    What bike to buy?

    Hi everyone - I just registered today and new to pit bikes. I am currently in the market to pick one up but not sure what direction to head. I have big bikes and my daughter 6 has a TTR50 and my son 2 has a PW50 and I usually run along side or chase with wife's ATV. I am looking to get a bike to ride along side of them that will be at their level and I can go on the mini track with them at the local ride areas. I don't want a Chinese bike and want a CRF50, TTR50 or KLX110 with mods. I have found some stock and modded ones on area craigs list but not sure what is best. I don't want to spend more than $1,700 now as I just picked up 2 new big bikes in the past 8mo.. Wife will kill me! All the modded 50's I found in that range are 05-07. Is it better to look for a slightly modded newer one and slowly add to it? I am also finding a lot and I mean a lot of people posting CRF50 or TTR50 or Red Baron and all turn out upon research to be Chinese knock offs. The ones I love all seem to be over $3,000 I would like to be able to hit the jumps on the track and at least do some doubles,whoops and such with out it breaking. I am 6'1 205lbs Any advice please??? Thanks all - Erik
