I'm a 16 year old with a budget of $1800 for my first motorcycle. I am only interested in streetbikes, no cruisers/standard bikes for me. The only bikes I find in my price range are on Craigslist. I'm interested in either the gs500f or an sv650. Does anyone know of a website that has ads for mainly street bikes at a low cost?


Answer
Local Craigslist in Madison, Wi has a cm400 Honda with bags and Vetter fairing, new tires for $1600.00-- guy bought it for wife who doesn't want to ride now and he has 3 other cycles -SO, sell the little Honda and wife can either stay home or pack on back. I have same basic cycle used for trainer--and new student lined up for the season so little putt will be back on road soon. Cycle Salvage yard has a 550 Suzi for $1200.00- small shield and a tailtrunk big enough for helmet and some extra space, new tires. Helpful to know where you're located.

Is it too late for me to start riding dirtbikes or motocross?

I'm a 17 year old girl, and I've recently sparked interest in motocross and would like to give it a shot myself. I was wondering if it was too late for me to start, or how to even get started. I was looking at bikes and I really like the Yamaha YZ250F, would that be a good bike to start with? I would like to stick with Yamaha though. Thanks for your help! :)


Answer
I'm 13 and I've been riding since I was 2. I in fact ride a YZ250f most of the time. It's a very good bike to start with. As long as the bike is in good condition and everything is in proper order, you should have a blast!

I've ridden bikes of all sizes up to a 500cc, and I have to say that I prefer the 250cc over the larger bikes. It's lightweight, easy to maneuver, and I feel one with the bike, knowing exactly how it will behave over the terrain, versus the 500's where I feel like I'm just there for the ride. Plus, because the suspension is tuned to my weight, and there are a few engine upgrades, I can out race adults on 350's and 500's. It's not so much me as it is the bike. It's truly an amazing bike when you tune it correctly.

It's never too late to start riding. A 60 year old could still have a great time even if he/she hasn't ridden very much.

Regardless of what bike you ride, gear is the most important part. If you don't already have a full set of gear, get one. That includes: helmet, chest protector, elbow pads, pants, jersey, knee pads, boots, socks, goggles, and you should get a neck brace too, even though I don't really use one. The cost of all of that is going to be quite a bit, about $300-$800 depending on what quality gear your buy.

What's important after that, is that either YOU or your dad, ect, knows how to take care of motorcycles. If you don't take very good care of your bikes, they will break. They need cleaning, lubricating, tuning, ect. You will not be able to afford to have a bike if you have to take it somewhere every time something is wrong with it, because that's probably going to be often.

I'll say this again, the YZ250f is a very good bike. I race mine all the time in the desert, and it's one of my best friends. I just need to buy and install a desert tank for it so I don't have to worry as much about fuel. The stock tank is pretty small because it's designed for motocross.

However, if you're going to be riding tracks and not going on 100 miles rides through deserts, you could keep a lot of the stock parts on the bike, like the tank. I could give you a lot more advice on parts that I recommend for the bike, but I don't know if you're going to be racing tracks of desert. So I'll just leave it here.

My YZ was purchased from our neighbors for $2000, but it needed a new piston. I recommend you buy the bike used. You'll save a LOT of money that way. On craigslist, they are running $1500 to $3500 right now. I wish you luck! :3
