This kid gonna be one to watch, he also an inspiration to youngers and olders his manors, his will, he's got a real good head on his shoulders and at such a young age he gone be a really good role model to keep ppl out of gang crime and to follow your dreams and have fun. From UK I wish I had a friend like him before I entered the trap cycle of crime. Now I'm older I can look back and see what was wrong with my growing up but this young lad got so many right things going for him, big up young star!!

[@djdaweerdo937]

This was nice to watch just felt positive and refreshing 👏🏾

[@Deathwept]

Love his mindset and perspective. 🙏🏻 Hope he lives a long life, and gets to fulfill his dreams. You can tell he’s special just by the way he influences others around him. Young and Old they all have such an admiration for him, his spirit, and the way he carries himself. This is what hero’s look like in real life, they influence others in positive ways, they inspire, and they’re passionate. He’s definitely a difference maker. Not only in his streets, but in life in general. ✊🏻

Lil dude, listen. When you can get a license do it, then go buy one of the street legal motocross bikes so your legal on the road. The Crf-450L is what I’m on. It’s same as race CRF450R just has all the legal stuff and a cat. Get yourself legal too ride on the street. It saves a lot of hassle. Good riding bro.

[@Evergreen1400]

I agree. I think this young man has tons of talent and cane do a lot of good things but I don’t like him running from the police and his mother thinking that’s just comedy, it’s obviously illegal he will eventually get in a lot of trouble and it’s very dangerous for everyone around. I just saw a video last week of an officer trying to pull a dude over on the bike the officer wasn’t trying to chase the guy the officer didn’t go over the speed limit and called off the chase as soon as the guy on the bike started running at high speed the bike took off at 100mph even tho he wasn’t being chased or forced to evade like that and right up the road the dude on the bike T boned a car making a legal turn. The guy on the bike was killed instantly the officer who had just politely asked him to stop and to pull over had to now clear traffic as his dead body laid in the street. The innocent driver of the car was also injured since they got hit by a 100mph bike.

[@georgef1176]

@Riley Senn, hopefully he sees this and takes our advice, honestly it’s dumb not too get legal. I got in trouble at his exact age on my 400ex. Not worth it. with today’s on/off road bikes being pretty much motocross bikes with cats and lights. There’s been crackdown starting with these guys ridding in citys. All ya gotta do is plate up and your good. It’s Just common sense too avoid trouble and keep the ride going.
