    Default buying a crappy wee bike

    hi my wife has started 2 get upset that im either out on my bike or in the garage fixing it more than im with her. So has decided she wants to try motocross, she got her college bursary and i looked on ebay at those little 125 4stroke pit bikes( 125cc pit bike dirt bike 4speed with clutch kick start on eBay, also 50cc, Pocket Bikes, Scooters, Sporting Goods (end time 15-Mar-08 15:14:52 GMT) ) would this be a good idea i kind of know for a fact she wont enjoy it (bad experiance on a mini moto) and if she doesnt i get a little piece of &$£% to razz about on for fun lol and if she does i can get her something better in the future.

    If momma ain't happy, nobody's happy.
    I'd rather you offend me with the truth than appease me with a lie.

    lol it was her experiance with the mini moto that put her off! She kinda went into a kind of tank slapper and just landed chin 1st embedding her ring into her finger as she went down, it looked sore lol, but it wud be great if she liked it though.

    Ive bought the bike that was in the auction now, $2500 is a bit to expensive i paid £295 ($about $600) for it and its a 2008, it is only for my wife to try out motocross, which she does so we will keep this till it dies then buy her a proper bike
