Short answer: For most kids, a birthday dirt bike is the 50cc gas mini at $300, or $350 total with a helmet. Shipping is free to all 50 states. Same day pickup is open in Tempe for local families. We are a family owned mini moto and ebike club in Tempe.
Order with time to spare
A birthday has a set date, so order early and leave a buffer. No delivery date is promised on a shipped bike. If the date is close and you live near Tempe, same day pickup is the safer path. Our gift guide covers gift timing in full, our online buying guide covers shipping and pickup, and our Christmas guide covers the same buffer rule for a fixed morning.
Pick by the rider, not by the party date
Fit comes first. The 50cc fits ages about 5 to 13 and riders up to 170 lb. Read the size guide and the age guide before you pick a color. Colors are black, blue, green, red and yellow. Black and blue are the colors parents ask for most.
What the price covers
The bike is a 50cc two stroke with pull start. It is automatic, with no gears and no clutch. Top speed is 32 mph. A speed limiter lets a parent set the bike slower while a rider learns. Read the how fast guide for the full speed picture and the cost guide for the full price picture.
What to have ready on the day
Have a helmet that fits before the first ride. The $350 total covers the bike with a helmet. Our safety gear guide covers the rest of the gear, and the helmet total guide covers what that $350 does and does not cover. Mix fuel at 25 to 1 with the fuel mix guide. Set the bike up before the birthday morning with the setup guide, and read the first dirt bike experience guide for the first ride.
What shows up
The bike is about 90 percent built. You fit the front wheel and handlebar with included tools and a video. It is off road only and has no title. Parts support is 1 year through the manufacturer.
For an older rider
A teen who has outgrown the 50cc can move to the Sykerun X5 at $975 or the Sykerun X7 at $1350. Read the teen electric guide or browse the electric collection.
The simple path
Pick the fit first, pick the color second, and order with a buffer. Start with the buying guide, then pick a color in the 50cc collection.
