1st up welcome to the site man .. hope you like it !

2nd .. run a search .. alot of people have made threeads saying there new and they want to start jumping but dont know how ..

but if you want to start liiek rm125kid sayd start small and get bigger .. probs the best advide your gonna get ..

make little dirt hits around where ever you ride or look for little natural jumps and start on them and just get a feel for the bike being airborne .. even if it is only half a foot.. eventually work your way up and as you get more confidence, competence and knowlege of what your bikes gonna do you will eventually be out there bustin big lol ..

hope that helps..

ok maybe not jump that. Save for a a decent brand name. eg. honda, yamaha.

That thing will snap quick smart if you jump it!

haha i like the last coment but 4 every one who is even remotely thinking about freestyle race a couple of years first eill give u that much more bike control and confidence and will also save on alot of broken bones and also if your talking about a pit bike its probably not the best thing 4 fmx

alot of good advice floatin around. I came from small bikes and worked my confindence up, and I needed something bigger and better as well, riding a new CRF450 now. Im still getting use to her and figureing her out. tracks, trails, ect. Best advice is to get to know the bike and what its going to do in any situation.
