@BIGhead160 We were riding in South Reading, out of my family's camp!

@ZachAtk1 you seem to get stuck on logs and shit quite a lot and just wanted to ask. Have you tried using 2nd gear to get over stuff like that? Ive never rode a 2 stroke so im not sure how it would handle a start from standing in 2nd but when i do it on my 1993 XT 600 it can do it fine. Its also how we are told to start in the snow.

@jimbo80982 Yea after a long day of riding I start to get careless with my log crossings. I'm usually in 2nd gear, 1st gear occasionally for slower stuff. A 2 stroke is a completely different animal, you should definitely try one sometime! The acceleration on a 2 stroke is incredible, you actually need to hang on!

[jimbo80982]

@ZachAtk1 hehehe my mums always saying how good her RD LC back in "the day". Unfortunately road legal 2 strokes are a pain in the ass to get nowadays :(

[ZachAtk1]

@jimbo80982 Yea, it's a shame!

I like the commentaries,you guys make the best vids,and little reed is cool and a cool rider.I will keep watching.How often do you replace brake pads?Keep it up guys.

[ZachAtk1]

@timefink1 Thanks! I think these are the stock brake pads. My bike is an 08' (but I've owned it since this year) so they've lasted a good amount. The mud and terrain I ride in really speeds up the wearing process. It's probably best to change them every season, or sooner if needed.
