Google this and find out how the Government plans to ban all ATV and M/C products intended for kids under 12.

Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, Title I, Section 101

Go to any manufacturer and find a small bike listed.... CRF50's TTR50's etc... all gone...

Nanny state government trying to protect kids from eating a motorcycle by banning them...

This will be interesting to follow....
