  • Dang this kid is growing up fast, new chapter in his life and we both are enjoying it to the fullest!!!. I hope this new bike inspires him even more into this awesome sport. Danny has worked his butt off at school and at home and also at the races even his 65 was getting small for him. Today he had a session with Hunter and it improved him a lot,specially standing the correct way. Yes he needs to work to use his front brk and to open the throttle more but again the 85 is a big bump in hp from his yz65. He will be ready for next season and so do I.

      Like '4"10 in this video,I lowered the bike an inch, by raising the fork tube up and took preload in the back to make it lower, then I checked the Sag with him on it,now he is probably in the 5ft tall, soon will have to raise the bike up,I say in 6months or so

      lowered 1" in front and took enough preload from the back to get him in the right Sag, then took it to my suspension guy and he tuned the clickers and re adjusted the sag

      @@hyposez1129 I mean the best way to do it, is sit on one of them bud and see if you are flat footed or heals up a bit. Danny is Tippy toes but he has grown and in a couple months I'll raise it a little maybe 1/2", this bike should at least. Hopefully last hint till he is 12, then will be or kx112 or kx100 then around 14 he should be on a 125, or my oldest son ktm150sx. But again best thing go sit on one!!

    The throttle looked like the ones in ATV’s,. Is that stock for your dirt bike or is it just a modification?

    I respect how your teaching him and stuff but you gotta let him ride at his own pace, bc thats just gonna end up in crashing bad if you push him too much. (no hate btw he's a really good rider anyway)

    • @thumbgas888
      @thumbgas888  Před 2 lety +2

      Thank you for your opinion I do respect that!!, I like to push him a little because I've seen him ride hard. The thing is when he rides with me he tends to be lazy because he knows that if he slows down I'll slow down,but if you see other videos when I am not around he is on it,but again thanks for your input much respect for that👊🏾😎Thax 4 watching!!
