you should get a 125 man, if ya get a fast 50 you would have heaps of fun but some time down the line you will probably get a bit bored with them as you cant do things on them , like you can with the 125, this is just my thoughts.

5th July 2004, 06:16 PM
depends if u have ridin one because if you cant handle it then you wont be able to get good until ur a bit older/ expieranced. thats why id go 126 from a 85

OK here is hgow I put it.
Fast 50cc: 1. A shit load of fun.
2. Not as much money.
3. They are good if you live in a surburb.
4. Jumps are eaiser to build because the bike is smaller, and a fome pit wont cost as much.
125cc: 1. Not good if you live in the surburb, good if your parets are willing to take you places and if you have a licencs.
2. You can go so much bigger on a 125cc.
3.If you want to go on trails.
This is how you know what you want..... If you see someone on a 50cc and you are going huge on your 125cc are you gonna go orh sick. And if you are in the corner of your street hitting a ramp on your fast 50cc and a 125cc goes hammering past are you gonna want that. lol? I got my cr125 at 14.

5th July 2004, 10:16 PM

6th July 2004, 01:53 PM
if i were you i would get a125 over the 50, cause i am almost sure (atleast in my case) that you would regret the 50 cause its more of a toy the an actual dirt bike.
and about how old for a 125 i had one when i was 13, actually got it about a month before my 13th b day.
[TOPGEAR]
6th July 2004, 02:15 PM
**** 50's. i would never get one as my only bike. i would get one if i had another bigger bike aswell. but just having a 50 would be shit. u wouldnt be able to go out riding with friends

way 2 go bro get a 125 first so u can go ridin and stuff and then if your still keen on gettin a 50 when u get the cash then buy one.. if i was u i would let 1 of your friends buy the 50s first and have a go of it for a while then decide whether u still want one, u will neva get sic of a 125 but (unless u go 250 later on)

6th October 2004, 09:24 PM
get a 250 and put like a 15 tooth front sprocket on it
twothreesix
8th October 2004, 06:40 PM
if u get a 50 now, then u will have to step up 2 a 125 later, which wil set u bak a few years before you get a 250, it depends how long u wanna wait before u get the 250 u want
thumpstar_prime
14th October 2004, 12:50 PM
