my little brother has never had a big birthday present, and he is turning 13. he loves dirt bikes and currently rides my boyfriends pit bikes around when we go out to the track or riding at a parking lot. for his birthday this year i want to get him started with his gear and hopefully get him to start saving for a bigger bike so that he can learn how to ride. i would love a list of things that could help me get started. thank you!

Answer
There is a lot of stuff to dirt biking but some basics for gear that you wanted to get him would be
helmet
goggles
chest protector
gloves
jersey
pants
and boots
Thats the basic saftey equipment. This stuff can be pretty expensive and start to add up. But that stuff will make him feel like he is a pro.

Is dirt bike racing only for younger kids or can people in their 20's start in it?

skye

I know someone who always wanted to race dirt bikes, but never got the chance. He's in his 20's now, but is that too old to get started in the sport?

Answer
NO,their are 60 yr oldes that do their first race in the 450 class. It is always better so start when your young but it depends on your skill. If its his first time riding a bike and has no skill i would suggest not racing, all he would do is get hurt and suck.
