This Is Where It Starts 6


Okay, here's the deal. We love checking out heavily-modded full-factory race bikes just as much as anyone. But for kids just starting out, and families who want to ride together, this is where it really starts. Fun, friendly bikes that allow young riders a place to build skills and a love for riding, and maybe move into full-on motocross later on.

Whether they feature an automatic or manual clutch, they've generally got low standover height, easy-to-use power, and limited suspension, but  make up for it in durability, low maintenance, and tons of fun. Isn't that what it's really all about?

Check out the models below, and visit the respective sites for specs and more detailed info. This is where it starts.
