wanting to get started. What should i do?

[Debriz]

The title explains it. I'm in to mini bikes after my friend got one and I'm totally hyped. I'm just not sure where to get started. I read a few other threads and I'm looking to just start with something cheaper and add to it later on. I found a Motovox MBX10 on craigslist for a good price but it doesn't seem like something I'll really be able to customize and build on to. Tell me what you think.

Welcome to OldMiniBikes. First step...send 100 bucks to Cheezy1.....second step refer to step 1.
Realistically...the sky is the limit on modifying a Motovox.

Welcome to OldMiniBikes.
Lots of starting points.
You want old or new?
You mechanical?
Harbor Freight close by?
Remember, that is a rigid tailed bike. Beat you to death off road.

Truer words of wisdom were never said. Been there, done that, and NEVER AGAIN. Fully suspended bike ( both on or off road) is the ONLY way to go!

I am a old school fan so, not much help on a Motovox.
Pretty small is all I know.

cheezy1, Sweet looking bike there!

Debriz, save yourself, run away while you can. It's worse than a drug addiction.
