Is he one of those rare breed, responsible 15yo's or is he a regular egg headed twit of a 15 yo?

I only ask because those 3-4 hundred dollar China made QMB 139's are everywhere on Craigs list, and it is the same engine. A shipped Agility can double or triple the cost.

Will he go dirt biking? At 15, I would have killed a plastic scooter in a few days.

He's rare like me Lol. He really enjoys riding with me its just he doesn't like to ride on the back Lol. The other day I borrowed a scooter from a friend of mine and let my son drive mine and that's all it took. Now he wants me to find him one really bad. Because of money being an issue since I'm the only income I have explained to him that we may need to find one that is in need of some fixing so that way he can build and develop the proper appreciation and love for his scooter the way I have

He's actually pretty responsible with mine. Yea he would like a dirt bike but since we live in town hes more into the idea of a scooter.

Good for you!

I've noticed a trend in the past 3-4 years... All those crappy young parents that were raising monster children have begun to ween away.

Perhaps it is the example of the 19YO's that the new 15YO's are seeing but somehow the next young generation is improving dramatically. I guess there is hope after all.

Good luck finding a bike for your boy. You're a lucky fella to have a good kid.
