Hey! I am a 14 year old boy who has dreamed of motocross since I was 6 years old.
No one in the family has driven or is driving. Only my brother and I are interested in motoring and he could help me a bit with the mech as he knows more than me!
Is it available? Do you learn along the way or are you in need to know everything?
How much would it cost in about a month if you drive 3-4 times a month and about 2 hours at a time? If you skimp on clothes (not with protection of course), how much will it be?
How much will it be for spare parts each month?
I think I could go back to enduro school to learn the basics so it's not quiet ride in the start
The bike I thought is a Ktm SX 85. Any thoughts on it? Any good year model or any other bike?
(I am about 161 cm and weigh about 40 kg)
(Sorry if my english was bad, not my real language)
Grateful for answers!

You're 14, at that age you're supposed to ride a 125.
It will last until you're 18, you'll learn how to properly ride a bike and after that you will be able to ride whichever bike you want.
Get an 85 then after your pushing the bike harder then its pushing you, sell it and get a 125. Getting experience on a bike is more important then getting a bike you won't be comfortable on. CC's might suit your age group but, not your riding ability at this point.
Have fun learning. Don't think a smaller bike will hold you back either. Its a stepping stone and learning tool to help you become comfortable and a better rider.
