Should I buy my first Motocross bike?

Yes, yes, yes.

I should have a motorbike licence in the far east but I didn't so never got to ride anything beyond 50cc in my life but now I want a Yamaha TMAX 560 or Honda X-ADV...

Well done on the purchase! Now get some forearm / grip strengtheners. MX bikes are amazing if youre bike fit, but not much fun on track if ur not. Biggest challenge for me was always bike fitness as MX is super physical on a lot of (loam/sandy) practice/race tracks.

That looks nice - need more pics (and you need a big hungry dog/massive chain and padlock)

Awesome enjoy.

I have a Husqvarna FE350 Enduro bike and I love it. I think Enduro is less likely to end up in hospital than motorcross. A lot of it is low speed and technical rather than flat out hitting massive doubles 🙂

I rode a big motocross track the other day, it was terrifying 🙂

Very nice. Last crosser i rode was a friends KX500 2-stroke. He was given it as payment for something and couldn't get it started. I knew "the knack" of getting them started, ie making sure the kickstart is at top of stroke. Had a great few days ripping around on it. Pretty scary mind, ridiculously quick!
