I'm a 40 yr old with thoughts of regression. My son started racing 6yrs ago and gave me the itch again. Rode alot when I was younger and stopped to go to college. Last bike before college was a friends KX420. Found a great deal on a used '99 KX 500 and could'nt resist. Problem is I'm wondering if I should have bought a really good pair of sneakers to get in shape before I bought the bike.

Started out in my younger years on a QA50, then to a DT100, then YZ 125, then YZ400 and wrapped it up on the KX420 in the early 80's

Son races a Red 85. Mainly bought that because he's vertically challenged and it had the lowest seat height.

This site is great and full of info!!

Welcome!

I had to look up your KX 420 since I just started riding Kawie's in 2000 myself!  I guess I was riding YZ's in those days! Please post some pictures when you have time!

Conditioning ! The more time spent behind the bars, the more conditioned to riding you will become. First few rides can be a struggle, but if you ride often enough [at least once a week]you'll find the muscles get working nicely again for the job they're doing. Have fun with and welcome back.
