This is nasty and not nice. Wan't a good rider with balance and control? Take the seat off his bike.

 

Okay maybe that was over the top but heres what happened to me. Dad was going to buy me a bike in stead of wages for working for him for the summer holidays. Walked into the Honda shop and I said I'll take that thank you very much, was a brand new 1973 Honda CR125 Elsinore THE bike of the day, dad laughed and said no not for a first time bike. Here I'll get you this , twas a TL125 trials bike he said you will learn balance and control and braking and all that and besides all the top motocrossers of the day started on trials bikes. Well I hated him at the time for it but damn it if he was not rite. Still have that bike sure it was a play bike at the time and still is but I can put an experienced rider on it and watch him/her make a fool out of themselves. And thats like 7 to 10 hp.
