That's cool.

I bought a Yamaha 50 dirt bike that has a shaft drive, one speed and throttle stop. All of my first three learned to ride on it before graduating to Honda XR 80/100's. Then onto 2 stroke MX 65cc-80cc-125cc bikes.

They had to follow me on a 500MX bike and dodge my roost... toughens the little crittens up a bit.

They have to buy their own street bikes if they want, and if they do then they know how to ride before swinging a leg over one...
