-Answer aluminum bars
-Moose aluminum handguards
-Aluminum skid plate
-New Starcross tires
-2 new air filters

This will be his 1st real MX bike and definately his 1st 2-stroke (JR50 dont count). His CRF100 will be retired from active duty at the end of this racing season ( then I get to get my grubby little mits on it :laugh: )

Taking him out tonight to get aquanted with his new ride. This is going to be interesting. The look on his face when that bike comes up on the pipe is going to be priceless :yikes: :) :yikes:

Very nice...I remember my first race 80. It was a 1981 YZ80 and it ripped. He is going to love it!

Ahh yess. The joys of fatherhood going from bike to bike.
I don't see a spot for the saw and machetie. Looks like a fun time. Welcome to the twosmoke mix club.
Congrats on the new scoot. :ride:

Looks Like It Is All Set Up For Off Road, Digger Has Got To Be Pumped!!! There's Nothing Like Increasing The H/p Factor By Three. Make Sure You Get A Picture Of His Expression The First Time That Thing Comes On The Pipe!!!

Yep got a YZman in the making. Took him out tonight and he LOVED it. He hopped off that for a few laps and rode his CRF100 for about a lap and came back and grabed the 85. He is totaly over the CRF100. He was like that 100 is SOOO slow.

I already told him to NEVER tell his mom just how fast that bike is. She will totaly freek.

LOL we were there on Wednesday...guess I didn't recognize it for some reason...! We have been there twice this year. Not a bad track and you're right about it being cheap.

Sandbox....Maybe. Well see. Im a little pore this week :(

Ive got a lot of fork work coming up ol buddy ol pal. I blew the fork seal out on the X this weekend big time, oil everywhere. And the forks on the YZ dont feel right. Im not sure if the compression and rebound are working. It feels like all spring. Somethings up. And the shock on the X needs done. As does my Dampner......Got a free weekend handy? :nener:

Anyways hes racing the 100 this weekend. Probably bring both though so he can get a little track time (if they will let him)
