fireman_343 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 So, after almost 3 years on his PW50, it's time to step it up a bit. I picked up this KLX 110 for him last week. I'm working on it right now.. Just got new sprockets/chain, and a new seat and Monster Energy sticker kit is on the way. A few friends are hooking him up with new wheels, bars, swing arm, forks and 4th gear drum. Thanks (you know who u are) Anyway, he can't wait to learn how to ride it, and learn how to shift (kinda) When he is use to the bike, I'll be getting it set up for pavement and slap on some roadrace wheels w/ TT92's!! Wife walked down to the basement when we were both at full tuck acting like we were racing each other... She had to snap a pic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireman_343 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Thanks guys! I'm excited, so much so that I haven't touched my race bike yet.. Been buying all kinds of stuff for his and getting it ready!! Here is a pic from early last season at CRP following me on a XR100 with him on his old PW.. First time on pavement and he did great, drag'n pegs in every corner! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireman_343 Posted February 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Okay, last update....Justin got to ride his new dirt bike today for the 1st time!! I am probably the proudest father on the planet!! No joke! He only fell off the bike twice when he came to a stop (bikes a little heavier and taller than his last one). I didn't focus on having him shift gears or anything now, I just wanted him to get comfortable on the bike and get use to the power delivery, suspension, etc.. He did great and everything he should at this stage!! He was happy, and the first thing he said to me was, "daddy, I'm not slow anymore!" I couldn't help but laugh!! I'll have to adjust the bars up a little, because he was sitting too far back on the seat, but... today was just letting him run it around and get the feel of the bike. Anyway, here are a few pic's I took (with my iPhone, damn thing takes great pic's)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadyone Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Thats awesome!! Dad and I were in Competition Acc. last week and I saw him eye balling the minis for my little brother who is 8. he wouldn't admit it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
