Check out my holeshot this past weekend at 3 Palms near Houston. On the outside on a 125 against 250's and 450's. I bought the bike for my son the morning of the race and then decided to enter the Over 50 class that day. Its a stock 2014 with a PC pipe and silencer along with V Force reeds. We were gated with the Over 40 class. Had not ridden a 125 for many many years. I still prefer riding a 450 or 250F. Just wanted to share, because I know there are a lot of two stroke lovers on here.

That's not possible. Two strokes are slow and out dated. Video must be edited

All joking aside, good job zoom. That was awesome!

Since you asked....

Won both moto's by about 20 seconds. Had a lot of fun, only 4 laps, got really tired. I don't ride very much any more. Most of my focus is on my 14 year old. He races Supermini. Got this 125 for him. He rode it after the races where over.

Ive seen a 12 year old on a 125 get a big jump out of the gate against a pro level guy on an AF 500, uphill.

Reaction time, you got it or you dont...

That reaction was killer! I've been able to do the same on my 125. It's a great feeling. However I race D class, good reaction and remembering to twist it all the way open is the key. I think most riders get caught up in the chaos once they get past the gate that they forget the rest of the throttle.
