I felt the same when I got mine, I am 52 and never have found a hobby that makes me smile this much....there is learning curve but once that is overcome then the real fun begins

My buddy has one and I love riding the thing! Definitely needs some sort of suspension on it though. His bike is in stock form, but he did buy a stage 1 kit for it. That was a new open air filter, new exhaust (straight piped like you did), better carb and bigger jets for it. He also removed the governor on it as it would only max out at maybe 18mph or so. But with that setup, it cruises much faster and runs much better, but the exhaust is definitely way too loud with the straight pipe setup. He ended up putting a generic muffler on it and that helped but it's still fairly loud. But yeah, they are fun to blast around on. I use to have a Kawasaki KLX110 pit bike that was modded out for a bigger rider and it was a blast! Wish I never got rid of that thing! I'd much rather ride a pit bike than the mini bike because of the suspension and rideability of it, but I'll take anything over nothing lol.

Do you remember what wire number you used to weld those foot pegs with? Is it Flux core wire or is it mig wire? I'm new to welding so forgive me for the stupid questions. The way you welded those pegs on was like melting butter and the weld was PERFECT. Great video buddy. 👍

Right on! Yeah gotta let them figure out the physical world for themselves right? My youngest probably spends 2 hours every single day carving with knives and axes. When he started, he did get a few cuts here and there but after a while they figure it out and his knife skills are really impressive. Thank you so much. Cheers from Canezuala 😆👍

The centrifugal clutch will burn up after two or three rides then if things slips like crazy, you have to take the clutch apart and sand it down with some like 80 grit sandpaper you got to keep doing that every couple rides
