I Want To Start A Dirt Bike And Atv Racing Track!?

What are all the requirments to keep myself from being sued? Riders and racers will be able to practice and compete for prize money on this track. It will be a business racing track. I need some strong advice!

Contact your local governing body of motorcycle sport in whatever country you are in for the correct information. In America that would be the AMA and in Australia MA.

Why Did The Stop Making Kawasaki 125 Dirt Bike?

Question 2. did they only stop it for other countries or the us to?
Dirt bikes


Pressure from world bodies over noise pollution has stopped production on a couple of the well known brands of 125cc including Kawasaki and Honda. Popularity to race the 125cc has also been down as they quite often have to race against the 4 stroke 250cc and they usually get beaten (of course there is exception to that depending upon the rider onboard).
Part of the reason that honda developed the 150cc was to replace the 2 stroke 85cc although I don't know if it has been as successful as they would have hoped as the idea was for them to race against the 85cc and in America they don't allow that as they race in their own class. Australia has them racing against the 85cc.

What Is A Good Dirt Bike For A 13 Year Old?

I have some enduro experience and im about ready to get a bigger engine than my XR100R. any advice?
Dirt bikes


Perhaps add a few more details about your height as that makes a difference as at 13 there is a great difference in how tall people are.

Just go along to a dealership and have a sit on a few different bikes to judge how big a bike you can manage. The crf150r is a really great bike and you would be able to race that for a couple more years. If you are really tall you could look at a 4 stroke 250cc.

Do Power Tips For Dirt Bikes Really Work?

I want get more torque out of my ttr 230 dirt bike… i was looking online and saw a power tip that replaces the old exhaus tip… it says it increases air flow and torgue… is this true?
Dirt bikes


It does help but you get like mabye 0.5-2 hp you wont notice unless you race professionally…. if you do all the mods, cam, carb, bore kit, head work, timing advance, high comp. piston then you will notice the most difference.

other then that it just makes your bike nice and loud like the rest of us ;)

Signs Of Internal Injurys From Dirt Bike Accident Without Going To The Er?

Ok my son was riding his dirt bike and yes ofcorse all the gear to go with it. helmet,boots,chest protector,exct…anyway he competes in races so he was getting ready for the next race just to get pratice in at a local trail that we go to everyweekend, well he decided to put out a 3' bike ramp and jump it mind. you he is 7. awesome rider but still 7.so before i could explain to him and how to do it he had started to go for it but full throtal-jumped it got about 6 feet of air, then flipped over and over and over again with the bike landing on top of him in the end.at first he was crying call 911 we did not move him so we waited then we cut his clothes off to see the injurys . his groin got a pretty bad blow, and he's brused up .he is complaing that his tail bone hurts.he is able to walk but slowly . he is terrified of the hospital or i would take him. he is alert but seem to have the chills, just wondering if anyone knows signs i should look for when i can't see the injury-thanks mom
Dirt bikes


Get him to the hospital!! I'd call 911 if your not close to hospital. He could be showing s/s of shock, and the bad thing is kids compensate so well for shock thats it often overlooked early. Then they crash and it's too late. Scared or not he needs to be checked for internal bleeding!

What Dirt Bike Should A Beginer Get?

My son is 12 and he's about 5,2. I would like if it under 2000. He wants to race it and to have fun and jump. Also if you can tell me how should I make him get used to the bike before serious use?
thanks
Dirt bikes


With his height and age, if he wants to start racing then you should look at any of the 85cc 2 strokes and in particular the kx85 as it is slightly easier for a beginner to manage. Another option would be the crf150r which is also a mx race bike but a 4 stroke so would also be a bit easier for a beginner to manage.

Look up local tracks in your area. Two sites that have track info are www.wheretomx.com and www.dirtwerkz.com . Find out about joining up so then you can take your son along to practice days to get used to being on the track with other riders. The club secretary will also be able to give you information in regards to what licencing you need to be able to race and how to get a race number. Ask about the rules of racing and find out what all the flags mean so as your son knows what to do when one is waved at him. Also see if the club has a club coach so you can get some lessons for your son.

If you are buying second hand try and take someone along with you who knows about bikes so they can check the bike over as there is no point buying a bike and then finding out that it has major problems as you usually get what you pay for

What Is A Good 1st Time Dirt Bike?

I am 16, about 130 pounds and looking for a dirt bike to ride out on a farm and to ride on some race tracks, i plan to get air so i would like to know what brand, modle and year.

also what to look out for when buying one

Dirt bikes


Why even bother with a small engine? As you learn to ride and improve, you're just going to need a bigger bike. If you get a 150cc, you might as well get a 50cc and soup it up. If you're going to get a smaller engine, get a 125cc two-stroke engine (i.e. a CR125, YZ125, etc.).

If it were me, I'd get a late-model four-stroke. The power delivery is smoother and they're easier to ride. Check out the Honda CRF250 (or at least the CRF230). Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and KTM all make excellent bikes. Some people only buy certain brands (mine are Honda and KTM), but they are all such advanced machines that any of them will be more than enough bike for you. Get at least a 230cc, but only if you're willing to need to buy a bigger bike in a year.

For the record, I ride a 2003 CRF450. If I had bought a smaller bike, it simply would not have been powerful enough, and I'd have had to buy a bigger bike. But I've been riding for over 20 years, and so I knew I needed a big bike.

Selecting A Dirt Bike?

Need a little advice… seems everyone i talk to tells a diffrent story. i'm looking for a dirt bike. i will be using it to play arround in forestry, dunes, trails etc. i'm not looking to race, but it'd be nice to gas it and hit a jump. i'm only looking to spend about $1500.00 as this is my first bike and i'd hate to lay down a $5k machine. i'm looking at the 250's. i am undecided as to 2 vs 4 stroke and model. it seems hard to find a 4 stroke in my price range. i dont mind maintenence but i don't want to have to deal with adjustments while i'm on the trail. i just want a good bike i can play with… one that wont make me wish i had bought a diffrent or better one right away. weight range of the rider will be 160 lbs. the hardest part of selecting is that i have only ridden about 1 hour on a bike so i cannot got out test driving bikes as i wouldnt know what to look for.any non bias input would be great!
Dirt bikes


Honestly you will have to look around and ask individuals or sales people. i had in the past a 2 stroke honda cr125, i loved it, now i have a 4 stroke suzuki dr250. basically a street legal dirt bike, it doesnt seem to have as much power as my 125 did but it does have equal power throughout the rpm range where as my 125 only had great power in high rpms during the powerband, all and all if it is trail riding and a little motocross and you want something cheap and easy to work on i would go with a 2 stroke, top end rebuilds are very easy to do, and there are plenty of shops around the country that work on 2 and 4 stroke motors. good luck!!
