Wanting to start mx racing?

Question

im 31 years old and i have rm125 and i dont what class im in and can my bike handle it and what do i need to do

Answer 1

you need a bigger bike bro unless your awsome

Answer 2

I think roost is right and a bigger bike would be in order for you as you may find the rm125 a tad small at your age, that is unless you are a very small person.  

Go along to a local club and they will be able to tell you what section would be good for someone beginning and your age.  Then you can have a look as to what bikes tend to ride that section, but a larger four stroke may be a better option for you

Answer 3

dude, all i have to say is.............good luck:(

Answer 4

Okay, here is the deal. Since you are beginner you will race C class. You have two options, one is to run the 125cc C class with a bunch of crazy, reckless teenagers ( I don't recommend this option), the second is to run the 30 plus C class with sane people your age. This is a much safer option. The only downside to running the 30+ class is that there is no displacement limitation so you will be racing against mainly 450's. This is still safer than the first option and if you like it you can always buy a 450 down the road if you want to be competitive. Also I feel I need to clear up this confusion people have when they say a motocross bike is "too small". All full sized MX bikes are basically the same size. Generally a 125 is a little taller even than a 250 or 450. So it has nothing to do with your height, only your weight. A full sized MX bike can be under powered or under sprung, but never "too small".
