What bike to get?
I need some advice....
I'm a 36 year old somewhat out of shape guy who is about 6'4", and 240 lbs... I am not super skilled on a bike, but can remember riding trail 70s back when I was a kid. I recently got on some sort of Honda 90 or soemthing like that, that my brother got for one of his kids for Christmas. He had some trails by his house, and I had a complete blast on that bike... I did notice the lack of power and size were a little out of wack for me, especially on some of the more intense stuff... This was an actuial Motorcycle park I was riding in, so they had some serious trails, and I don't need to tell you that I was in some quite dangerous situations at some times... Lack of skill, out of shape, too small a bike... I thought I might even break the bike on some sections... I did have fun though, and am thinking about investing in a bike of my own... I don't want too much power, or anything that's too heavy, hard to start, etc... Here is where you come in... that is if you know your stuff, as I don't really have a clue... I would really appreciate some advice on what kind of bike I should consider getting... It will have to be used, powerful enough, but still light, etc... also.. Should I look into some of that body armor stuff so I don't kill myself? Besides a helmet and gloves, what should I buy? I appriciate yalls advice...
