Hey Nick, i got your back, dont feel bad, start on this KLX and move up to a a Ninja
I'm 16 too and i bought my Ninja last November, main reason parents let me get it is number one, ive ridden dirtbikes all my life(definently helps) number two, gas is insanely high!!!
Have fun on the bike man, stay safe, and keep your hopes up for a street bike! Youll get it!
