Nice dirt bike! I bought my son a xr-80, he just did not seem too interested in quads. then I sold the XR, got him a YZ-80, which he rode for a year. and now he likes riding the quad better! What to do? Haha :D

[AtvMxRider]

Jim you just going to have to park the explorer outside from now on.....;)

[Guy400]

Nice bike, Jim!! You're the best dad ever! BTW, your son's burns from the scalding water are healing nicely:D

[toby400ex]

theres an iceberg in your coldisac (sp?):eek2:

[Rip_Tear]

That was very nice of you! I hope hes not riding it with shorts on, every time I ride with shorts I burn my legs.. My dad bought me my first quad for a bounce for working, then the SLED for good measure! I love him! I will knock that wall out for ya Jim, it will cost you whats left of the extra C-dale, I will send you a blasting cap in the mail :devil

What do you got against dirtbikes :blah

I wish my dad would buy me a bike for getting the good grades that im getting :rolleyes: like he SAID he would :rolleyes: PROMISED :( :grr

He's lucky to have you as a dad ;) hope he likes it!

oh and ... you think he's ready for an xr100? He seems pretty big .. I remember getting my kx80 and i could only throw 1 leg over it, now that i touch the ground on it, i need something bigger lol

sshhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....that is supposed to be a secret!:o

[cheetah]

Just send me one of those cdales Jim. That ought to free up some space.

Sweet! Do you need another son?:D Seriously, that was great what ya did for him. Getting him involved at a young age is a great thing. It will pay off as he gets older. I started riding 3 wheelers with my dad when I was just 8 and we worked up to riding cr's and rm's together when he was 62yoa. He taught me that the family that plays together stays together. And man those are some of the greatest memories in my life. Especially letting him lead when riding bikes so I could watch him wipe out in the mud puddles.:D

btw- I just picked up an '02 crf450 for an absolute smokin deal, $1500. So I'm back in the bike realm also. But it will probably be disassembled and made into a race quad.

Hope he likes it. I had a xr80 and liked it. Very easy to start and learn to ride on. Now I got a KX100.

Mine's a 98 Sport and I have had absolutely no problems with it. I am not too impressed with the transmission though. I read somewhere there are issues with it; and mine flares under acceleration at times. I only have 42,000 miles on it, JIM

has he been out on it at all yet?

[Jay300ex]

Cool bike dad! It fits him pretty good, though he WILL out grow it faster then your wallet may or may not like hehe.

Jay

id wait til he had it mastered and wore it out then he can move to a kx 65 or cr 80 or the xr 100 etc

Yeah, it is fun to see the look on their faces! I basically teach my kids that there are consequences to everything they do in life. They are really good about taking responsibility for their actions, which is a lost art nowadays. I hope to take him out on it today, it was raining yesterday, and he was at his grandparents' til late anyways.

I will wait til he can throw this bike around like his Redline and do the same stuff on it, then I will know it is time for a new one......JIM
