How to get into motocross?
I'm 16, I lost dirt bikes and I love going fast too and I like offroad and everything about riding dirtbikes. I'd love to get into motocross. Only thing is, I'm poor so I can't buy anymore dirtbikes or upgrade my parts and I can't get hired, my whole dirtbike is only stock and its a 2009 Honda CRF100f. Its really not that fast but its still fun to ride and I'd like to move up too. But I'd love to do some racing and get into it and get sponsored. I talk to a kid in my art class who said he was sponsored by Honda, and he owns like over 5 dirtbikes he's shown me.
What would i have to do to get into motocross racing? I live in Florida by the way…
No money = no racing.
Without (great) racing results you will never get sponsored.
Repeat - No money = no racing.
Its a very expensive sport. Your 16 get another job or get one if you don't. Your right your big enough to move onto a bigger bike. Go get a crf230 or a duel sport and stick to offrode. Go to YouTube and watch enduro kex. Its very unlikely that your friend is sponsored by Honda. You can send into different bike and gear brands and get sponsored but all they give you are stickers and maybe a free pair of grips. Hondas money and daddy's money are to different things.
Time to get a couple jobs.
Just realize that the current 16 year olds that are competitive have been at it for 10 years. Going to have to progress insanely fast to catch up (without getting hurt).
In the mean time, start training. Two hours of endurance and strength training each day.
Work every minute of your free time. Save up.
- What Motocross Bike For An Adult Beginner? I'm an adult who wants to get into motocross and have approximately £5k to spend on a bike. I have no experience so would need to learn how to ride firstly. I'm about 5"7 and my friend has recommended Honda CRF150, but am having trouble finding a seller. Would a CRF250 be alright for a beginner?
- How to get dead motorcycle into pickup truck? My Honda Shadow broke down on the interstate on a flat surface on the median. Costs a ton to tow it and I just need to get it into my truck and I have a motorcycle ramp. This things heavy. Any ideas getting it in? The motorcycle ramp is a little steep so even with 3 people I think it'd be too heavy to push in. Any ideas? Has anyone ever used a come-along? They only have 6 feet of cable so would you need 2 and then winch it in?
