Not sure if this should be in here or in off road?

Just thought Id stick up a few pics of a race at the weekend.
It was here in Ireland but was lovely and sunny all day:eek:

Many people have them in NZ or whats the story?

prob not all that big here, most of them are chinese and fall to bits inside the shipping container

Ahhh ye they have that same problem in Ireland aswell unless you pick up a good one. Or like be buy a half decent one and replace the broken bits with top quality gear like my engine which cost more than the whole bike to start with. But it had the most evil powerband and constantly tried to hurt me:clap: Was actually great fun though

Big in Auckland there is a series and all... bout 30-40 or so members.... They used to race with us in a minimotard class on kart tracks with cut slicks up until 3 years back.

Yep huge fun when theres a bit of bar bashing going on:innocent:
Ive had one of the top mx riders in Ireland say that my bike is harder ride than his 450. They are super twitchy because of the small wheels but great fun

I've just bought me a XR50.

Had it about 10 hours and crashed twice already. Once was at work on a painted floor. Wet tyres plus painted floor equals everybody has a laugh. I walked awy unscathed...

Then...

Tried to pull wheelies on it. If you keep the throttle open when shifting to second, the front comes up quickly... Too quickly as it seems, since I was outside and bit the seal, it flipped before I even knew it, lol...

Ah well, just picked it up and carried on. If that were the KTM, I'd be a very sad man right now...

Also tried a few rolling burnouts but I need to sort my balance out some, lol...
