heh im a noob, but u can find some good deals on ebay if u just be patient and look around for like a month or so. i got an 06 kfx 400 for 3 grand, and it has a bunch of extras with it like racing pipes n stuff.

only downside is shipping, have to find something with in a few states... i think i paid like 300 for shipping, but even with that i got a good deal

The 400 class is a good place to start.....Suzuki Z400 or Honda 400EX. Both are great handling, solid reliable machines. Should be able to find a used on for a reasonable price.
