Re: Month long pitbike test:HELP US !!

So we tell you what bikes to buy and you get them and test them for a month?

Get an OGM 140sx, it's $1050 shipped to your door. Nothing else will compair to it in that price range.

pretty much in a way,whatever bikes are listed most are what we will lean toward purchasing.I have on list a ssr90r so basically down to 2 bikes now.it is just something we want to do first of all to see what is out there for the $1k range instead of $1500-$2400+ some people enjoy their higher bikes but some settle for these $1k and we want to seeif they are even worth dropping the $ on them.we have someone helping us on this so it should happen.

Suggestion: you should do a trail(With hills, rocks, and other obstacles) test and and MX track test.

My ssr 125 is really good for its price! I would say test it out if you are jumping or just plain out riding fast.

Re: Month long pitbike test:HELP US !!

when we do the test,i know we will take it out to my local bmx track and rip on them.there are tons of acres of land behind my house where we will ride,more 4wheeler trails but will work fine.plan to take them off some jumps and a small backyard track.

might even add a stock 50 w/bar kit and stiffer springs.just to add to the fun and compair that as well.either way it will be all for fun and will this in no way be any type of thread for us to suggest a bike.we will just ride them like they should be list what breaks,messes up and what our likes/dislikes are.at the end i do think it will help some people on here but thats not why we are doing it we want to do this personally but just posting it up for everyone to see.

you should do a cheapee 125 pit bike also, like an apollo/orion thing to see how they actually compare... cost you the same price as a marzocchi fork.

Re: Month long pitbike test:HELP US !!

what about the medina midsized roller? I think it would blow most bikes out of the water and they just lowered the price to 888.

Re: Month long pitbike test:HELP US !!

I wouldn't test an SSR in less your test includes it setting in your garage for a month waiting for parts, working on it, and trying to get it to run....

And thats crazy boogie man! What exactly happened? Besides the obvious . lol I'm even more scared to ride mine now...
