go with a 2stroke dirtbike like a cr125.....

dont get a little pubescent bike; you'll be sorry. they break after a year or two cause they aint made for adults.

plus you can do REAL tricks with a 125, SPEED, POWER, and run from the cops if you gotta for playing on a public road.

hell i'd buy a riva razz and stunt that before i'd buy a fiddy, but go with what you want not the "current fad"...

if you want to stunt it, do not take this advice. A 2 stroke sucks for stunting. You can not beat a 4stroke Honda. I have a 1985 XR100 that I've owned for about 12 years and beat the hell out of it and have NEVER had a problem. Same thing goes for my 98 Z50, and my double R. You just can't break 4 stroke Hondas. Go with the 2004 Honda CRF50. You won't regret it.

ya that guy above is smoking crack....2 stroke are no good...every 2 stroke ive owned has had many problems with needing the top end replaced ....4 strokes are slow and torquey...thats what you need for stunting...the reason i choose a xr100 is because it has a clutch and is bigger then the 50....50s seem fun..but i wanted something that can give me skill towards street bikes with the clutch brake control etc...

2 strokes are good for stunting if you got skillz...lol. not sayin' i do, but i slow walk/ 12 my cr250, do coasters like 50-100 feet, nose wheelie over 100 feet and im workin on circles. they are hard to stunt at first but thats the fun part. but, id have to say fiddys can be way more fun. i ride my fiddy everywhere and take it to all the stuntscomps. and partys i go to in the trunk of my car. they are

i have a 426 yamaha and that thing is sick. the wheelies i can hang on it are pretty cool, not as good as most on this site but still not bad for only having the bike for about 2 weeks. i love dirt bikes but it all comes done to what you want to spend your money on. 50 are cool because they are small and fun to ride, dirt bikes are cool because you can get some sick air with them as well as pull wheelies and if you get bored you can go trailing riding or go to a local mx track. Personal Preference is definitely a issue, if it were i would get a 04 Honda CRF450
