Is this a good idea?

My buddy showed me these and I was wondering what everyone thinks of them? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-1...QQcmdZViewItem
its a 4 stroke 125cc and its hella cheap. im not really looking for a real dirt bike just somethin to mess around on for fun. my only concern is that im 6' 3" and im wondering how I would fit. I could get it for like 600$ shipped.

Now THAT's a pit bike

My brother has a Pitster Pro and that thing has done fine with almost everyone that's ridden the bike. The guys have ranged from 5'8" to 6' and 150lbs-200lbs. It's a fast a$$ bike but so unstable around the track when you're in 3rd

$600 for a bike like that is kinda cheap and I'd worry about how reliable the parts are or if you could get customer support if something happens.

I'm just glad it wasn't me taking it through the whoops when the handle bars rolled forward - My brother forgot to tighten the bars down (he was wasted when he put the bike together

)

My CRF50 is dirt slow but hey it serves it's purpose - as transportation to get around the track for whoever is willing to help me out I crash
