    They can be a bit twitchy (yes I know a very technical term)

    But overall a lot of fun

    The Track is they way to go and the kids love to ride along side other riders in a safe & controlled enviroment.
    hae grantman.....if he says its twitchy ive got a streering damper for daytona 2's that works good
    chuck norris's calender goes from march 31st to april 2nd

    Hi Dellorto
    He more meaning its not as stable
    His XR70 is sooo easy to ride
    very smooth power

    so the daytona a little harder and he is still getting used to it

    Cheers
    though

    Hi Scooter,

    These bikes are great for small kids and big kids.
    My 6yr old grandaughter is learning to ride mine.
    As has been posted in plenty of other threads, they are not designed for puttering round the backyard like a 4 stroke. They really play up.
    After they have been 'run in', they need to be thrashed in a big open space.
    The Go-Kart track at Mt Wellington is the ideal place.
    The kids need to learn about safety too. Wearing the right protective gear is important.
    They are a great learning tool for further development by kids, into bigger race bikes.
    Valentino Rossi started racing on a pocketbike as a kid.

    suggestion: for littler timid kids, get some foam earplugs in them and their helmet on before you start the bike the first time they are near it. Once you start it you will see what I mean - even my wife took a step back! This will hopefully get them past their fear of it much quicker.

    I had a mate just buy that exact bike after i told him you wont get much for $199.00 and he didnt listen. They look really cool from a good couple meters back but when you look close im not sure it will last long. In this case it didn't, coil stopped working within 30 min of riding. And broken foot pegg but i think that was his fault.
