  • 2022 Kawasaki KX112 is a great dirt bike for adults who want to learn so new skills. We visited my friend Andre from Motoventures Dirt bike Training school and he showed us how capable this little bike is! Probably the best way to learn cool stuff!

    Rado - I've ridden for 50+ years now and, I swear, the most difficult thing for me to learn was to wheelie to the height and distance that I wanted to carry the front end. Most of my riding was either desert in Wyoming or woods riding in Michigan. In WY the trails are many times in big rocks and the ability to get the front end over those rocks to avoid damage to both the bike and myself. In the Michigan woods they must drop dead trees out of the sky because you will come around a corner and, damn!!, there is one! You don't have time to think and it must be automatic. Toward the end of my riding, I still had trouble many times getting it just right. Dunno if I'll be doing much of that anymore as I'm 75 and scheduled for at least one new knee and maybe two and a shoulder.......it is hell getting old. Good luck, my friend, and don't be afraid to fall on your butt learning this technique. Tom P.S. the pivot turn is a really handy move!

      I live and ride in Michigan and know exactly what you mean, I'm healing from an accident with a fallen tree that was laying on the side of the track at Cedar Creek, washed out the front end in a turn.

      @@JacobSnover In the fall the leaves pile up on the trail and are slippery as deer guts when they get wet. I lost the front end on the slick, wet leaves and hit an old oak about the size of a redwood. Needless to say, I didn't move the tree much. I laid there for 30 minutes......you know how it goes.....you don't hurt until you breathe and I could only hold my breath for about 25 minutes........then when you breathe you damn-near pass out. I was working for Dow Chemical in Midland as a research chemist at that point. The riding is awesome, especially in the U.P. I was riding a YZ400....certainly not the thing in the woods. I switched to Husqvarna WR and quit hitting trees.......did hit a deer once, tho, when it ran across in front of me.....almost ended up on my lap.

    I am 5’-9” and did the same thing back in 2020…bought a low-time KX100 to work on “Garvis” moves in my back yard. It works! I love that bike! It has a surprisingly low first gear too. Great video!

    I just got the kx112 as my first motocross bike as an adult. I had trail bikes for the last 2 years but wanted something with better components and I really wanted a 2 stroke.
    I had a yz125x on order but I dont have a ton of time to ride so I saw this video and said screw it when I saw my local dealer got in a kx112.
    Sure it's not a full sized bike but I wanted it to gain skills. Ill upgrade in a few years when I'm sick of this one and hopefully I'm a better rider.

    At 6'2" a 112 would be too small I think? But A YZ125X would be perfect for these kind of drills!

    It's still a kids bike. I always say the 125 2 stroke is the ADULT supermini. People sleep on 125 2 strokes sometimes.
