buy a real one

a used 125 2 stroke will kick its 250 r stock china ass and will last longer.

I know a lot of people with the little pocket bikes and once they brake there screwed because they cant get parts for them. If you are buying somthing to beat on(|thats what a dirt bike is for) then get a real one

my neighbor got this one exactly,

http://cgi.ebay.ca/125CC-OFF-ROAD-DI...QQcmdZViewItem

we flipped it the first day, and the parts from honda's fit on them.

but remeber break in the engine properly, change the oil frequently, and tighten every single bolt on the bike, beside that these bike are great, especially for a starter bike your not afraid to take it of jumps and ---- becuase it didnt cost you $8000. and there are lifan engines all over ebay for replacement, for a first bike i would definatly pick one of these up.

my neighbor paid $240 plus shipping. so for around $650 CND we have a 4 speed bike that can go up to 90 km/h for that price you cant go wrong.

Only one guy with any actual experience on them?

Im probably gonna get the 250 4 stroke, there about $900

Anyone know of any forums for them?

What would be breaking on them? Aluminum frame?

2 people, one right above you, but since your mind is already made up about buying one of those cheap piles of ----, you didn't even see his post. :1 Good luck. You're going to need it. :3

I dont think the guy above him really actually has one though.... just wanted to act cool lol, seriously, doesnt have one though

Kamil has a 125, wouldnt a 250 be a lot different? Bigger?

Re: DIRTBIKERS! Why Are These So Cheap?
 
Well if they're anything like those mini-bikes, you will get one ride out of it and just about everything on it will be broken or on it's way to being broken. My buddy thought he was going to make billions selling those things and ended up losing his ass because they were so shitty. He still has a few of them in his garage that were too fucked up to sell. :1
