crf230 or ttr 230

[ashermb96]

Which bike is better?

Im 15, 6 foot, 75-80kg. I was originally just going to buy a chinese pit bike for farm use and street use. But then deiced i would save up a bit more and get something a bit bigger but still be able to use similary to a pit bike.

Is the crf150 not suitable for me? any other bikes u could suggest?

cheers.

if you are just getting a bike for farm use a crf230f would be great! crf150f would have enough power for you

but what do you mean by street use mate? you cannot register a crf230!!

 

[ashermb96]

yeh nah i know, just like every now n then whip it around the streets.

you can register the ttr 230 though, and the crf150 would be my choice for a farm.

will the 150 have enough power for my size?

 

[motovert24]

yes, its not that powerful but its made for 13-15 +

i have ridden both a crf150f and a crf230f on farms and the 230 is so much better for farms. imo

 

[GooseMan]

depends on the terrain of the farm and what you want out of it. The 150 will have a heap of power, obviously the 230 will have more but on my farm its not power that counts. its the height and wheel size that is my biggest consideration. It just needs enough power to get up the steep slopes, but if it is alot more open land were you are riding then the 230 will be the funnest.

so im gonna go the 230. Any considerable differences between the ttr and crf?

 

[TomaszBurcon]

crf is way more comfortable to ride in my opinion and looks better haha

[ashermb96]

[TomaszBurcon]

just get a second hand one but a new model save a bit of cash.
