    any good dirt boys shouls use both, you tend to use much more rear brake off road i have found, i drag the brake alot on big dirt bikes, to get the back to settle up,

    offroad skills transfer very well on on road, its a good way to get ride time up alot more cheaply than doing trackdays, weight transfer and sliding etc do not change form road to dirt,

    yes, you learn how to start, that is why the ex motocrossers like Choppa, Jared Love adn the rest are good at starts, MX you need to be on your game,

    that is my advantage at road racing coming from 125's I learnt you have to start well.
    I love it tho im not into doing massive jumps just flattish circuits I dont mind rises and small jumps but im not into 40 foot high bad boys like out Hairy Hills
