17 mate

but you can ride a 50cc motorbike at 16

but then with bikes you can ride up to a 125cc at 17, but you cant ride over a 250cc unless you are 21, or have had a motorbike lisence for 2 years...so you could ride over 250cc at 19!

its all confusing!

50cc is a little on the small side, thats what some of the neighborhood boys ride on a little dirt bike course that they have. in Kentucky you get your drivers licences at 16 1/2, and you can ride a motorcyle at this age too plus any size motorcylce. its not to bad.
