How to be a professional motocyclist?

Question

does anyone know how? im only 16 and im planning on being a motorcyclist

Answer 1

Well said Barry M.

WTF?

Do you think that racing a bike is a job?

When did you last hear of an Indian or p**i world champ?

Point taken?

Answer 2

First, its being a motocross rider/racer, not being a professional motorcyclist. Second, you need to buy a bike and ride just about all day, every day.  Seeing as how you're already 16, there's almost no chance of you going pro or anywhere near it.  Most pro riders start almost immediately after they learn how to walk.  And if you have to ask, I highly doubt you have the natural gift it would take to be that good starting at that age. Go ride and have fun, don't think about going pro, it would be a waste of time.

Answer 3

you dont just be a professional "racer" no very many people can become professional they HAVE to be naturals at it..ive seen people race for 4 years and go into the B class or A class and ive seen people race for 4 years and still be in the beginner class

Answer 4

Start with the proper education then ask this question with the knowledge gained in the right forum

Buy some chaps and a hardley and be a village people stand in as well

Answer 5

A commuter?, In a Circus?, Motocross?, Superbike?, Supermoto?, Freestyle? Street Stunt Biker? Flat Track?, Drag Bike Racing?..... Which one?

Answer 6

Irrespective of what nationality you belong to, you could be a world champ.

You just need to start early. If you're already 16 and don't know to ride or have never been on a track, its pretty difficult.

Start riding first and then think about racing, its better that way.
