Well with Cody's hometown race a week away, we hammered the course today. 50 laps(25 miles) non stop

The boy is plum wore out

I snapped a few pictures but its was dark in the woods but I got a few that look pretty cool.

The suspension is working killer and he is hitting things WFO

Posted by: Pappy

he would hit a log in the trail and ride for 5 or 6 feet on the 1 front wheel...never lifted

Posted by: Pappy

My brother showed up to test out his wifes warrior, he jumped in behind Cody on the track. It took Cody 1 lap to pull away and pass him, ineffect lapping his 26 year old uncle

Posted by: Pappy

He was ripping it up. I am very satisfied with the 90 and his riding ability is getting awesome!

Posted by: Pappy

Well, i have my fingers crossed for wood at next sundays race.

Posted by: Pappy

Lil'man was feeling depressed because his lil cousin couldnt ride....so we slipped up and bought a Kawi 50

Posted by: Pappy

We broke out the alpha sport 50, ryans eton 50 and the kxf 50 and had one hell of a 50cc flat track (as flat as you can get in west virginia

)

Ryan was wfo and smoked his older brother in a 20 lap shoot out

Its great to see how Cody is getting better and better every week. I wish him the best of luck next week

Posted by: Cody_300ex

Go get em Cody!!!!! I wish I had a place like that around here to ride!

Posted by: lol

hahaha pappy u r one he!! of a fun dad

my family doesnt support me with the quads as much as u do with ur sons except i am thankful that they let me have a quad in the first place

Posted by: logan

hey, thats really kool... now all he needs are some tires and rims, if he gets that i might be up for a trade j/k

Posted by: redroost85

Dang, look at ole Codeman go!

Pappy, you best keep up with your riding or the boy is liable to put down a beating on the old man, lol!

Looking good Cody, let'er rip bud.

Posted by: Pappy

oh i can still get away from him

he only weighs 86 pounds so a healthy shot of roost to his chest backs him off a few quad lengths

Posted by: redroost85

(old man's laugh) Heh, heh, heh...I knew ya still had some tricks up your sleeves there Pappy!

Nice.

I bet you would throw at your own kid in a Father-Son game if he was crowding the plate

Posted by: mxmike17

Well how did he do?

Sweet ride and those pics are great.

Posted by: Pappy

he did great!

he got the holeshot hands down and had a huge lead at the start. 2 teen age girls mis-directed him about a mile in and it cost him several positions

he rode clean, even helping a fellow rider get unstuck and took 4th.

he can now race the 11-12 year old class but he opted to stay in his class for this race. he would have earned 2nd in the other class

Posted by: Pappy

finally finished up the front rims and installed the tires etc

Posted by: Pappy

i think it looks much better

Posted by: Pappy

i know it handles better!

Posted by: Pappy

welp, time to load the bikes up for tomarrows race

Posted by: TheFontMaster

Tires and rims look good pappy. Good luck at the races!

Posted by: Cody_300ex

Pappy are you not going to put extended a-arms on this one? Or does it already handle good enough?

Posted by: Pappy

actually we put wheel spacers on it to see what the wider stance would do before having to dish out the cash for a arms and an axle. cody say's it handles fine in its current state

Posted by: Rebelrider4OOex

the tires are Maxxis and yes we will continue to run them as they work great.

we went with reinforced rims to save weight. i didnt do the rears to keep rotational weight down due to the small HP numbers on these small engines

Posted by: APPLE1

Pappy, which maxxis tire are you running? what size?
i have been looking for some for my sons 90. He races mx
and the stock tires bounce him like crazy.

Posted by: Pappy

i will find out what the model of tires are

the size is 18 x 9 x 8

Oh. That's REALLY good! You better watch out Pappy! How long are the races that he runs?

Posted by: Pappy

they usually run 20-25 minutes races on courses that are around 1 mile long
