Gday guys,
Quick background on myself.
I'm 19, about 65kgs, 5ft10 and used to ride all the time up until I sold my YZ85, YZ125 and ebay pitbike a couple years back. But my love for dirtbikes keeps calling, so considering I can't afford to buy the latest KTM 500EXC at the moment, I've decided I'm buying another mini, but a proper one this time.
After doing days of research and considering all the factors, I've decided to go with a Motovert.
I was originally looking at an 09' Motovert Pro 125cc daytona with elka rear shock and generic adjustable forks for $1750, but was told from the shop that the new 2012 Motovert Pro 160cc for $2000 s#!ts all over the 09' model.
So only having a few days knowledge on mini bikes, I'm a bit up in the air because from what I have read, daytonas are the way to go for engines and an elka shock is top end too, yet the parts on the 2012 are just generic.
I need the help of the experts on this one to help me pick which bike would be the better buy.
Ideally I would like to spend less than $2000. But if I have to spend two or a bit more, I can.
Any help is appreciated, cheers!
