Looking for a dirt bike

[Backwoods]

I had a CRF 150 R several years ago. It had some suspension work and a full exhaust it was a lot of fun

I had several XR200R's through the years which is the grandfather to the 230. They are still bulletproof. I had a CRF150R for my boys and it was a blast, but not what I would recommend for what you are looking for. I would suggest looking at the CRF230L as well as the F. If you can find one close in price it would let you get experience on the road as well, or at least get between trails legally. I teach ATV safety at a Honda facility here in Ohio and they also have dirt bike classes for beginners and use the CRF230F and CRF150F bikes to teach people how to use a clutch. They hold up to the abuse very well. Around here used hondas are hard to find and more expensive than the Yamahas though.
Yamaha built that bike as a direct competitor to the Honda so I don't think either would be a bad choice if the condition is right.

You will get lots of enjoyment on that bike especially with the kids. That old design engine is bulletproof.
If you ever do upgrade you’ll get your money back, that’s probably one of if not the best selling bikes out there. It’s really awesome what you’re doing. Enjoy and congratulations!

Define... crash?

Define... crash?

Anything resulting in something other than bike tire touching the ground while riding. AKA...not keeping the rubber side down/shiny side up.

In other words, the same thing you do in the pioneer.

So today was essentially my first day on a dirtbike.. Just do’n some wheelies in the yard after a pretty successful day of riding.

Whiskey throttle hurts!!


I heard a pop and thought I broke a rib. After I quit laughing and could breath again it’s not broke but something defiantly popped. Lol.. so after that spill... my helmet needs to hurry up and get here! The neighbors are looking at me funny riding a dirtbike with my old football helmet!
