Nothing at all wrong with a Honda Rebel 250 as a starter bike. Lots of MSF’s used them. He is gonna take a MSF course, right?Rich

Here in Iowa he has to. But he will start with a permit like all my other boys & grandson did. You can get that in Iowa at 14. No passengers, you can only follow a legal rider who must be, If I remember right, 21 and a relative, or something like that. That gives me and his uncles 2 years to teach him how to be smart and stay alive. He will never be out front and there is a ton for him to learn. At 16, he will do the safety course stuff. This is my 6th and last rodeo with training a kid and so far so good. We are tough as hell about this, and he will pay attention or get it all shut down till he gets the message. No excuses. Between the 3 sons, nephews, and grandchildren they now have over 100 years of riding among them and so far nothing but deer a time or so, which are usually a crapshoot. 2 of the 3 deer were on me.
