Seems like a cycle here in Tx, everybody jumped to 4 wheelers and alot of folks seem to be coming back to bikes. We have had 2 mx tracks open up and one new Pro quality track being built now in our area. Seems more 30+ guys are buying bikes to ride with the kids.

We seem to be selling alot of big thumpers, especially in the WR and TTR lines.

Kids 4 wheeler sales sucked this Christmas and we couldnt keep 4stroke kids bikes in stock.

Is there a trend or is it just in my little corner of the world?

Adult 4 wheeler sales arent down, but new bike customers are coming in.

Safety issues, easy 4 stroke use? Whatcha think? I think electric start high quality trail bikes are one reason.

I have been doing some reading and from what i'm hearing is that dirt bike and even street bike sales are up tremendously this year and we are just now to March. I don't really see it locally around here but dirt bikes have never been big here. I can see the street bike sales going up due to gas prices and all......
