We have a 250EX, and my dad wants to get something else so we can ride together. We looked at a used Banshee but he kinda wants a 125 dirtbike but I can't fit one. He also wants an on and off-road bike.

dude I KNOW that you are only 11 so if i was you i wouldn't be worrying about a banshee or 125 dirtbike. Your dad sure sure doesn't need to mess with those 2 bikes if he hasn't ever rode much.Your dad needs a xr200 or ttr (i think) 125 yamaha 4 stroke dirtbike/play bike

I like the idea of a mellow four stroke over a Banshee or MX bike for an adult beginner too, but the XR250 is a better pick since it's a real dirt dirt bike and won't seem too tame after a month of riding.

my little bro is 11 and he can't even handle my 250 and even an 80cc dirtbike might be too much for him. hes not small or anything he just doesn't have the experience. i'm sure u have more than him but not enough to handle a banshee yet. and i don't think my dad could handle a banshee either.

Well, if he's really experienced he probably already knows what he wants. I think a 125 would be a liitle small for most men, though.
