Hey guys, I was thinking of maybe getting a 2004 CRF450 that I found a decent deal on, and I got some quick questions.... I dont have really know anything to much about bikes, and do you guys think a 450 bike would almost be to much power for trails and playing around with? and a 130-140 pound rider should still be fine jumpin it right? and one more thing, anything bad with this year of the bike? thanks a lot.

Bump!! anybody?

That is alot of bike. the 450r like to get hot in the woods.;

Is it your 1st dirtbike? my buddy sold his 450r hot a yz450f he wishes he got a 250f to start. 450 is alot of bike!

Yeah it would be my first, It would be mostly in just flat stuff but still im thinking 450 would almost be to much... but I thought that about my quad to when I first got it

55hp is alot different on 2wheels vs 4wheels.

Yeah.... this may sound funny, but do you think that If I did get a 450, It would be easy enough to trade someone for a 250?

Oh I am sure..

I had an 04 crf450 that i rode in the woods for a while its a great bike on the single tracks. I have since sold t and got akx450 which is also nice in the woods. I dont think its to much for you on the trails just take your time and get used to it. You'll be sick of a 250f in a short time
