My son is dying to get a motorcycle. His current desire is to purchase a KTM dirt bike he saw on youtube. He says KTM stands for "Kids Toys that Moms don't like." He already has riding gear.
I've seen kids riding around in the pits at Loudon, and we looked at some Bettencourt a while back. He's relatively tall for a 7yo and will be taller still next year.
He'd like to get a dirt bike, but since we live in Boston, dirt is kind of scarce. I'm thinking that I should buy him something really slow, perhaps a minibike? Those of you responsible for the care and feeding of 7yo boys know there's a reason we don't let them vote....
Suggestions? I'm inclined to let him pine away until age 10, but he's defeating my strategems. Told him he needed good grades last week and he's been knocking out 90's and 100's on all his tests since - up from 70's.
I'm in no rush but this is the time of year people get rid of these toys so to buy one and put it away until spring might work.
