Personally I don't like two wheeled motorbikes of any type...they are too dangerous... That said, I grew up on bikes of all sorts from a VERY young age since my dad is a huge bike lover (and later bought a Honda shop of his own). I have never been into motorbikes much yet I love go-karts and race cars etc.

Anyway, I will not let Riley be on a motorbike at such a young age...although I don't know how successful I'll be with that one since my dad will surely sneak him on for a ride at some stage. I think that to ride a pee-wee 50 or similar under 10 years old is okay if they have the appropriate safety gear and if the bike won't go too fast (ie rev-limited) & the child must be 'mature' enough to ride too...argh, I'm in 2 minds about it because of my upbringing!!!

PS My dad is already building Riley a go-kart of his own...yikes! Apparently it will go very slow but I'll still have to check it out before he'll be allowed in it...but I do think that learning to ride/drive at a young age is a good thing for later down the track...
