What companies make starting blocks for shorter riders on the starting line? I know Motosport Products makes them but they are on back order. Is there anyone else?

Funny thing is back in the late 80's, early 90's starting blocks were "not allowed". I remember having some when I first moved up to 80's and I couldn't use them at the LL qualifiers. So I had to find a clump of dirt and used it.

This ^^^^^. You don't have to spend 20X on every single thing.

Blows me away how much people pay for commons stuff. Saw a thread the other day with guys recommending $60 air pumps. Bro, get a $10 one at Walmart.

I just thought of something. If shorty gets blocks, then I want some, too! I want some that are footpeg height, and I just barely slide my feet back over to get them on the pegs!

YEAH!!

My brother used one of these when he moved from the 60 to the 80. Spray painted it green to match his kx
