Same here, my kid will be racing early.... that is when i have a kid.... in 10 years or so..... or never.

My parents, on the other hand..... will shoot me when i get around to bringing the baby home. And I'm 20.....

Dude, that is sooooooo cool. My old man got me on a used Suzuki DS80 when I around 5 yo. It was so much fun. He's gonna have a blast.

Great selection for first bike. I have a PW 50 my daughter started on and outgrew. She is on a 90 now. The 50 is for sale, including the training wheels and a pair of boots if anyone else is looking for a starter bike...

So I have this thing going as slow as it can and he still managed to flip it. He was in full gear and got up from under it and started to cry and I asked if he was Ok? He said yes I just want to get on and ride. I was like yes please so back on and off we went. DRESS FOR THE CRASH NOT THE RIDE! He was unscratched. Helmet has a little rub but that beats him having a rub.

Already done the rides on back and he was great. Now that I am off running beside him he is so into who is watching he dont realize the speed increasing and loses focus on me saying let off, let off!! Next thing I know he takes a hard left and high sided with training wheels. I am just glad that the $185.00 worth of riding gear he had on allowed him to get up and want to get back on. I ordered a tether kill switch that I am going to mount on the rear of the bike and put like one of those dog leashes that extends so I can just pull it and shut him off if he freezes on the gas again.
