Buying a new pit bike

Low J. · 06-04-2008, 12:56 PM

I miss my old fiddy so I'm getting a Pitster Pro X2. Been reading up on these quite a bit and seems like a better option for me than spending tons of $$$ modding another CRF-50. I can't wait.....putting the order in tomorrow.

Have you ever riden one? I use to think the same thing until my buddy talked me into jumping on one. They are a blast to ride around on and fun to stunt with.

but where can you ride them, other than pits?

Swifty · 06-04-2008, 03:11 PM

we ride ours at school parking lots, skate parks, off road, etc. Any where.

Pitsters are awesome. You should check out killerpitbikes.com. They are located out here in ft worth. Free shipping and awesome service.

Oh man, in a school parking lot around here the police would shut you down in under 5 mins I bet.

Swifty · 06-04-2008, 10:52 PM

Yeah, the cops tend to hate on us. We can usually get away with being in a closed industrial park but when we bring it to the streets they tend to get upset.

Are they street legal because sturgis is just around the corner.

Swifty · 06-04-2008, 11:21 PM

LOL about riding a pitbike around sturgis!! LMAO!

bstansbu · 06-05-2008, 12:21 AM

Looks like fun, but If I saw a grown man riding one of those things, I would prob wreck from laughing so hard.

TacoMadre · 06-05-2008, 09:13 AM

I heart my fiddy!

Swifty · 06-05-2008, 01:36 PM

you can set up a 50 to fit a grown man. you replace the handle bars, add a big bore kit, etc. Don't knock em' until you ride one!

nbdyfcnsqnc · 06-05-2008, 07:46 PM

I bet a bear wearing a fez would work well on that bike too.

Low J. · 06-08-2008, 04:13 AM

Put my order in......should be here by Friday. Can't wait!!!!!!

Low J. · 06-25-2008, 04:25 PM

Finally got it and put it together yesterday. Really nice build quality.....can't wait to ride it this weekend.

Ky Z · 06-25-2008, 06:44 PM

Looks good.

Do they basically ship it to you in a box with a little asslembly required?

Stabber · 06-25-2008, 07:11 PM

Why not just walk?

I've gotten by the past 3 years with just my two feet to guide me. It will probably put you in better shape too. Hell, we carried tires for a 1/4mile at Daytona this year
