Christ gaz how does he hang on to the 450, have you had a crack on these new bikes
Go like s@$t out of a shangai!!!!

yer i have a 2008 crf 450 here is mine we go out riding all the time as we back onto the bush but i think i am gettig a bit old for it now i have trouble keeping up with him it used to be the other way around plus mitch has built his own mx track down the the back paddock has a 40 foot table top mitch our son has been riding since he was 2 he loves the new 450

get him out racing it gaz
though id say he wouldnt be able to race the 450 as a junior
would have to go senouirs

yer he used to race and did well then he had a break and now just likes bush riding one of his mates had a bad fall broke his back racing think it put him off abit we have set both bikes up for trail riding now which r great out in the bush

yeah seen that with your tyre chioce and the bar srub shields
mate theres nothing like sharing your passion with your son hey
thats the stuff kids remember

yer paul we have a ball out there just the son and me i took off the 19 rim and fitted a 18 rim with a taller tyre and put a 50 tooth sprocket on it now its a great bike in the bush before i did that it was a pig
