Where to get kids bike

[thaiscot]

My 8yr old daughter would like a motorbike to mess around on at home ( not on the roads ie an offload bike )there are some on lazada but at the 6 to 7000 baht range with pullstart engines

 

Not sure how these Chinese made bikes are , Has anyone got one or knows someone  who has one ? Are they any good   ? Or does anyone  know where else you could get any decent ones ( price isn't too much of an issue as I'd much rather pay a bit for a good one than cheap for a piece of s##t )

 

I have attached an example of the kind that are on lazada

Neighbors...if you have any are going to love this idea!!!

They are usually called "pocket bike", if you Google this you will find more information.

It's a chainsaw or lawnmower engine popped into a cheap bike frame, you get what you pay for of course.

For driving some rounds on a farm it's probably OK, how long it will last has to be seen ????

 

The smallest "proper bike" which I know of and is widely available would be the Kawasaki KSR110, but probably still way too big for a 8 year old, so such a pocket bike might be an option.

Search Lazada Minimoto off road bikes. 

The 49cc 2 stroke engines are so easy to maintain if it's pull start no worries.

My son was riding a minimoto track bike at 4 years old in UK.

Maybe try KTM Thailand for something like this:

Why not wait a couple of years, then she can ride a real bike on the real roads?    LOL

Lots of experts learned on closed roads or private property when they were too young to get a license.

If you could find an old Honda Chaly that might work but I don't think less than 7500.

When daughter gets fed up you can ride it to 7-Eleven.
