When considering buying a cheap motocross van or dirt bike van I’d recommend one thing – go for as reliable a van as possible within your budget. After all, getting to the race meeting on time (or at all) is as important as remembering your helmet, right?
I’ve had a lot of different cheap moto x vans and conversions, a Mercedes Sprinter, a high-roof Ford Transit, Renault Master Ambulance and a heavily converted Iveco. My Kentucky Estro lasted about a month before it was written off on the way to a meet. I’d say the better motocross or race vans tend to be spacious, something you need when doing, say, a wheel change on a tight schedule. They can be bought ready kitted out inside or a blank canvas for you to start your own layout, the choice is yours. A toolboard is nice to have and somewhere to sit down, shelter from the rain and take off those muddy boots (or tend to the injuries) is a must.
Cheap motocross vans
If you’re starting out, a cheap motocross van will give you a feel for what you need and there’s little risk as they tend to hold their prices if bought at auction, some even making more money when sold on again.
Looking for a van to do motocross or even just carry motorbikes or bicycles to tracks and meets? A properly built new conversion can be a huge expense but buying at auction makes sense. Often people have already shelled out for custom van interiors and have racking for tools and equipment such as spare wheels, engines etc.
