Hammer, the 12 bar is from www.50stunt.com but it is one dangerous peace of equipment. it ends up razor sharp so when you wreck it's like having a knife swinging at you. If he is stuntin' the bike they can be a lot of fun, but for an anti looping device nothing is better than a rear brake...If your son's bike is a little automatic like the crf I would get him the rear hand brake kit from 50stunt, to help him learn brake control.

Kc. thanks for the info. Son is 9 and trying to explain rear brake control is like talking to the wall. Might have to check that hand brake out as well. And yes its the same bike |

Hey Hammer
I can attest to the 12 bar's danger...... I witnessed it cut, and rip KC's left pant leg completely off him around 3 weeks ago.... It was awesome... Only because for some reason KC doesn't wreck very much..... Only when he's showing off for my wife..... Whats up with that Larry????????? |

Mikeyp, I would have to admit that the 50 was the best motorcycle money I have ever spent...It keeps us from being stupid on the streets with the big bikes and we can do all the crazy stuff we want at a relatively slow speed and a lot less expensive and lighter bike.
JJ speakin' of showin' off for the ladies I believe this is you tryin' to get my wifes attention.

"To me a wheelie means your NOT in control. or at fully in control."
Once you get to the point where you can balance them, you'll never feel more in control of your bike than when you are wheelying. Especially when you get to the point where you can steer on the back wheel. |

My dad showed me on a 1974 honda 125, when I was 8. Got the bike for my birthday, 25 years ago on the 24th. |

I have said it before, so far, in 9 years, the only time the front wheel leave the ground, is under accelreation.....never tried to put it up, and hold it there....
