Depends on the background of the kid, if the parents started him off early and he presented the skills, I am all for it. Quite a few of today's top motorsport racers across the board started off at what many people would consider to young of an age. A lot of motorsports have sanctioned jr racing leagues and you would be suprised at the times some of the kids 7 years old and up put down.

i agree with blu01r1 this is very irresponsible when they do the junior dragsters they are in junior vehicles not a motorcycle that i have personally seen full grown men unable to control let alone a child. he is not even a teenager. your are supposed to star off small and work your way up. he is doing his thing for now and i sure do wish he can continue with no problems but remember this rule about motorcycles its not if you are going to go down it is when are you going to go down and at the speeds he is doing it wont be pretty

shouldnt it be some kinda rule that you need to have a class M license...or in the kids case..any kind of license..to run at a drag strip..let alone to run a 200HP motorcycle. kids quick...but one day hes gonna take a spill and i bet his parents sue Suzuki, the drag strip, the helmet maker, etc etc etc.

That kid probably has more experience on a motorcycle than half the people on the forum.

you are probably right...but like they mentioned a couple post above....its not if he goes down....its when he goes down. bikes dont care how much experience you have...it'll still knock your ass down if you get to cocky

ive only been riding for one and a half years but i have almost 16000 miles on my 07 that i bought brand new and i put 7500 miles on my warrior in that time i doubt that kid has more experience than that and i went down when i least expected 5 houses from my house. he couldnt have that much experience on that thing because he barely looks big enough to hold it up again good luck to him
