Cheap mini dirt bikes tips.

Move the bike to be sure the wheels work properly and the swing arm bearings are good. Test the brakes and clutch, which beginning riders burn out easily on either an expensive or cheap mini dirt bike.

New sprockets, chain and a clean-looking bike might only indicate the seller is a good salesman, not that the bike received good care.

Inquire if it was used as a trail bike or for racing. Low mileage is a great feature but might cost extra. A test ride is good if there is an unbiased qualified rider available.

A few other things to keep in mind while looking is that safety gear such as helmets and suits is needed. The prospective rider should be old enough to understand laws, rules, and warnings.

You could spend days looking at the different makes, models and colors, so find some older bike magazines to browse through.

Pick out four or five bikes and show the pictures to your child. Together, look for reviews of those bikes, in magazines or online. Too many negative comments or suggestions such as "perfect for experienced riders" are good reasons to cross it off the list.

Being cautious is just good practice when buying anything secondhand. Ask someone to go along with you if you are not sure of what to look for. If you are not interested in the purchase once you arrive, do not waste the seller's time.

Say thank you, leave and visit the next opportunity. Make your shopping experience for a cheap mini dirt bike rewarding and fun.
