"Let The Kids Ride."

[alenblake38g]

I want this video on my M528 unit.

[ohnniehickm24j]

Your vid went viral on Honduras

[mommitube]

Did YAS HEAR? As reported in American Motorcyclist (Issue Oct-2011)

" VICTORY! AUGUST 12, 2011 * H.R. 2715"

"It took almost 3 yrs .... AMA Members Crush The Lead Law... " THEY/ WE did it! Our writings petitions etc changed the Law! The kids can now ride!

[racered94]

im pretty glad this isnt going on anymore (i think) what kind of a dumass is gonna eat their bike unless their a baby.....but if they're old enough to race then their smart enough to know that a bike isnt food and the 1 dislike is probably the retarded dum fuck who passed this law

[Mchitheguy]

Who the hell disliked this?!?!?!?!

[yz85racer25]

tell me how a kid is gunna get led poisoning from twisting the throttle of a bike the goverment is mind contrtolled by the frigen tree hugers i hate thopse basterds

[Gaaabbbs]

Every morning, the first thing that comes to my mind is, "Motocross". I'm 15 now, so the law wouldn't apply to me, but if Ithe younger kids at motocross wouldn't be able to ride. Without this sport, I'd probably be a lazy girl with nothing else to do but "hang around the malls, smoke crack, and mug old ladies." To most of us, motocross isn't a hobby, it's a lifestyle. A lifestyle I plan on keeping my whole life.

[Tyler1Blaster]

the government doesnt understand that this is our new sport.. i mean playing football is as dangerous if not more dangerous than a kid riding a lil 50.. i mean i have 3 quads and i have yet to take a bite outta my frame!

[thepaintballnerd]

This is so stupid.

I loved riding quads. Racing them and learning about how an engine works.......... My dream is over. Thanks Government You Make paintball look bad and now this. I promise i wont eat my battery......

[yzfmx17]

[USCisgay]

[darwiy]

[yz85racer25]

fucking bullshit is what it is godam goverment whats next to ban riding on al dirtbikes

[fortsmith1]

My kids ride bikes and shoot guns too. I must be crazy but my kids love it.

[downIoder]

it´s better to let kids do gunshoting and learn to take drugs , steeling cars E.t.c i beleve also that is dandgerus to do a sport whith parents and friends .

so if you are responibility parents changes de bike to a Gun ...

[Vagitarion]

The ground kills people

Air kills people

Trees kill people

Spiders kill people

We gonna ban those too?

Whoever made these laws should be hung.

[jarrahjoe]

LOL.... Only in America!!! What a crazy Law! Good Luck guy's!

[MRGOPED]

[mitc4h]

good work champ i agree 100% LET THE KIDS RIDE!

[handcraftivist]

Good for the OHV industry for TACKLING the HUGE problems caused by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act! Adding this and all of the motocross industry CPSIA related videos to my playlists at youtube/handcraftivist and spreading the word on Twitter at twitter/cpsia

[MUNDOFAMOUSFILMS]

screw oboma its all his fault for this and now we have to suffer

[pinkandbig777]

wtf!!!!!! dirtbikes dont even come from china!!!!!

[dirtbikecowboy14]

Dude the gov. sucks seriously it will kill or sport! LET THE KIDS RIDE!

[85ccmaster]

Funny Ive been getting oem parts for all my honda and yamaha minis

[studog4000]

maybe the kids can all jump off there bikes, hang around the malls, smoke crack and mug old ladies instead of enjoying a great healthy outdoor sport !?

[lilanthony1022]

We should just let the kids ride

[renasc]

The world is ruled by dumbfucks. LET THE KIDS RIDE!

[handcraftivist]

We MUST amend the CPSIA! Join fight at the Amend the CPSIA Rally in Washington, DC on April 1, 2009. If you can't be there, watch the stream of live events at AmendtheCPSIA com

[rideyourrace]

Help keep youth motorcyle sports alive & sign the petitions to protect our kids and freedoms!

[ktmracer3500]

Its so stupid because, of a kid is old enough to ride a motorcycle he won't be trying to eat the paint off of his motorcycle, jsut a stupid excuse to ban everythign because, of all those toys that came from china with lead paint in them.

[offspring7788]

What the hell man, I live in southern California, everywhere you go, you can't skateboard, you can't build BMX jumps in the desert without someone from the city tearing them down, now this? No wonder kids are getting fat and joining gangs!! AHHHHH!!!

[kxkid105]

this rule is ridiculous and it could hurt the sport in unbelievable ways

[MidnightDiabloRacing]

Thats so stupid, what are kids supposed to ride now power wheels??

[07wr250f]

nope they cant ride power wheels. theres lead in power wheels.

[yzdude370]

Comment on my page for ideas for the video please!!!! this isn't fair for the kids.

[yzdude370]

Yeah i have already left a comment but this is still ridiculus. okay if this sport is taken away for kids i guess licking there dirt bikes. yeah right..... whats going to be next are the kids not going to be able to have cell phones because they are made of lead too.err if the kids can't do that then they could start doing drugs and stuff like that because there bored and find it fun. idk i am going to be making a video and posting it. and going to get it to the congress people.

[motopsycho1987]

so thats 1 more activity to take away from kids today, no wonder obesity is such a problem, im 21 and even i found it hard to find things to do / places to go outdoors when i was younger.

[07wr250f]

what is made of lead on a dirtbike? they're usually aluminum block/head, frame is steel or aluminum, if its elec. start, MAYBE the battery terminals??? this is fucked. who licks their dirtbike anyway... well... i do.... but thats behind closed doors with the lights off............. lol jk

[masonvega114]

Ha. It is ridiculous. Hell I could drink the gas in my bike or even eat the air filter but im not going too.

[econr6]

We should all be happy with the government saying kids should start on a 125 instead of a pitiful 50.

[lucahemi1233]

ur fucked up in the head

[econr6]

you don't understand sarcasm?

[cheesebrain008]

haha exactly. They are so dumb.

[yzdude370]

This is so dumb!!! The little kids are the lifeblood of our sport. And if they take them away tthen there parents won't race because there kid will go and do something else. This is ridiculous.

[bullsweet38]

what about the midgets in the world?! what are they going to ride (sorry thats not pc, i'm sorry)

[uglycarfan]

Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself. - Mark Twain

[CODEEmx527]

im really feeling sorry for manufactuers like cobra who specialize in minis and whose main markets are in america

[QdrewtigerQ]

you can still race you can no longer get parts / gear / ect for young bikes which is a load of bs this is just one step towards sociallism which america is a getting ingulfed in.

next guns, then young sports, the we will take the full change into sociallism.'

how many kids chew on there dirt bikes 0?????

[CODEEmx527]

tottaly agree

[NFSGamerUSA]

Are you fucking serious?!? Do they think kids run around LICKING their dirt bikes and ATVs? I think the more serious issue is the amount of crack the CSPIA is smoking. I'm in utter disbelief that they've already had major dirkbike and ATV manufacturers pull their youth models. They're out of their minds and must be stopped!

[CODEEmx527]

i think its a matter of trying to conserve gas soon all "unessary" combustion engines will be banned if the liberals have their way about

[NFSGamerUSA]

I wish...then we could shove the facts down their throats about how much more fuel efficient powersport vehicles are compared to those hybrid Prius appliances.

[CODEEmx527]

lol exactly, nice gm avatar

[NFSGamerUSA]

Gotta represent my ride/toy hauler! :)

[CODEEmx527]

lmao silverado FTW

[NFSGamerUSA]

Yeah, it's a great truck! The only decent looking truck (both the Silverado and Sierra) you can' get now, although the Dodge isn't too bad. Ford's interior? WAY more "style" than function. Too bad, it's not a half-bad truck.

[musiclovr2]

the greatest times were when i was a kid,and i got to ride my dirtbike

one of the greatest gifts a lil kid could get is a new dirt bike,and time with dad,cleaning it ,and teaching ya how to ride

every kid wants to spend time with there dad/moms on a warm day riding

is this a ploy to get America to let them flood us with the toys that have all the lead in them, because we will stand up for our dirtbikes,and (OUR PAST TIME)??

THERE SNEAKY BASTARDS

[mommitube]

GOTO the AMA site-you can sign(forward) a petition - it's already to go FOR U! It's very professionally written etc. And you can find who else to write! LET'S MAKE SOME NOISE PEOPLE!!!

[mommitube]

This just came to our attention today! We can't believe it. My hubby & I & our 2 sons ride! And this is absolutely BS! You can bet that we're contacting everyone we know! You can even write the group responsible for it! And if it doesn't get overturned-I say that we take all of our kids bikes & dump'm on the capitol steps! The frikkin bat rastards.

[redmohawkrobert]

this is real and u cant make a BIG ENOUGH DEAL ABOUT IT!!!! motocross is struggleing andthis will hurt it more just warn the kids that there i lead in the bikes i dont think any kids are licking their bikes

[ferr311]

Thats the big mistakes they are doing.

I dont know if they are doing this for some particular reasons BUT they should at least consider the fact that

Getting through some hard life events, riding is something good, instead of taking your parents car, to go as fast as you can to feel how life can be taking away so easily, or going smoke weed in a parc because you got nothing else to do.

Think about it, i mean riding is really helpfull for young people living hard conflicts at their age.

[Seanlikesmx]

thats all i want in life is a son like that in 1:18

[Kovall93]

this law is absolutely rediculous. a lot of people i know (plus myself) have been riding since we were like 4, and it just increases the love for the sport, and we are still all alive and well. once again the gov. screws us over. LET THE KIDS RIDE!

[banshee8989]

I dont think people are aware of the ramifications this could have to our sport. This could kill it in 20 years. This is real people and is no joke. If you are into motorcyles of any kind please... please get involved.

[joman2055]

this could kill it now. i hear that some tracks will not be able to hold races if there are no youth classes because youth entrance fees are such a large part of their income.

the good news is, that unlike the recent OHV closures, the industry factories acctually have a lot to loose here so they will be fighting tooth and nail with their money and their lawyers.

[mcdouga1l]

thats such a stupid law..i remember wen i got my first d.b. at 5 and i couldn't stay off the thing. i would always run out of gas because i would never stop! this law better not last long!! LET THE KIDS RIDE! the gov is destroying their dreams

[CBRFRENZIE]

Is there some kind of Petition or something already in place to turn the ban around.

[FoxRacing85]

I STILL AM IN SHOCK THEY DID THIS !!!!! WHAT A BUNCHA BULLSHIT !!!!!!!!!!!! I STARTED AT 9 YEARS OLD AND LOVED EVERY SECOND OF RIDING MY Honda XR70R !!!

LET THE KIDS RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!

[Seanlikesmx]

hey man great words i started on the same bike motocross foe life

[FoxRacing85]

Thanks a lot man

HELL YEAH RIDE FOR LIFE!!!

[FlyingMonkey1223]

If a kids dream is to ride motorcross then he is probably a redneck. Seriously.

[biker7767]

thats the dumbest comment ever.

[Seanlikesmx]

fuck you asshole if this fucking video doesnt get to you and make you wana do something about it then you have no soul

[FlyingMonkey1223]

Right, I have no soul because people are making a bigger deal out of this then it REALLY is. Gimme a break.

[musiclovr2]

you dont realize how big a deal this is

whats next for the bastards to take away -(permanently)!!!

[GSRGOPEDRIDER247]

guns, kids motorcycles, all this stuff... by the time i grow up i won't be able to purchase crap

[musiclovr2]

your right ,thats what evil ignorant ppl in govrnmnt do take from us,instead off educating

maybe someday we will get to build things in america again

unless they sell the rest of america out from under us

im all for safety but this is bullcrapp

hell we dont need jobs,we wont have anything to buy!

[Troggie42]

really? wow. open your mind, dude.

[RazorsEdge446]

your a duesh kid... whats your dream? wanna be the next person to work on computers all your life play x box constantly and never get laid?

[kid145]

Faggot.

[haydenphotography]

All i have to say its a sad day for all of us ! I started riding at 5 years old and it was so awesome to have my dad and bothers out riding together ! what a bunch of crap ----LET THE KIDS RIDE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[SplitSecond199]

ok the people that banned kids form riding should die that is such bull there cuz little kids love to ride..i remember when i got my first dirt bike and i was so happy... these people are destroying kids dreams why would they do this...they don't want kids under 12 getting hurt...those kids know they are gonna get hurt in the sport that's what happens in motocross and they are taking a chance and riding. well i hope that company that banned kids is happy ruining kids dreams of riding motocross

[nayandress]

We better start working on getting this in front of politicians to get this changed ASAP so we can get this idiotic law adjusted.

[ilikpron]

LET THE KIDS RIDE!!!!!!! I remember the days on my first bike, the happiest days of my life, i would just get on the bike and ride my troubles away, i had the times of my life on my little bike, it made way better memories than any family vacation or baseball game, now i'm closer to my dad than ever before. LET THE KIDS RIDE!!!!!

[FoxRacing85]

MOST STUPIDEST SHITTY LAW I EVER HEARD OF LET THE KIDS RIDE I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS 9 ON MY 2001 XR70R I loved that bike !!!! THIS IS SO GAY !!! LET THE KIDS RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No MORE PIT BIKES WHICH REALLY SUCKS !!! HELL I MAY BE ON THE CRF250R now BUT I STILL WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING MY KIDS ON BIKES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE !!! DONT LOOK LIKE THAT WILL HAPPEN THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING

[Seanlikesmx]

this could almost make me cry

[crfC93]

man thats complete bull just let the kids ride they know the danger and everything and there parents obviously know to so if they want there kid to ride/race they should let them cause its going to ruin our sport that we love to do

[eksquad845]

i know its not topic. but whats the name of the back round music?

[pitfighter87]

Good stuff brother.

[HyperFX841]

It does not make it illegal to sale motorcycles/ATV's targeted to 12/under. The law only affects the sale of any items targeted to 12/under with a lead level of more than 600ppm (parts per million). That is a dangerous amount of lead and can give a child brain damage, or worse. The law is not concerned with motorcycles, or anything that might be a dangerous sport.

Although well meaning, it is not yet fine tuned enough to prevent this temporary interruption of motorcycle sales.

Be patient.

[HyperFX841]

The use of such products is not illegal. Only the sale. Kids can continue to ride/race their bikes that they already have. But, parts & bikes will be illegal to sale.

It's not a good idea to be a group of foaming-at-the-mouth mini parents when trying to convince our law makers to make changes to a law.

Be proactive, but be patient.

Hopefully, the laws will be adjusted soon, so our kids can get back to riding their bikes, instead of eating them.

[NOMADVVDP]

If what you say is true then why did they ban the sell of parts. And call me crazy but i've been riding since i was a child and i didnt end up with brain damage. 2 and 2 is adding up to 4 here. And another thing, i never voted on this. Now they can take anything without the public's voice being heard?

[NOMADVVDP]

oops i meant not added up to 4

[HyperFX841]

Any product with a lead level of more than 600ppm targeted for use by 12 yrs old and under cannot be sold. A motorcycle is the sum of its parts.

[ridethescoon]

r kids still aloud to race mx if there under 12

[HyperFX841]

Yes, they can still ride/race. Only the SALE of items with high lead levels are illegal.

[ridethescoon]

i read on acemx website that kids 13 and under cant race

[HyperFX841]

Not true. Only the sale of high lead level products targeted for 12 yrs old and under are banned. They can still race.

[xrron]

this is terrible. i just had a daugther and was looking foward to teaching her how to ride and going on camping trips etc. this is part of a plot to get rid of our lifestyles because we dont fit into liberals worldview. thank got my cousin has a xr 70 that he'll give my daughter when shes old enough.

[chanchan28]

this would lead to alot more illegal riding if they did this Motorsports i beleive saved my life because I hated school sports when i was younger and i got into motocross and I changed alot of my ways and started to take care of my body. It gave me goals

[motocrossrules124]

Someone go to washington and smack some sense into this liberal politicians!

[sangriaa]

I'm waiting for someone to say this is Obama's fault so I can throw them out a window.

[mracrew]

oh please this is not obama's causing but believe me him and his liberals would love to see an end to all motorsports. Lets legalize drugs but make youth dirt bikes illegal what an ass backwards group of idiots.

[CODEEmx527]

its obamas fault

[CODEEmx527]

call me a conspirator but i think there is an under plot here....if they dont lift the ban on ohvs for kids i think its because washington liberals view our sport as nothing but a waste of gas and may eventually ban all ohvs. Also if theyre is no exemption, kids that are too small for bikes larger than 100cc, are just gonna buy a bike that theyre not able to control so injuries would increase.

[Jsmitty121]

ya i get what your saying and you make a good point but why would they attack our sport first? maybe because it isn't as popular as the other motor sports. i dont have anything against it but NASCAR must use a hell of a lot more fuel than us.

[CODEEmx527]

theres big corporations in nascar sponorship that could fight back against a ban on them.

[xrron]

100% true

[HyperFX841]

There is no ban on ohv's. No ban on any motorcycle, period.

There is a ban on the sale of any product that has a lead level of more than 600 ppm.

The video is 99% true, because the law does stop the sale of bikes targeted for 12/under, but that is only because the bikes have lead levels of more than 600ppm. Not because they are motorcycles.

The law is effective, but too encompassing. This temporary interruption of bike sales to 12/under will end when the law is adjusted.

[ThumperTalk]

The net affect is the same as a ban. The bikes are off showroom floors and dealers (like me) can't even sell OEM parts to existing owners.

[mommitube]

We who really care - plan to get this overturned! Don't lose hope! In the meantime get everyone that you know to goto the AMA site & sign(forward) a petition - it's already to go FOR U! It's very professionally written etc. And you can find who else to write to! LET'S MAKE SOME NOISE PEOPLE!!! U CAN DO IT!

[NWMfilms]

wait, so parents cant even buy pitbikes for themselves anymore?

[biker7767]

some kids can get killed in foot ball from injuries related to the neck and other ones like that. also when you race or ride they know the risk, and responsibilities of it, like when going to practices, or racing at, or singing up for a region, district of racing they sing a waver saying they know the risks of it, and so on. this law should not be allowed

[xfoxgirl25x]

thank you

[biker7767]

i think that band is bull shit. That is taking away a kids dream, and possible a set life goal to become a pro mx racer. having that law will completely destroy our sport. The kids are what makes it grow and continue. with out being able to ride at a young age work up through the bikes, and ranks how are they going to be good, and become pro, also like said in the video it will take down track facilties, big time companies, and dealerships. anyone can get hurt in anysport.

[backhillrider124]

this situation is not good:(
