Hello,

I am new here and am looking for your opinions on buying a bike. I am not looking into anything very expensive. I am new in bike riding.

I have found two websites please share your opinions..Also, I am tall 6'0 and 225lbs..What kind of bike should i get?

Here is my first choice....viva-motors.com/dirt-bike-250cc-perimeter-aluminium-frame.html

and my second...xxx-motorsports.com/250cc-roketa-db36a-dirt-bike-p-340.html?cPath=3_70

Thanks,
Pete

they're both crappy chinese knockoff dirtbikes, I wouldnt recommend either. The first link takes you to a page that tries to load viruses or spyware too, I wouldnt recommend going there often. why do you want a junky knockoff dirtbike?

Knocks off are Chinese copies of quality Japaneses bikes. workmanship and materials are inferior and will cause you nothing but problems.

if you want a dirtbike, buy a honda, it will last for many many years, and they have plenty of financing options if your straped for cash.

those are chinese junk bikes using knock off engine designs of japanese bikes. Get a real dirtbike(ktm,honda,kawi,zook,yami) either that or carry a metric fuckton of tools and parts along with you when you ride to fix one of those chinese hunks of crap.

If you're looking new...look at 250F's from Yamaha, KTM, Suzuki and Honda...you can't miss on any of them.

Keep in mind though, that you can get a slightly used dirtbike (lots of guys buy 'em and never use 'em) for a very low cost...something to consider for a "first" bike.
