took my son and a friend down to renton motorsports this afternoon to look at bikes and watch people ride. they have an indoor track there. it is really cool. ( but LOUD) anyway's, we are sitting in the stands as they let the 85cc experts out, and this kid (#615) proceeds to kill the track. i couldn't believe how fast this kid was going. it was ryan villopoto.( see him in your thor catalog)
and if him on his 85cc wasn't enough, he proceeded to go out on his xr50, in green, and jump every double and pass every bike big or small. and he wasn't riding it with the beginers either. there is no doubt in my mind that he would smoke me on my kx 250, with him on his 50.( i know that isn't saying very much.)
simply amazing!
my question to the masses is: other than being a great rider, do you think that riding an 85 indoors on a small track is an advantage over riding a big bike?
i think it is.
