Title: New addition to the stable... Post by: Jumptship on August 27, 2009, 09:24:23 AM got this for the kids. I got the riding gear with it so it will have to do until I can get some "manly" gear for the boy!
Looks good in the garage next to the Monster! (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2562/3861305415_e38d76a6d2_b.jpg) Even the daughter got a turn...

Title: Re: New addition to the stable... Post by: Jumptship on August 27, 2009, 10:36:25 AM son is 4 and daughter is 6. Wife was a little apprehensive at first til I showed her how the throttle limiter works and the training wheels. Of course the smiles on the kids faces helped too!
I got an excellent deal on the bike. I was kind of browsing ebay and had a coworker tell me about his neighbor selling this one. It is a 2007 PW50 with about 10 hours of use and got it for about half of price new with the gear. Title: Re: New addition to the stable...

It's a real blast to watch the next generation get the spark for toys!!!

Title: Re: New addition to the stable... Post by: myssrhl on August 27, 2009, 06:08:56 PM The mostest awesomest thing for a young kid....Get plenty of pictures now to pass out at the Indy GP when he is on the pole..
But-- Oh my do we know the PW's... you need a Yamahopper moped rear gear set ( that will gear her down )... pull the oil injection hose and put a small ball bearing or did a BB work then pre mix....there was more but I forget now... My kids ran with Bubba Stewart on a pw50, ahh oh Ricky Carmichael. ( the older son on a 60 Kaw)..and others Fun time for Dad.. Title: Re: New addition to the stable...

Rode something similar at the neighbor's house when I was a kid but I ran it into a rock wall! Opps! ;D It got fixed and so did I! Kids toys are so neat these days!
