How safe is motocross racing for young boys?

Answer 1

If you couldn't get hurt, then dirt biking wouldn't be fun anymore. My add to the previous reply... It is safe when a child races within his ability with proper training from a qualified individual. Racing in a competitive class as a novice is where I have seen most kids get hurt due to lack of experience and preparation. Too often a parent buys a 12 year old an 85cc bike and puts him in competition after only a few practices. That is scary.

Motorcross is dangerous period, but you can help reduce those dangerous by making sure who ever is racing knows the track and there bike, always besure to walk the track before you race and look for the minor bumps or dip ins that you might want to avoid and always be sure to wear all protective gear MX boots are also important

Yes, dirt bikes are dangerous. How dangerous? It depends on the type of riding you do, like desert, hill climbs, drags, racing, trails. Why is itdangerous? Because no matter what kind of riding you do anything can happen. Examples, you could come short on a jump, you could hit a rock in the desert, you can lose control. There are multiple things that can happen. Plus the skill level you ride at also depends on how dangerous it can be.Riding is a sport\hobby that takes a lot of focus, and being in physically good shape. Just cause a sport\hobbies is dangerous doesn't mean you shouldn't try it. One last thing the level of danger will only be as high as you make it in your ride. thank you for your time
