    Safety course for little riders!

    by Baam5774 » Wed Jan 12, 2005 6:54 pm

    Just purchased my 5 year old daughters their first motorcycles for their B-Day. Two shiny red CRF50F's! Only safety course I can find is for 6 and up. I have been riding for the last 22 years or so and am capable and comfortable with teaching them, just thought a course would help also. Any suggestions?

    Honda dealers have a DVD/VHS video for kids and learning the basics of riding.
    I was given one free when I purchased our CRF's.[/quote]

    Didnt want that to sound like a video suffices as personal instruction.. but if the only course in your area is for kids one year older.. other methods are available to help you teach them. I know, having Gary Semic pretty much re-iterate, via a Motocross training video, what I've been saying , helped my son realize I might have a clue as to what I'm trying to teach him... (and I learned some things as well....)

    Got the video when we bought them. We checked that out a few weeks ago. I figure a summer of learning and then we can take the course next summer after they turn 6. Got a nice surprise the other day. My daughters and wife surprised me with a CRF150 so I can "keep up" with them on their 50's. Thanks again.
