a street legal dirtbike is like a solar-powered flashlight, it has no use, because theyre so damn heavy that you might as well ride a quad... as for me? i like dirtbikes more than quads night and day. Sure quads are fun, but i only ride mine when my bike is broken down, so thats why im getting a 400ex, so i can still have a backup quad, but one that actually fits me, and i TOO am getting a 250, or maybe just a new 125, and i might be racing beginner in a month or 2 i dont know yet
