Kids Dirt Bike Guide: Pick by Age, Height & Engine Size

Every FRP guide for parents choosing a first or next dirt bike, in one place: fit, age, speed, safety and price.

Fit matters more than age. A rider should reach the ground with the balls of both feet and stay under the bike's weight limit. Start with the table, then open the guide that matches your rider.

Before the first ride: every FRP dirt bike is a 4-stroke, EPA-certified off-road vehicle for private property or designated riding areas. They are not street legal, and FX125 and FX140 do not ship to California. A fitted helmet, eye protection, gloves, long sleeves, long pants and over-the-ankle boots are required, and young riders need adult supervision.
