Buying my first dirt bike?



I went to a motorcycle / offroad / speed boat dealership. I was looking at the dirt bike. I am 5'10 or 5'11 weighing in at 150-160 pounds (might lose weight during football season).

Now I want a dirt bike to ride around a forrest preserve next to my house and just to ride around, not racing or to do jumps / tricks with.

The sales man recommended the CRF150F to me and said for my body it will fit me like a glove. I sat on it, felt pretty good. Do you guys recommend that bike for me?

The dealer said they are reliable and it would cost me about $4,000 with tax. Now as a first bike should I buy it new, or used. Should I asked for used bikes and would other stores sell used or purely new.

ok first of all you dont need that big of a bike, just get a 2 stroke.
im 140lbs and i ride a kx80...I dont race it, i just do exactly what youre going to do.
2 strokes are WAY funner, id say...and less temperamental if you ask me.
I recommend a kx 125 or yz 125
if you want to stick with hondas thats fine but my kawasaki is a really souped up 80 and itll kill a 125 4 stroke.
and youll save some money getting a smaller bike.
test some bikes out first.
if you have more questions you can email me
