Newbie, looking for advice

Howdy y'all, I'm Damon. I have a plan to get my motorcycle license but my husband suggested getting a dirtbike first to learn how to ride. I think that's a great idea so I'm just looking for advice on buying one second hand. for context im a bigger guy, around 270

Questionable bike, still thinking about picking it up, give me reasons not to.

I currently don't have a running trail bike, stuck on the streets for now. Dude has this thing posted for 700 bucks on marketplace not terribly far from me. It's a Honda xr 200r, this is the only picture I have of it for now, but other than it runs, that's all I know about it. Figured I'd ask him about it, but also figured Id ask here too. It'd be a first Honda for me, I'm used to the chonda clones.

Starter Dirtbike Reccomendations

Hello,

We are just starting to get into the dirt bike world.

My 12 year old is about 5,10 in height and wondering what a good starter bike reccomendation would be?

I have seen reccomendations for KLX300 and CRF300, but unsure if thats appropriate for his age.
