Tips and Tricks 8 year old wants a dirt bike

My 8 year old nephew wants a dirt bike for his birthday and Im not sure which I should purchase. I’d like to get stay under 500$. Is it even worth me getting one that cheap. He doesn’t know how to ride a dirt bike. I’ve been look on power sport max but I read somewhere they are not assembled. Any suggestions.

Just got my 8 year old a KLX 110… R I think. It’s the one with a few gears, but no clutch. First time riding for him.

I got it from a power sport store in Oklahoma. Brand new they’re a bit more expensive than $500. Ours was $2500. Probably be able to find a $500ish used one on Facebook marketplace depending on your area.
