or
http://www.bbrmotorsports.com/Home/Home.aspx?ScreenSize=false for the realest of the real deal pit bikes.

BTW you get whayt you pay for. Stay a way from Tiawanese stuff. Too bad they just got rid of the mini track at odub.

CGA PFD, they got rid of the track? WHY? Most ever track around here has shut down too...

I'm a tiny dude. 5'6 140...that why I was thinking crf50

PrimeO, just seems big for a pit bike to me... I used to ride a 125...so that 110 arent THAT small to me. I am however getting a 110 stroker kit for my fiddy!

bt371, I mean I can ride a bike. I've never been on a 250 or anything but i've ridden 125's. There is no way I can ride a stock fifty around and have a ton of fun. I'm small, but those things are tiny...

I have a number for you in my phone, hopefully you didnt change it or anything. I'm interested in watching said vid. And skating if it ever warms up here. So much for global warming

well if you dont like the tiny aspect of it then dont get one ..... but it all depends on What type of riding u want to do to it

ps you spend soooo much $$ modding a pitbike yourself...u could just buy one already done and save a few hundred dollars.....

yeah enjoy the snowshredding while it last

and as soon as it warms up a little come ride at my house

No no no. I like the tiny part, I always thought a 125 was a haus, thats why I never rode a 250. You know how small I am...I'm just saying those stock are crazy small. But I've heard with a +1 fork +1 swing arm and a tall seat they feel great.

I'm not too concerned with the money since It will be spaced out over months. This will be no over night pimp my ride
