    I have the stomp kzr 140 pitbike. Mad little thing. Friend rallied around a farm on it a week or two ago and said it did it no bother. They are light as feck, funny doing a bunny hop on a fecking motorbike lol.

    You'd be better off with an XR125 or similar. Better build than a Pitbike and bigger wheels which makes offroading easier.

    i belive they are more expensive,plus my mum and daad think a pit bike looks like a toy witch is the reason im aloud get a "motor bike" my mum and dad hate motorbikes ,i suggested getting a motor bike instead on a first car and they told me so many awful stories bout fellas breaking there necks and stuff :L
    so yeah there fairly dry fields aswell so yeah,thanks any way :-D

    Stick to main name brands, you cant go too far wrong, plus will hold value when selling on.
