I am almost 15 years old and i want to buy a dirt bike. I have rode a dirt bike accouple times and i am alright, i know the basics. I want a dirt bike that will suit me. My dad wants a dirt bike for himself too. We have no clue what kind of bikes to buy. My dad has rode some dirt bikes before but still a beginner. I am 5'7 115 pounds but growning rapidly and my dad is around 5'8 and 190 pounds. Please help us. Thank!!!


Answer
im 16 130 pounds i ride a kx 250. lots of power. if ur a beginner i would buy a rm 125,kx 125,yz 125. 2 stroke. or if you want a little smaller buy a ttr 125 four stroke. easy to ride somewhat powerfull. less maintence. your dad. same thing 125 2 stroke or if he has experience he should get a 250 2 stroke. buy riding boots, helmet and chest protector. trust me you shouldnt ride without it ive learned from experience = broken collar bone. brused shoulders, bruised ribs, broken ankles, shatterd my shin.broken toes. just do yourself a favor so you will be out riding year around get some equipment.

What percentage of parents say no to getting a motorcycle?

Also, if you are a parent would you let you son/daughter get a motorcycle? If so/not why?
Your son/daughter has agreed to the terms below when asking:
1. They will pay for their own insurance with money they earned in full at the beginning of each year.
2. They will buy every motorcycle they ever own.
3. They will pay for their motorcycle enforcement on their license.
4. They will pay for and take the motorcycle safety course (msf).
5. They will learn to fully maintain their motorcycle themselves.
6. They will wear and pay for the following gear:
Full composite jacket with shoulder and elbow protectors built in. $500
Gloves. $100
Full face helmet. $500
Closed toed boots. $100
*They will eventually get safety pants for long highway trips (when not on long highway trips will wear jeans.)
7. Will pay for monthly service and installation of a motorcycle anti theft and recovery system.
8. Their motorcycle will be equipped with anti lock brakes (ABS) and a steering damper.
Trust me, if I say I will do it I will do it. Every one of those listed statements will be done within the first week of me getting a motorcycle.



Answer
My parents (both dead now) both told me no. I started asking when i was 9, but I kept asking. Then ended up caving in and I ended up getting a bike when I was 12. I went riding just about every weekend and then after a few years, started going out riding with my dad. Turns out my dad learned to ride a motorcycle when he was over seas in WWII.

Learning to maintain a motorcycle is not as easy as it sounds, unless it is a 2-stroke dirt bike. YouTube and a shop manual help a lot, but if it was that easy, everyone would do it.

Now I'm a dad of three. All of us ride including my wife. It is fun, we all wear protective gear and it is nice to get out into the country away from all of the heavy traffic, noise and electricity.

Remember you can purchase used riding gear. I have picked up gloves, shoulder pads with chest protectors and racing boots at yard sales, flea markets, Ebay and Craigslist.

If they don't want you to get a bike and you are living in their household, you are forced to listen to them. If you want a bike that bad and they are totally against it, you will have to move out.

So, what percentage of parents say No to their children owning motorcycles? Have no idea, but I would guess that they are parents that do not ride themselves.

I am a parent and would I let my children ride motorcycles? Absolutely, I bought them their bikes.
