hi, welcome to Miniriders,

what brand is it, and what motor does it use?
 
Looks like it has a yx150 or 160 in it.

well, 3 grand is alot of money.. the engine is worth $600 so what are you really paying for?
i would recommend a http://www.pitsterpro.com.au/prod13.htm and then put some motard tyres on it if need be..

but if you are not riding where you should be then no one wants you on a pitbike because you make us look bad.. why dont you just go legal? you could buy somthing on the road for less than 3g
 
I don't think I'd even ride it, I'd probably end up using it as decoration who knows.

I wouldn't ride it where I shouldn't be, I'm not like that :)

Also, I've never liked dirt bikes I don't know why

It looks pretty good quality but 3k is alot of cash, if its just for decoration you could buy a 2stroke 49cc pocket bike for well under a grand painted up to look just as good
 
Who is selling it mate, $3000 is a bit of cash but if you have the coin and think it is worth it then go for it.
 
Yeah pretty cheap but they only look fast, just a slightly sportier version of a scooter. Mate got one for his missus for 3200 on road, good value and its a honda so it'll run forever
 
If you want opinions then here's mine:

3k is alot of money. By the looks you aren't really get a whole lot of moneys worth.

If it's for decoration get a canvas printed of a 50k bike for a 100 bucks.

As far as investment goes, the moment you buy it the value will go down considerably, if you ever re-sell it you will make a loss (pretty obvious lol)
 
WHAT THE HELL IS 2/4 valve meant to mean LOL

there will be little enjoyment that can be had out of it unless you are racing it with mates..

3g i would not even pay 300 because i can buy a atomik 50 new for 250 and have more fun...
 
you might be right, i gotta find out why it's so expensive, they have other pocket bikes for 13k too :/

Hi Jake,
What do you expect to get for $3k?

yeah, that was very helpful, answering a question with another question..
