Default Good Helmets & Throddle control screw!!!!!

I was not offended by the idiot comment, its ok, you were just making a good point. My daughter has ridden now for 3 years, and weighs about 100 pounds. We were considering putting her on a larger machine because the 90 seems small to her. We are keeping it another year and told her to ride it right and she won't have as many problems.
I saw a real idiot at St Anthony Memorial Day, well I saw the kid, I wish now I had taken a picture to post, it would have lit up this forum. This little kid was about 5-maybe 40 lbs, wearing shorts and riding a Trail Blazer or Scrambler, The kids feet didn't reach the pedals, they were either curled up behind on the back fenders or straight forward on the front fenders, sometimes riding on the engine housing. No way this kid had any control of this big bike, it did have a helmet, tho. We saw this kid several times bouncing along barely reaching the handlebars.

Don't let the hp numbers fool you. Its all in how you get it to the ground. Clutching clutching clutching!

DITTO on the boots,gloves,helmet,chest protector!But I have always got rid of the throttle stos on my sons quads.He needed to learn the power and respect it.Don get me wrong he has been hurt bad (broke both arms and a chest protector) But he learned a leason when you are on a 50cc you dont try a tripple that the 400s couldnt make.Now he rides a 125 Breeze and handles it like a pro.
