Answer:

As Mason said, a 125 2 - stroke or a 250 4 - stroke would be ideal for starting out, you don't want to get anything too big or fast, no point in trying to walk before you can crawl. as for the other things related to riding, you would need to join your nearest motorcycle club, but as i don't know what country you are in, i cant really give a straight answer. other things you will definitely need is all the right safety gear(helmet, gloves, back protector, shoulder Protector, boots, goggles etc, etc) any shops that sell motocross bikes should be able to help you out too. One other thing that you have to take into consideration is, how are you going ot get the bike to all the different racetracks? is you family going ot support you doing it? i don't want to pour cold water on your dream, as i have had many similar ones myself, but you have to be realistic too, and finally, you have to be prepared for the possibility of getting hurt, sounds negative, but it is a part of bike racing, something you accept, or don't, best of luck in getting started.
