Minibikes weren’t originally created for children. They were made small and ‘toylike’ just for the novelty and compact qualities but I guess the logical and final conclusion someone made was, “hey look, it’s like a full size motorcycle for a child” but definitely not a child’s toy in the traditional sense because of all the ‘sharp edges’.
Show her all the photos of celebrities riding minibikes from the golden era; Steve McQueen comes to mind, John Wayne, The Monkees, John Lennon, Donny Osmond, Jackson 5, that guy from Bonanza who played Hoss, etc etc.
Quote James T Kirk; “the more complex the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play”...which basically tells her you’re a genius and you need this outlet for balance and harmony.

Its easy to explain a love for mini bikes. They are cheep light weight to get easy to modify easy to transport easy to repair off road vehicles that pretty much anyone who can ride a bike can learn to ride quickly. and unlike most bigger more expensive vehicles its easy to put together a bunch and take all your friends out mini biking with you. I've taken most of my friends out ridding with me at some point. they all love it. sorry to hear you wife doesn't understand but maybe if you explain it this way she will get it.
I don't have to explain any of my hobbies to my g/f (might as well be wife, we've been together long enough). She has hers, I have mine. It's an agreement we have.
Mini bikes 100% are toys. They serve no real purpose other than to have fun. The few people that use them for actually doing things are the rare exception.
