I remember when I saw this video 3 years ago. Last week I bought a dirt bike again and went out for a small drive today looking for obtacles. I came upon a small steep hill of only about 2m height near a construction site and all I did was driving it up and down over-and-over. Despite it didn’t look difficult/extreme at all, I found it really satisfying and challenging. It remembered me to this video. Took me 30 minutes to find this video again after 3 years, but it was worth it watching it again :)
Some call it a mid-life crisis. I call it a small reward after 25 years of consistent hard work and sacrifice.
Or just don’t get a wife and kid and live it up lol
I am 36, I got my first bike today. SPort touring bike. NExt year I want to go off-road because it just attracts me, this must be so much fun. Never too late to enjoy life! Better than be sorry and bury dreams...
BLACKSUN Lori Hows it going man, hope your enjoying riding man! have fun!
So true mate. I’m now 47 and enjoying the fruits of my hard labour after so many years. Never to old I say. Just wish my body felt as young as my mind 😂
You are mastering a part of dirt bike riding that has quickly become a lost art. But don't forget to grip it and rip it every once in a while.
Robert Crane next step is riding slow a bit higher in the rev range.. Instead of putting in 2nd , try reving 1st out a bit more.. Its definitely harder, but will tech good throttle control, so when you NEED power to get out of trouble you will have it and know how to actually put it to the ground and not just whiskey flip your bike..
In my opinion one of the best videos you’ve ever made. It gave me the same feeling I get when I ride with my dad. I love that you have shared your love of riding with your son. I can tell you he really appreciates it.
My dad and I also ride motorcycles together. We ride street bikes. My bike is a BMW S1000R and his is a BMW S1000XR.
As you said it’s a fantastic feeling to go out and ride with my dad and have every else in life fall away.
I’m 16 and have been riding for about 10 years, I still do what you were doing with training! Good job!
One my favorite videos so far. I bought a dual sport Honda CRF250L last September. I’ve experienced many of the same things: attempting the same small obstacles until I conquer them. Great vid, thanks for showing all the falls first, then the wins! That’s more like how life works!
I'm getting cold just by watching you fall into the water. (I love dirt biking)
same, it is -2 outside
same lol i HATE when you land in cold water
Gosh, this brings back so many memories! I rode dirt bikes for over 40 years starting with small "trail bikes" and quickly moving to Ossa, Husky, Suzuki, Yamaha, and ended up on a KTM. It all started as just fun and play but escalated, within a few months, into enduros and scrambles. As my two sons got old enough (4-6 years old) they started riding with me, both becoming very good riders. The last 20+ years I rode was mostly racing with my sons and grandsons. One of the last enduros I rode just a few years ago, had me, my son, and his son starting on the same row at an enduro (in different classes, of course). I remember sitting there waiting for our starting minute to come up, and thinking "Now how cool is this?" I quite literally wouldn't take any amount of money for the quality time spent with my sons and grandsons on dirt bikes. It is priceless to me, and to them I believe. I now ride street bikes with them and enjoy it almost as much. hang in there and keep riding with your son. It is one of the very best ways to stay close, and as an added bonus, help keep them out of trouble. Best regards. Fossil
Failures are only failures if we do not learn from them. The most successful people in the world tell us that failure is the foundation of success. Overcoming them, not giving up, and moving forward is what is important.
Steve Croy too true.
Dirt bikes for some people including me is like going fishing for others. I spent a lot of time fishing before I figured out it wasn't the fish I was after. It's the same with dirt bikes! I do have 42 years of riding and racing dirt bikes and the one thing I notice with new riders and riders returning to the sport is they don't focus ahead, instead they look right in front of the fender. I'm sure Jack will always remember all these times riding together. My daughter has been riding and racing with me for 6 years now and have bond that is priceless. Stay safe my friend!
Thinking about putting that yellow spring back in yet?
Francois Deshue hahahahaha
Let him do whatever he wants he paid 9grand you didn’t
Juan Rios no need to get heated, there’s always some friendly poking done in the two stroke community about power valve springs. Madjoker had no bad intention with his comment, and if it bugs you that someone would say something like he did, maybe you should go find a sport better catering to your attitude. I hear knitting can be quite calming to the nerves, I myself knit survival rope bundles when not holding my 300 on the pipe.
war pillow wtf
As a very wise (and very dangerous) friend told me years ago “the difference between a good shot and a bad is a thousand rounds”. This applies to anything we want to get good at. Excellent video!
One of your greatest videos! Really nice job with camera and voice over. Your talk gives me a lot to think about and it's one of the most important reasons why I follow you. You are special
I said the same thing to myself as I was watching this!
Really enjoying the deep videos lately ..an insight into life with advise seldom followed .
When I was a kid in Australia, I set out a trials track in the local creek bed. I used to deduct a point for everytime my foot touched the ground. I never had a clean run, but it was one of the most fun things I did. The old descend the floating surface, wheelstand up over the stump and once the bike was sitting on the sump, rock forward to slide off the other side and turn quick to get between the two big sharp rocks was terrifying until the day I finally beat it. The people in the house about quarter of a mile away would have heard me whoop. They certainly saw me limping back pushing a broken bike enough times. Good on you for your attitude.
I'm getting my first bike soon as an adult and it makes me feel better to see you wrecking too lol thanks for sharing this
Best advice is get a four stroke. Honda makes a good one. Crf 250f
Buy a used 2 stroke bike but not to used. Your height and weight come into factor on the engine size. @ 160~180 you should be looking at a 250cc. Run from 4 strokes unless you like to pay 3 times more to fix. CR250 FTW
Definitely not getting a 2 stroke lol I'm probably getting a crf230
John J Kelly congratulations
Mitchell 82 no such thing is a crf250f
i lived in California in the mid 90's, back during the Jeremy McGrath, Steve Lamson, Doug Henry on Team Honda days. Back when everything was 2 stroke. I have a RM50 and then a YZ60. Had to sell the bikes due to a move as my dad was in the Air Force. I now have a 5 year old son and I cannot wait for the day when I can teach him to ride and we can go on trails together. Love your channel, love the wholesome nature and look forward to interacting with my son the same way.
On the other hand at 71 with old injuries resurfacing, I find myself thinking of the things I wish I hadn't done.
Charles Shanafelt such as?
48 here... Me, too.
There is that. On the other hand, it helps build his inner strength and provides experiences of where he overcame his fears. That’s pretty valuable.
Best Wranglerstar video of all time! Thanks for sharing
As a old man in a Wheelchair do not regret the things you’ve done regret the things you have not done
In watching your videos i have realized that we have very similar backgrounds. I too was in commercial construction management for many years....today we run our own small renovations business. I have always enjoyed and appreciated the “right tool” for a given task. And related to this video, i too enjoyed several years of riding dirt bikes with my twin sons, just one on one time. Days riding, then cleaning and maintaining the bikes, grabbing lunch together (both on and off the trail). Great memories. Today my sons are 21. Both very close to the family, one even working full time in the renovations business with us. Its an amazing thing to see your son grow in knowledge, understanding, and skill in the trade work. He is quickly becoming a very skilled finish carpenter....with a good solid foundation in construction materials and procedures.
Anyway....thanks for sharing your life experience
You're making me want to start riding again.
What a great video. Jack will remember these times for life.
That looks like loads of fun. But also you'll never have to ride the mower again! :)
I don’t comment every single time, but I do watch every single video. This is one of my top five!! It is so much more than this dirt biking. It is about the way to approach life. Good for you, wranglerstar!!!!
I seldom have instances where I have to show how brave I am. Some think foolhardy is brave, it isn't. Some would say I was brave to climb mountains, but I wasn't. I took every precaution to make sure I would not fall off the mountain that the odds of it happening were less than dying driving to said mountain. Yet if you think about it, there are more instances where we missed a chance to show courage like when you don't say something when you know you should have is that courage? No of course not, but if you say something when it needs to be said, like if somebody's kid is getting in trouble, you need to say something to the kid's parents. It does take a certain kind of bravery to become involved and it happens more often than you may think, because we are not paying attention we miss the opportunities to really be brave.
What I think is funny is how as I grow up, my idols change and my goals change. Now I'm not old, I will be spending my 20th birthday at Army Basic Training. But in the next few years I'm trying to shape the future for my life and I've realized that where I look for my media and entertainment has a great influence on all of that. I'm proud to say that it's the men like you to whom I aspire to be like.
You need a Yamaha TW200 they are the perfect machine for you they are made for not going fast but to go through anything have incredible balance and traction and low seat height for technical terrain
Ahh yes, the tractor of all motorbikes👍
I just started to ride myself and I have a old xl600r and I focus on going slow and balance, I ride mostly 1at gear and i also go out and challenge myself, to go through obstacles slow and steady and challenge myself! And to be honest, it's the best thing I have done! I have 27 years road bike experience and this by far is the best! I try to ride at least 3 to 4 days a week and hit the power lines next to my home and practice balance and throttle control and it brings me great joy and also riding a vintage bike! Thanks for your video!
I love the bike videos I can't wait for a long dirt bike adventure God bless
I have ridden almost my entire life, since age 5 and I'm now 35. I have never been able describe why I love ridding as well as you just did.
In this short video you captured all the reasons and made an enjoyable video to go along with it. I can not wait to teach and enjoy ridding with my children.
PS: Carry more weight over the rear tire when doing creek crossings, the front tire should have almost no weight on it to avoid catching underwater obstacles .
Cody, you should take some BJJ classes, at the very least, some hand to hand combat classes. I don't claim to know you very well, but I think maybe something like archery may help as well. Just my two cents....
Is that a woodburning dirtbike?!?
Peter Moore it's smoking alot because he's not riding a 2 stroke like it should be ran, you don't see a chain saw smoking when running full thottle
Thank you. This was a great lesson. I do this using my boat. I have a bout in our port that I’ll spend a hour every once in a while approaching fro various angles and circling just to feel how the boat reacts to different currents and winds. It builds my feel for the boat and my confidence. My friends marvel at my skills at docking the boat which is easier than going around the bouy. I wish other boaters did this. They are hard to watch dock their boats.
What is this? And what does the title have to do with anything?
I have been riding for almost 13 years now on Monday it will be 13 but I have learned a lot about the sport and bikes learn your bike get comfortable with it don’t rush anything next ride in the mud and snow it will make you a better rider it helps you learn to balance and control your bike. Always make a challenge for yourself and keep going over it practice balance pull up slowly and stop and try and hold it once you learn the basics and learn your bike and every once and a while challenge your skill level make yourself uncomfortable some times it makes you a better rider wrecks are a part of riding that also can make you a better rider it makes you learn what you can and cannot do
conquering fears is worth it. riding slowly is like shooting/hitting the target every time with proper effort instead of unloading a clip and connecting some.
I like your words... my escape is on a mule in the back country wilderness .. as a team with a destination to achieve .. and like you and your son my grandson joins me from time to time and its something we can do together .. with out all the noise and electronics or video games .. seeing the world at 3mph does something for your mind.. and fills my soul
I started on a 600cc dirt bike. I quickly learned the riskiest part of dirt biking is your perspective. Be worried and youll fail. Focus on making it through, and you will do well. Bikes are fun, keep it that way.
Should have gone with a 4 stroke for the riding you are doing
Chris J the bike he chose is arguably the best and mostly widely used bike for the category of woods riding. So no, a 4 strike is not always better.
Loren Jensen agreed it is a widely used bike and I agree that 4 strokes are not always better. But I still think it would have been a better option for the riding in that area and his riding style. Gas is always easier to find than gas and oil in a situation where you run out far from the house.
Chris J it’s not hard to pack oil. I live relatively close to Cody, to each their own but I would have made the same purchase.
What four stroke would you recommend? I plan to go even slower and doing a lot of extremely steep ground. I’m looking at the Yamaha TW200.
Naw. 2 stroke is at the true heart of this sport! You can love your 4 stroke but don't tell me what I should ride!
Cody, you're doing the off road version of what I've been telling new street riders for years. Anyone can learn to ride fast, and I'll be the first to admit fast can be fun. But at then end of the day, I put my trust in the one who can ride slow. Keep up the good work.
I am curious why you chose a 2 stroke if this was your style of riding, wouldn't a 4 stroke with its low end torque have been a better choice or do intend to "rip it up" after mastering your balance etc?
Modern two strokes have scads of torque, very lightweight also.
Two strokes also are "less prone" to stalling at lower RPMs compared to most four strokes.
the opposite is true,4 strokes can be lugged but 2 strokes typically don't make power until higher rpm.
Cambo, the modern factory enduro engines are very different than what you may have experienced with older ones. I currently own a 450 4 stroke enduro and wish I would have gone for either ktm or husky 2 stroke. Less moving engine components, lighter framework, easier to pick up too.
That may very well be true! I am aware they have always been lighter due to less cycles and parts required
I love it! This calm, honest and real voice.. perfect video to show others how enduro can be fun without getting in danger or showing off.. its not just about speed and jumping. Its also getting out, having fun while surrounded by nature, its an adventure.. you have fun man, cheers!
Modern day men need to face that which they fear the most! AWESOME!!!
I agree with the idea of getting rid of those things that fear you. It makes one feel strong and powerful to overcome obstacles.
Hour a day, you'll be rebuilding that engine every year to two. Looks like fun though. Maybe a 4 stroke next time.
Nope,
Hour a day, he will need a top end every other month.
Need to give it a bit every now and then to clean out the pipe to !!!
Tim Z I know this may seem super precautionary but I rebuild my yz125 every 40 -60hrs to prevent taking out a cylinder. Reason being is it's only 120 dollars for a rebuild kit and takes 1hr to rebuild
That thing can go like 200hrs when ur putting around like that
Using what you have, a great experience and a tool for teaching your Son, love it. I’d ride with you any day, Husky FE 501, I’m 50 and returning to riding as well from 14 years away , ridding is part of me and brings joy and pain, but it is always teaching me new things and helping me overcome that which I fear. Keep riding... oh Ms. W needs one too....
The music isn't Jonny Cash. It's his song but who recorded that version?
Rock Automatik yeah this is the second video he's used it on, still hasn't told us who it is...
Yeah I'd rather hear Cash
DJ Abreu Someone covering Johnny cash is like China made tools, it's not quite as good
My parents have 40 acres and I used it as my playground in the 90s for my CR 250 and the land never recovered fully. It now has wash outs where I had made repeat passes on a make shift trail. I see the beginnings of that in your areal shots. Sure was a good time but I ended up at the motor Cross track after my dad said the horses would starve if I kept it up. Everything is a trade off. Great memories.
As a rain hail and shine lifelong motorcyclist - welcome to the family. My only issue with dirt bikers is that they ruin our reputation because they're loud and wreck peoples weekends and holidays by destroying the peace of nature with the sound of angry mosquitos. So put a good muffler on it and don't ruin our already damaged reputation!
You mean like listening to all those poorly built loud Hardlies.
I love riding a dirt bike
Riding with family and friends is even better!!
Watching the young riders gain skills and overcome technical terrain is moving.
Sometimes the most heroic things a man does are things that you don't consider; like making your wife feel safe, loved and special, or raising your child to be good, honest and considerate against the tide of bad ideas that bombard us through the media. These are not easy tasks.
Ian, those manly traits don't make for entertaining videos.
Yea, I was more responding to Cody's narrative than making script suggestions :)
LOL. Looks like a blast. I used to have a Honda CT90. It was so much fun. With the ultra low gearing, it simplified these types of maneuvers. Gravel used to scare me. One of my friends explained that I needed to loosen up, and let the back tire do what it was going to do. He said to quit fighting it! When I finally relaxed, I learned to enjoy gravel riding. I actually grew to enjoy the feeling of the back tire drifting back and forth. Though it drifted, it never went out from under me unless I did something dumb.
Ever tried a trials machine ?
i was thinking he same thing. i think he wouod enjoy that more.
until it is time to rip it... then he does have the right bike : ]
Dude I have to say as a rider and racer I wish you and your son all the best, the stuff that you guys are doing is the best kind of practice for riding, going slow and understanding the bike is the best thing to build a smooth riding style. One piece of advice I would give is get some boots trust me its worth it. Hope you have many more days of enjoying your machine 🤘
Looks fun and nice time riding.
Seems a bit sluggish? Do you use high octane fuel and is your mix the right ratio? Just wondering?
AllaroundNbackagain interesting take I must admit. The bike is fine
rltkktlr not following you. It sure is smoking.
Its a 2 stroke. Mixed fuel. They are supposed to smoke some.
Quarlow 12 - that’s odd. None of our two stroke engines smoke like that ....
You better check your mix.
So true about slow speeds. After I started riding a Harley and learned how to control it at 10mph and under using a combination of the brake, clutch, and throttle my handling of a dirt bike completely changed. Once had a motorcycle cop tell me if you can't control a big bike in 1st gear you have no business running one in 5th.
i think this is cool, but wasnt this supposed to be a way to hang out with jack? if you're spending an hour a day without him it seems counterproductive. just my 2 cents.
Great video, I too have re-entered the sport with my 15 year old son. I bought a 300 2 stroke for just the same benefits as you, they are almost impossible to stall and thrive doing slow work or lugging around. I enjoy the light weight as I find my self picking it and myself up quite a bit. I’m 54 and I found that on our first real single track ride I developed arm pump in the first 20 minutes and this lead to some serious whisky throttle as I could not even feel that I was twisting the throttle! After stretching and increasing my calcium and magnesium intake the pump seems to be less every time I go out. I envy your riding area, I just have about an acre to practice on with out having to load the bikes and travel to our riding area. But i can do it everyday here. Thanks for the great video and good luck!
youre riding a dirtbike around a field bro....... get a grip
waderedsox Everyones gotta learn somewhere mate!
You’re the one who needs to get a grip bro. World enduro champion Toni Bou started in is acre sized backyard.😂
Cody, I saw this post and because I have been following and enjoying and learning from you and your family for over a year and reading comments, I knew there would be those sowing strife. I was amazed they went easy on you than other videos.
Enjoy yourself and work on those fears.
Love and blessings to you and your family,
Jim
By the way Dwayne Johnson is really offended right now @ 3:00
What you said about conquering what you’re afraid of, you’re 100% correct. If I were you I’d look at it like this, when you first bought the homestead, you were scared, you didn’t know if it would work out but you took the chance and you did it because it made you happy and the only way to know if it’ll work is to try it. When I first started racing 17 years ago, I am now 21 years old, my biggest fear was racing fast next to someone, because you don’t know what they’re next move could be and they could make a mistake at any moment. Well as I grew older I was struggling to do well in races because of this fear. My dad couldn’t figure it out, I was faster than any other rider in my class during practice, but come race time I was almost getting last. He finally figured out what my issue was and sat me down, and said this, “I see you’re struggling with being near other riders, when you come out of that gate put your feet on your pegs and dive in to the group, the best way to be away from everyone else is to be in front.” So when my first main event came up that day, I got first in the holeshot and led every lap all the way to the finish line. I’ll never forget that day.
I just cringed @ 2:45 the exhaust hittinh the stone xq
Johnie Blaze yep. Lmao me too
Know what? I bet if he breaks it, he can fix it and get back on the trail. You can see how easily he loses confidence when he fails, (sarcasm)(I had to put that because the world is so full of literalists).
craig horton I don't think the world is full of literalists lmao your sarcasm just looks like normal dialogue
Your sense of having fun with little things like circles around your wood piles is awesome
Red spring!!!!
Back when I was married 12 years ago, my wife and I got a dirt bike and a 4 wheeler so we could having something of shared interest to spice up our lives and go to off road parks with other members of her family who also had off road vehicles. Several months later, my wife left me for another guy... and the vehicles didn't get ridden much thereafter because with my living on one income, I often had to work weekends to make ends meet... which took time away from such recreational pleasure. The vehicles sat in my garage unused for 10 years until I decided to just give them away to a guy down the street who knew more about how to fix and maintain them... so I could have more space in my garage. They were fun to ride when we had them...might have kept them if I had my own land to ride them on. It is amazing some of the obstacles that the expert riders choose to tackle at the off road parks... which were way beyond what our vehicles were capable of handling...if we had the nerve to push them to those limits. Thankfully, no injuries came from our novice riding experiences...never got clobbered by other riders who were often flying out from around blind corners and hills. I usually chose the path of least resistance as there was sometimes a bit of competition to get from point A to point B the fastest and not get left behind. To just play around in a mud hole and risk the bike dying on me or getting submerged and filthy all over... wasn't my cup of tea. Kick starting the bike wasn't always easy to get it running again... that was my worst fear... having it die on me.
99% of your problem is that you're trying to ride a 2 stroke speed machine like it's a 650 four stroke thumper. Sure, you /can/ do it, but you're cutting yourself off at the knees. You're making it far harder than it has to be and eliminating the opportunity to really learn what can be done with equipment more suited to the task.
Andrew Vliet ... very true.... the exhaust tells a lot.... it's dying to be to rode hard...
Bike needs to be opened up from time to time for sure. But these slow skills will pay off tenfold.
Give Cody a few months of riding like this. He can add speed later when the confidence grows.
Many obstacles do require much more momentum for sure. But without good skills throwing oneself at an obstacle and hoping for the best is a great way to spend money and break things.
These 300 two strokes are pretty good at lugging, watch Graham Jarvis, of course its not made to be lugged the entire time it being riden (risk fouling plugs, filling power valves with spooge and having your pipe leak all over your swing arm). If cody pins it down a field every 20 minutes he should be gold!
I got a KTM 300 XCW at age 46, fist dirtbike in over 20 years and I couldn't agree with you more about it being a great decision to get a bike and the reasons why. Wish I would have done it 10 years earlier. Anxiously awaiting your top end rebuild video 6 months from now.
Keep it up but bring ur boy with u he will learn faster and in 6 months training like u do... U can enter harescrables and and will be good trail rider
Challenge yourself and you grow even in failure. Outstanding way to go that extra bit that makes you grow stronger.
Where is the superman seat grab?
Knack knack double back flip?
I enjoy all your videos. After watching for quite awhile I didn't know you were into dirt bikes. I used to race motocross and ride trails all the time when I lived in the country. Now I ride motorized bicycles in town. The last dirt bike I owned was a Husqvana and I want another Husky. I love watching Graham Jarvis dominate the extreme enduro world. Hey keep riding, you'll be as good as Graham.
He never reads these.
Suprise Surprise... guess who hearted you hahaha
Lol
oof
Keith Curry. nice name bud
Keith Curry. guess I forgot. I changed my profile name. my last name is the same
All those falls reinforce to me that atv's are far superior
@Wranglerstar - I wanted to thank you for this video.
This is not a video about dirt biking. It's a video about confused young men in an era where they feel as if they have no purpose. The pacing and tone is fantastic. Thank you, for this one.
Hey there Cody, if you haven't already you should check out Graham Jarvis training on RUclips .. He has insane balance on the bike and a nice bike too 😉..
Elliot Bollard also try Chris Birch :)
Graham is awesome
I couldn't agree more, dirt biking is a great way to challenge yourself. Also a lot of fun for exploring and finding remote places. It's as close to meditation as I ever get. Great video.
poor two stroke. stuck 8n first and second gear. putsing around...... lol
Thats a misconception. If its jetted right and using high quality fuel/oil it can run all day clean putting about. Its an enduro bike on top of that,..built for that kind of riding.
George Rufo III. lol. no 2 stroke in the world is intended for low rpm use
So at no time in the engines life can it operate at low rpm without ruining itself? I had the 250 version of that bike and rode it in the woods for years at low rpm with no problems.
George Rufo III. ha. no. that's not what I'm saying.
I didn’t pay attention but if it’s a 300 they love slow riding as well as being ripped
Quick tip... when doing figure eights or tight turns, turn your head in the direction your turning and look at the spot your going towards. You will be amazed how much easier it is. Also don’t be afraid to work the clutch and rear brakes to slow it down when doing tight turns.
Anyone who rides motorcross like me will get triggered that he has got such a good bike but can’t ride it
A lot of experts in the comments, a lot of experts,
it's spelled MOTOCROSS and that is an ENDURO bike.
3:30 Don't sell yourself short Cody. Every time you answer the call and grab that Mystery Ranch pack you are a hero. Every time you put out a fire that is a victory.
“that rock no longer makes me afraid”
your profile pic only makes the quote better
where's my rooptoff yes indeed
He should see the rock I'm scared of lol. It's about 5 times the size of his rock and sticking out of an almost vertical incline. I made it over it once on my dirt bike but on my '90 model Honda Fourtrax 300 I can ride a wheelie over it, lol.
Hey Brother, I used to ride motocross and found myself enjoying woods riding quite a bit more. Its the personal challenges in the woods that made it a bit more interesting for me. These exercises you are doing are genuinely the best way to become most competent on your bike. The water crossing made me chuckle as I recall riding up here in Canada in the spring when the trails are all flooded and my buddies are on 4wd quads having a hoot and I'm struggling trying to gingerly ride through deep water and slick muck. I learned it was far easier to hug the tank tight with my legs and roll on the power through it and let the bike do the work, then my buddies couldn't catch me on the bike ahaha. Also just finished Mrs. Wranglerstar's and your book modern homesteading. I really enjoyed the read, I found it inspiring and also reassuring that my soon to be wife and are on the right track. Keep up the good work and god bless
Aleks
Nice Video
I hope this doesn't come across wrong, but I love how simple your channel is. I often find myself envy others who live in nice quiet rural areas. I myself have mostly lived in city/rural areas, and feel that if I grew up somewhere nice and quiet, that I'd enjoy going outdoors more often as well as appreciate the outdoors more.
Your falling from trying to go so slow.
nowfucker He's improving by intentionally going slow. And thanks to your handle, no one cares what you think.
You can't be serious
Beautiful video. I rode dirt bikes for years and I found that it made my street bike skills that much better. Thanks for the post.
I thing you have to much 2-stroke oil in tour gasoline
Since he bought it new, he has to break in the engine. Which means running a richer fuel mixture. Not sure how many hours he has on it; just my guess.
When I see your bike, it reminds me of a guy that used to live near me. He had a husky 490 and it was impressive! He would ride it across a train track tressell on one wheel. It still kind of blows my mind.
It was those type events that cemented my love for motorcycles.
You are riding a two stroke like a four stroke. Can we get back to homesteading? Perfect balance turn the bike off and sit on it. If you can do that without falling you have balance.
I done the same to push myself after breaking my back to test my mental state and see how much my body can handle now, I skateboarded for most of my years and had a fear of losing my physical abilities and I done this to push the envelope on my recovery and I have had the time of my life.
A 4 wheeler is more useful and just as much fun. Just my 2 cents.
Big Al until you ride a tight trail and your gonna be wishin you only had 2 wheels
Damon Jones or you bring a chainsaw and make the trails widder
Damon Jones lol, quadtards...
JeepWoodsFun smh😂 just ride a dirtbike already
As a former 'Jack', I can tell you doing this kind of thing with my dad (we bought, repaired and rode bikes) means he ain't chewing my ear all day long about small details. Looking back, I saw a different side of my dad that some of my siblings never saw. I learned more about how to be a man from our 'playing' than i did from all the ear-chewing. The ear-chewing taught me how to do things, so I suppose it was good too.
Unsubscribed, there are all kinds of dirt bike channels, that wasn't what I signed up to watch on this channel!
DEX Oh no! A few videos that aren't custom shot for you. Bye, bye!
I'm glad I came across your RUclips, I love the way you do your videos and the realness behind it. Because of you I think I am ready to creat my own RUclips channel and begin the rest of my life and be happy. Thank you
WOW, I have not watched in about a month now, and u am going to have to unsubscribe. This is no longer a Modern Homestead page! I would take ideas from your videos to help my homestead but now it is a waist of time even to have your videos pop up on my feed. I will stick with the people that want to help and not just talk at you.
Darrell Thompson bye 👋
see ya tomorrow 👋
Darrell Thompson 😂👋🏽
I can't believe Darrell and his dreadful spelling are leaving...sob sob.
Entirely up to you Cody, but I've geared down to 12/52 sprockets. My riding buddies have since followed suit. (250 & 300 ktms & gasgas)
How often are you flat out in top gear? We barely ever open the bikes up to top of top gear, so don't miss the top speed. (Plus we road race for the high speed buzz.)
We found a huge amount more control available in the slow technical stuff. Let's you really tighten up those practice turns.
Also practice those tight turns sitting down, keeping yourself upright and pushing the bike down. Relax. Get right up on the seat by the tank and soon enough you'll be balancing doing circles on and off the steering stops! (Low side foot eventually comes right up high off the pegs).
This will seriously help your firewood slaloms, turning the bike seamlessly under yourself while sitting down.
Don't be fooled by everyone who says you have to stand up when riding, each position has its time and place :)
Worst enduro rider
I'm a novis at dirt bikes too and like you I've riden with guys much more experienced than me and it's a challenge .
Thanks for sharing!
You may very well be either the worst rider I’ve ever seen or you’re a comedian
Enjoy the bike tho!
Jake Guwap did your comment have a point? Or was the point to insult and elevate yourself above another person to satisfy your huge ego?
777_777 plenty of people in this comment section like that
The point is that he isn't very good if you watched the video for what it is.
rot we all gotta start somewhere.. I doubt you were prodigy when you started.
Not sure if you have noticed this yet but using your rear brake in slow tight turns provides stability as long as you moderate the throttle and of-coarse microscopic adjustments in the friction zone of your clutch. Remember under 12 mph you actually lean away from the turn yet face it with your shoulders and legs. Basically stay above your tires contact patch and bury that right knee into the tank for a left turn and vise versa. Maintain a straight up posture.
It could be me who wrote this story... Same story here.
49 and bought my Husqvarne TE250i in januari. Drove 15 years ago with 10 other 'crazy enduro-guys' and did not like it 100%
Did last year in november in Thailand (Pai) a one day trip and the virus was back.
GREAT VID!!
