  • im in the same situation really!!!

    im 15 and looking for my first! i've looked around on ebay n that and nothing that takes my fancy! its either a 24seven Dh3 or Iron Horse Yakuza... they're just over £1000 and i got the rest of my budget for equipment,, helmet etc!
    my friends dont understand why i spend so much on bikes... THEY'RE f***ING IDIOTS THEN :P
