You should have posted this in the chit chat section, this is a great video that everyone should watch, definitely made me reflect on a few things.

Great video 
My old man is in his late 50's and rode a KX500 up until recently when he became very sick. He's in good health now but hasn't been on a bike since. I remember constantly telling him you need to raise your bars, you need bark busters/hand guards, you need to lower the gearing (14-48 on single track) you need to loosen your suspension--he couldn't have cared less and hand guards are for sissies! He went everywhere we did and loved every minute of it and the 99 KX still looks as clean as the day it came off the showroom floor.
Lately I wish I had the cash I'd buy him a new KTM 350EXC-F with grandpa suspension, an electric start and a kickstand. I think that would get him back in the saddle.
