go the crf50.... more parts availiable, very reliable
cost around $3000 for a semi mod stocker(new crf50 ,bar kit,tall seat,h/d fork springs,h/d rear spring,clutch springs, h/d pegs maybe 88cc limited bore kit and pipe more $$$ of course) the sky's the limit with these things
it's addictive

If your looking at crf50s then also look at the ttr50. I would be going for something like this: http://www.miniriders.com.au/forum/mini-classifieds/20637-fs-yamaha-ttr-50-2006-a.html

I luv the look of that bike

What state are you in? There are race meets for these bikes depending on where you live. Melbourne has a big race meet this weekend at the Xtreme day out.

i always loved 50's but its really really hard to say ..... klx110 its just to good!!

id stay away from the 70's not many parts for them .... the crf50 has soooo sooo many parts .... and you can get a few second hand parts cheap these days for them..... so thats good

yeh crf50's r heaps good but u know i really like klx110's i would go for a klx110 cause they r bigger, faster, look sweet n u can replace parts easily too!! ttr50's r good but there pars r tad harder to find, but they look cool!!!

+1 for the KLX110, only because I saw a video with some dude on one coming 2nd or 3rd against 250's on an indoor track, anyone know where I can find this vid again?

 

[nemo86]

a drz70 would be kewl but it will cost you more for parts as not many people are after them. But if you spent the time and money you could have a bike as good as a crf50 and it would be something different for everyone to admire. I would not buy a ttr50 though, the electric start on them is bullshit imo and it costs fairly big dollers to fit a kick starter to them and piss the electric off.
