The Shop
But when 50's cost as much as a 125, it kills the youth participation also.
We also have a group of 50/65 kids that go on weekend trips to NC to ride also if you want to tag along on some trips.
Be prepared for long nights in the garage with your wife yearning for your warmth in bed cuz you won’t be there!
We go on weekends. Leave Friday after school, drive to Fayetteville NC. Ride Saturday at East Bend, stay in a nice hotel Saturday night in Advance NC. Hotel has an Indoor pool with two 2 story water slides hot tub. Ride Sunday at mx421 until 4ish then head home. If you can find another friend to split the trip with we do for $200 bucks each.
Cracked the muffler in the first 20 hours, the inner cone snapped off.
Stator went at about the 60 hours mark.
Ring and Piston every 30 hours.
Two sets of radiators. The aftermarket ones are much better, but we can't race with them in Aus as the class is a stock bike class (Got away with running them at a state level but could not at the junior nationals here)
We have 80 hours on our now, can still race the 50 class for another two years here, but will only do one more. Have a race mid Jan, then will sell the 17 and get a fresh one to get us through the year. Will only run the 50 on race days, all other riding will be done on the YZ65.
Bigger bike is so much easier all round
Fresh air filters and go ride
Probably could have gone to a softer spring rate to help a little more, but he is only riding that for fun at the moment and it is saving us putting more hours on the 50, the 50 would have 110 hrs or more if we didnt have the 65 lol.
six months on, he is still 7 years old (8 next March) he can just touch the ground on one side but not enough to start it himself unless in a deep rut haha.
So far no issues at all, but he does not ride it any where near as fast as it will go, but What I have seen from friends with older faster kids, bike is still rock solid.
Actually the 50 was super solid until he picked up speed and started riding it reasonably hard. Will be interesting to see how we go with a fresh 50 next year.
