My sons first ride on a "little" two stroke. I think he was a little surprised by the performance and now he has been hooked by a two stroke. We have all been there and now a new generation of riders ! Long live two strokes :!: :thumbup:

What a great little putt - thanks for sharing :thumbup:

You can mitigate the GoPro wind noise somewhat by wrapping it in something (many teddy bears have sacrificed their all for a windsock). Worth a Google for some of the things you can try. I've had pretty good success with foam too.

Thanks for the comments and do appreciate your advice, we have noticed a great deal of wind noise so we will work on that. What a great deal on the gopro kudos to Jeff for posting it, I never would have bought one for $300 plus (thats a set of tires) but for $125 I couldnt go wrong. :thumbup:

Marc ? (m in SC) I was reading your post to my son and my daughter was overhearing from the other room. She came in the room and repeated what she thought she heard, " He hasnt seen fat man ride like that since Canada " so I was lmfao. I just thought I would share that. :lol: :lol: :lol:

possibly. the small CB signals are very similar to the kawi ones in initial appearance. the ds7/r5 signals IMHO are really nice looking. Too bad i dont have any left or id sent the set i had.
