Heās 31 and 6ā8ā, yeah I mentioned ADVs to him. He had a challenge on the 125 cc Honda in the class. LOLRon, what's you son's age, and how tall?
Ride safe, Ted
Looked at WOW. They are turning into a dealer and with the current market, theyāre kinda pricey.And budget!
btw... Wow Motorcycles in Marietta has a big selection of used, though they want $$$
Honda? Iād entertain an early 80ās machine. What does it need?I should sell my FT500 Ascot, but it's old and a project bike. It is easy to ride though.
Thanks.I'm sure this might not be what your looking for but it caught my attention because of the condition it looks to be in.

Two good ideas. A ninja from that era is technology Iām familiar with. ThanksI'd look for a Ninja 500. Easy maintenance, bullet proof engine. Another option is a KLR.
Yep, lots of those 250ās around. ThanksProbably find a CBR250 or even 300 for that amount. I have Heli-bars for that as well - bonus!
Thanks. My beginner is a tall and fairly heavy guy so itās hard to find something that fits relatively well. Thanks again.I just picked up a 2014 Ninja 300 (EX300) for a buddy who I will be training out here in Cali for $1500. It will need a chain and a pair of sprockets, but I knew that from the original owner prior to buying it. But that bike had no issue pulling my 300 lb large a$$ on the ride across town to take it to his house. It is light and powerful enough for a beginner, but manageable. So don't stray from the 250 - 300 range either. The MSF (I'm a former instructor) uses 250's in their courses for a reason.
Yep, he ate well growing up. LOL Iām sort of thinking the same way. I went and looked at a 250 and itās too small for me.That's a pretty good size boy,.. I'd recommend a
"Midweight" ....I'm still stuck in the 80s. I wish I still had my 82 700 Nighthawk...80HP, Shaft drive, hydraulic lifters... .... I've owned both the 250 Ninja and 250 Rebel . the Rebel was for Patty. At 4'11" and 110 lbs it worked well ...I rode the Ninja quiet a bit, but to be fun( for me) I had to ride it "hard". No torque. It truly did prove out the old adage " more fun to ride a slow bike fast then a fast bike slow.". Just got rid of the Ninja last spring.
Newer bikes have a lot going for them, fuel injection, tire sizes....brakes and more HP per CC...
