Top Youth Dirt Bikes For 2023

Apollo DB-X5

Riding a dirt bike is an outstanding outdoor experience for older youth and teens.

They are looking for fun and what a great way to get them away from the unhealthy habit of spending time indoors with video games and phones.

Mid-sized dirt bikes (generally designed for youth aged 8-15) are extremely versatile on the trail or track. And, in some cases, they may be a perfect fit for smaller adults.

As has been said, a family that plays together, stays together. With youth and teens as part of the family trail-riding experience, they are learning a new sport and new skills that will help them gain confidence. Practice makes perfect and they will keep growing with those skills. Additionally, dirt biking has its own social network which will enable the entire family to meet new people who are enjoying the same sport.

The great news is that the purchase of a good dirt bike doesn’t have to break the bank. Sure, you can spend big bucks on a Japanese brand such as Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha or Suzuki – but our affordable Chinese models offer many of the same features and often are almost identical clones of the pricier brands.

If you have been considering a particular Japanese model, you owe it to yourself to take a good look at a comparable Chinese version that will be roughly half the price.

Also consider that at www.familygokarts.com we have been reliably delivering family fun since 1990 and are always here to help with your purchase and to answer any of your after-the-sale questions or concerns. Buying from a reputable online dealer cuts out the “middleman” and helps you save even more money. In doing so, you will be joining thousands of satisfied customers throughout North America.

If you are looking for a youth dirt bike, here are five great models for 2023 that have proven to be popular and will no doubt be relatively maintenance-free:

*Vitacci DB-V6 — The Vitacci DB-V6 125cc Dirt Bike is the perfect size play bike for trail rides and off-road adventures! The V6 is powered by a durable, carbureted single-cylinder 4-stroke 124cc engine and a manual 4 speed transmission. For kids that know how to handle a clutch or are graduating from an auto or semi-auto bike, the V6 is a great fit. The bike’s 17-inch front wheel is big enough to offer ample suspension travel and clearance and tackle off-road obstacles while still being small enough to keep the seat within a reasonable height of just less than 30 inches. And a 14-inch rear wheel puts power to the ground efficiently through a 14/41T sprocket and aggressive off-road knobbies. This is one of the best Chinese kids motorcycles available on the market today! You get a super strong steel cradle frame, front and rear disc brakes and a stainless exhaust header, all wrapped up in tough plastics with great color choices and awesome graphics. Kick start.

*Apollo DB-X4 — Ideally sized for teens or small adults, the Apollo DB-X4 Semi-Automatic Dirt Bike is perfect for beginners or as a fun play big for experienced riders. Powered by a 110cc single-cylinder 4-stroke engine and 4-speed transmission, and riding on 14-inch front wheel and 12 rear, the DB-X4 is ideal as a pit bike or trail riding. A manageable 30-inch seat height and light 156 pounds makes it accessible for most youth. Hydraulic disc brakes on the front and rear of the bike provide excellent stopping power and enhance handling in hilly terrain, in turns and during technical trail riding. The semi-automatic shifting means you can ride without ever having to fuss with a clutch. Reliable kick start. Several colors.

*Apollo DB-X5 — The Apollo DB-X5 RFZ is another great off-road motorcycle in the Apollo RFZ line, this time with a traditional 4-speed manual transmission, kid-friendly 14-inch front tire and approachable 30-inch seat height. As a mid-size bike, with a net weight of 150 lbs., it’s perfect for older teens and adults. The manual transmission lets more advanced riders show their skill, offering finer control over gearing than similar automatic bikes. Features a high-strength steel down tube frame, telescopic forks and monoshock rear swingarm for competent handling on rough off-road trails. Front and rear disc brakes and 12 inches of suspensions travel offer second-to-none control on the trails. Comes in several colors and cool racing graphics!

*Apollo DB-X6 — The Apollo DB-X6 is a fun mid-size dirt bike with a 125cc engine and fully automatic clutch for youth or adults. The bike is built around a rugged, high-strength steel down tube frame and rides on telescopic forks and a monoshock rear swingarm for competent handling on rough off-road trails. The 14-inch front wheel is wrapped in a 2.5-inch knobby and the 12-inch rear wheel wears a 3-inch knobby for excellent traction. This dirt bike compares closely in size to the Honda CRF70 and 110, Yamaha TT-R110 and Kawasaki KLX110 but comes in with a marginally taller seat and bigger engine. Plus, you get hydraulic disc brakes on the front and rear of the motorcycle and a smooth shifting automatic clutch for effortless riding. The Apollo DB-X6 is ideal for beginner riders or smaller adults and makes a great little pit bike for more experienced riders. Kick start. Several colors.

*TrailMaster TM-22 — The TM22 Dirt Bike from TrailMaster is a powerful mid-size motorcycle that is a great choice for trail riding or as a pit bike! Featuring a single-cylinder 4-stroke 124cc engine and a manual 4 speed transmission, this bike is a great start to more technical riding. A rugged, high-strength steel downtube frame provides the TM22 with amazing durability, and smooth-riding telescopic forks and a monoshock rear swingarm allow for precise handling even on rough off-road trails. The TM22 rides on a 14-inch front wheel and 12-inch rear and boasts over 10 inches of ground clearance! The low-weight frame and relatively low 29-inch seat on the TM22 set it up to be a fantastic dirt bike for smaller youth that are ready to learn shifting with a manual clutch. Hydraulic disc brakes on the front and rear of the motorcycle provide excellent stopping power and improved handling over different grades, in tight turns, and during trail riding. Comes with a reliable kick starter. Available in a variety of colors!
