Guy fixes up dirt bike to give to a little boy with a struggling dad.

Growing up, I don’t think I actually knew of a single kid in the neighborhood who didn’t desperately want a dirt bike, or at least a go cart.. In my generation, it was the XR75 and the YZ80. If you had one, you were in the cool club.
I don’t know if that’s even in many of these kid’s minds today, but there’s one kid who I can identify with for sure. He lit up when he saw that. Worth it.

Awesome!
Should give us all hope that there are still decent people out there.

My Mom and Dad got divorced when I was in 5th grade. Dad just up and disappeared. My Uncle (Mom's Brother) always had bikes. He would buy them and fix them up, sell them and start over. It was something he loved to do.
One day Mom and I went to his house and he had a Honda dirt bike for me. He said that he had brought it home in buckets and fixed it up. I had years of fun on that bike and his generosity is something I have never forgotten. I hope that kid has as much fun as I did.

I had a TTR-125L then a YZ80 growing up. Still remember the smell of that mixed 2-stroke smoke.

I hope to do things like that in retirement

The guy knows his stuff and has a well-organized shop. Kudos for his time and generosity.

There are a heck of a lot of decent people in this world…..the only problem is, they don’t act on it.
It requires very little effort to do something nice for someone. Do it!
