That sucks. I did that once! and actually learned from it I still carfully check the crank oriantation every time. at leased you noticed before you bolted it all together I didnt intill I tried to install the crank gear.

Haha brutal. It came back apart ok. I used the loc tight retaining compound and was worried it would be tight. Definitely a mistake I will never make again.

This seems to work better


Got the rear suspension all rebuilt and she's rolling again.  Even had a little help!

Thanks for sharing that. Made my day.   To many aren't willing to laugh about stuff like that.  I'm one that thinks it's hilarious.   

How old are the little ones?

Have to laugh at it or its stops being fun.  The boys are 2 and 5.  I got the 5 year old a JR50 for his birthday.  He's already got his first oil/filter change under his belt.  They both love working on bikes just have to keep a close eye on the hammers.  Everything looks like a nail to those guys.

The little ones are fun.   And their little hands  polish between spokes better than mine.

Mine are 3yrs and other is 3 months

Pretty much the same age spread.  It gets wild once they start talking to each other.

Has anyone tried the eBay silicone radiator hoses?

[sandblaster]

I've ran them on my 500 and a 250 with no problems.

the silicone hoses have better flow at the inside and in blue color it looks so amazing factory...

I'm so jealous.  I wish I could afford one of those new fangled electric bikes for my 4 year old.  Some day...

I got the jr off of Craigslist. Took a while but I found a good deal. If you ask the little guy what kind of a bike he rides he says 2 stroke only 2 stroke.
