My system has been going on for over 11 years, so I'm invested in the equipment already. This is the third child that the oldest XR50 has carried. Here's a short video of of the second rider who has now graduated to be the second rider of a CRF70, and her little sister on one of the other XR50s. (Her 3 year old sister is on the original family XR50 (her cousin's, who is now 14 and rides a 2000 XC200 in the mountains with me). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSoCKeZj5Ok and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GDtgTM8b-M In the "grandkid fleet", we have a 2001 XC250, a 2000 XC200 (lowered 2"), two XR/CRF100, an XR80, XR70, and four XR/CRF50. (My wife's TTR125LE also gets riden quite a bit by the older grandaughters who don'thave their own bikes. I move them up as they grow. My daughter has a XR100 and the three sons who still ride have a '99 EC250, a '00 XC250, and a '99 EC200. (the EC200 Dick Burleson rode for the Feb '99 test in "Dirt Rider" magazine. The reason Dick kept talking about how loud it was, was because it had a MC silencer on it for the test. A friend down here has the XC250 that was riden in that test article. ) I've only got one grandkid left who is not yet on a bike, but he's ready. I think he may not have to wait until his 3rd birthday. This was taken a year ago. The boy's got it, bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txzmPuBDZpA Good Riding to You! Jim .

You should copyright "Grandkid Fleet" - everyone should be as lucky to have such a good set of GPs. That's what I envision as our boys grow. Good on you Jim |

Will be 35 in May. Got my first bike at age 8. It was a 1971 SL70 rode the wheels off that thing. Then I had a ATC 200 with no suspension that I rode for a long time. Then when I was 13 I saved up and bought a 1978 IT 400! That's right a 400 2 stroke at 13. It's a wonder I am still alive. Lol
