Very good budget mate, wish i had that much to start!

Go to www.welshpitbikes.co.uk and have a look at the WPB 140cc

Or if you wanna go bigger the 160cc.

Welshpitbikes are great but the only downer is (my m8 bught off them) You have to put the bike together.. They dont send whole. Not a huge job though.:thumbs:

Good luck

I got a WPB140 recently & its a piece of piss to put together. Did it myself in an hour or 2. BTW, great bike for the money & plenty of scope for tuning the YX140 unit for more of the good stuff

i wish i had tht to start, can u work a clutch and tht though??? because puttin him on a 160 might kill him or scare him off the sport!!!!!????:p

if u can then id say get a 160 if u can afford it

dont get a bike with a vertical engine, i wanted one and everybody on here screamed at me :icon_lol:

i started on a kx125 as my first bike lol thats a little faster than the pit lol

as for building the wpb its easy! all you have to do is put the bars on, put the fork legs on and caliper, the front wheel the rear shock, the front number board and the rear right side number board! easy to put together as long as you have a ruff idea about bikes as the instructions are ****e to say the least!!

When you buy a new one, I think it's just putting the front wheel and handle bars on...
And going over EVERY bolt on the bike making sure its tight :thumbs:

Hey everyone new to this place but just wondered what happened to the 150 cc bikes ????????????? it seems like demon nor stomp seem to do these anymore and they both seemed to have good reviews from most people who rode them.

What happened???????
