Tell him to think about looking at a KR150 too. They're cool lil bikes!

The RG's are better for a larger person. KR's are a bit smaller.

With the early model KR's if you can find an R spec one with the cast wheels they are better than the spoke wheel version.

KR's are a lot cheaper to maintain.

Late model KR's are nice & not too tiny but probably a bit expensive for a racebike.

I'll look into putting them on trademe once my 400 is going and I don't have to rely on the running one to get me to school. The money is most likely going to be fed into paying off my loan rather than a dirtbike :(

Talking to the fullas who race streetstock 150's down here, the RG's are a lot better.

Down here some of the reason RG's are used is that they are better (opinion) and some of the reason is because there is a lot of knowledge around for them because everyone else has them. It helps make for closer racing too
