Trying to get a dirt bike sorted for some training. Had a go on a new RMZ450 from TSS Redbaron and loved it so have to find a way to get onto a dirt bike again....
Looking for a 450 with a blown engine for around 1000-1500. That about what they have been going for on Trade Me if you can find them.
I can build the engine, id have to rebuild any S/H bike I purchased so might as well buy one thats broken for cheap!
So if you have something or know of something laying around for cheap let me know :scooter:

Im riding support class so shouldnt be too bad....
Got to figure out what helmet to use, has to be either the old Arai MX Pro or the Bell Moto 5 Kiedrowski rep haha
The 04 would have been real nice, its still got a modern feel
