Children's motocross, something not to forget

When to put a child on a motorbike? Isn't it too early? Isn't it too dangerous? How much does it actually cost? There are a lot of questions that come to mind for parents when their child says they want a motorbike. If a parent is so-called infatuated with motocross, they don't have to answer many questions, that's clear. But what about those who have no knowledge of motocross and their child wants a motorbike. So what? It is important to realize that motocross is quite expensive. So if we overcome the previous questions, we can accept the suggestion that we put our child on motocross.

When can a child ride a motocross bike? Easily as early as three or four years old, there are very small bikes, made by Yamaha, they are little ones, small bikes with a capacity of 50 cc are suitable for children aged 5 to 6.

Just a motorbike is not enough, the shopping continues, protective elements such as a children's motocross helmet are essential. A motocross helmet must be liked by the little pilot, it must fit well on the head, it must not be loose, it must not be pressing, in essence it must be "perfect". We will stop a little to see what a motocross helmet looks like. The helmet consists of a shell, which is beautifully colored on the outside, the inner part is what protects the head, what must meet safety conditions - homologation, the shell of children's helmets only has one size. Another part of the helmet is a removable padding, which is hypoallergenic and can be washed or replaced, and the last part is the visor. The padding is what determines the size of the helmet, so we don't destroy the helmet, so we replace the padding with a larger one and the helmet continues to serve. The helmet mainly serves a safety function, so minor scratches are okay, we can replace a broken visor, but cracks are a problem, they mean that the motocross helmet is no longer safe.

If you don't know what to do as a parent, visit specialized motocross store, preferably in person with a small pilot, online is not the best solution. Experienced trainers at motocross schools will definitely advise you on how to properly train and ride a motorcycle.
