Point well made and taken. My kids love riding their little 50s on the trails with me, but like you said, I learned by riding smaller displacement bikes working my way up to the larger race spec bikes. I feel quite confident that MY children as well as any other child that learns how to ride at an early age will not be a danger to society and themselves if later in the future they decide to get on one of these bikes. I agree with you and what you are saying.... It all comes down to education and respect. I have been riding for roughly 22 years with an AMA race license for 8 years. There are still times when my 1000cc bike makes me get a little nervous and the thought of putting an uneducated punk getting on one of these scares me as well.....

Nuff said
