Was a pretty good article until the obligatory plug for having a shop inspection performed, as well as the gimicky warranty on pre-owned bikes.

legit tips for sure, especially for those who dont have any bike experience! thx MOMMA!




Thank you! I learned tonnes doing this article with Justin. I recently purchased a bike for my kids. A 2004 CRF 230F (they are helping to pay it off) we went through each step with them, inspecting our potential bike. It was a great learning experience for sure.
Sleds are wayyyyyy more of a comfort zone for me, so this whole bike thing has me intrigued.

It is a good bike and its ALWAYS better to know what ones riding etc for preventative maintenance :)
