Bike advice

[roostmaster]

Hi all,

Im a newby and a dad thats looking at getting my 3 boys bikes for xmas so Im here asking those in the know.

Basically im after good quality bikes that i wont have to repair all the time. ( I have 3 CR500's that take up enough of my time)

Electric start would be preffered so they dont need me to start them

Im after 2 bikes the same, over 110cc & about the size of a ktm / kx 65 size, manual would be ok.

The other bike around the size of a ktm50sx (slightly bigger than a crf50) and semi auto would be preffered but not essential.

Any advice would be very much appreciated

Sup roost. A klx110 is about the same hight as a ktm50 and they are good bikes, i wouldn't worry about your son kicking it over, he'll get use to it quick. For the 2 bigger bikes a crf150r would be awsem. how old are your boys?

are you after pit bikes (pitster pro, motovert, dhz etc) or hondas, kwakas etc?

Hey guys,
My boys are 7, 9 & 10, the youngest has a crf50 which has been a hand me down, we just sold a crf150 because it was to big for the older boys, we have an old 150 pit bike that's pretty much expired, also have a ktm 50 sx that isn't the most trail / everyday friendly bike.

To be honest I have 3 cr500's & am about to get a new ktm 500 exc so I can't really afford to buy new jap bikes for the kids as much as I'd love to.
I'm in Darwin nt australia and there isn't any pit bike shops here so I'm kinda hesitant to buy a Chinese pit bike without advice.
What's a good brand and which ones do I avoid?
I've got a 20 acre block and the boys ride heaps and kinda hard, so I want to get value for $

Roost go to Mini Bikes | Pitbikes | Dirt Bike Parts & Accessories | DHZ Mini Moto | Buy Online Australia and look at their pit bikes. They offer free shipping on most of there bikes aswell. Descent one can go from 900 to 1400. they be the sizes you're after.

yeah go to that website and check out their bikes, if I were you id go for two DHZ dpro 140's or outlaw 160's for extra power as the bigger bikes.
