with $1500 I'd get a lifan 150 for about $650, DNM rear shock about $180, fastace as02's $250 from SAGAONE, and spend the rest of little things like CNC throttle, tires, levers, ti-tensil bolts, and blah blah just do the bike up and it'll be a thousand times better that a 150XR........ maybe get SAGAONE's frame too the pitpro frames aren't that strong
