Seriously. There's a guy that rides around in my neighborhood with a radio taped to his bike, blasting Spanish music. I REALLY can't take it anymore. I feel like it would be stupid to call the cops saying "Hey, there's a guy with a radio taped to his bike, it's disturbing the peace." However, I don't know what else to do! Help!

Answer
pay some kid to "accidentally" kick the guy off the bike and destroy his radio....

How much should your feet touch when sitting on a dirt bike?

Should a person be able to plant there feet on the ground when sitting still on a trail bike? OR should they be able to just touch the ball of there foot? What is the the rule of thumb.

Answer
Dirt bikes need a lot of suspension travel and a lot of ground clearance, so they tend to be tall in the saddle. Most people cannot get both feet down on a modern dirt bike. Some kids ride dirt bikes and they can't touch at all.

It can be a problem if you get into a tight spot and can't get a foot down, but it happens to riders of all heights. The nature of offroad riding dictates that sooner or later you will get into a spot where you can't touch, or can't reach the kick star lever, or can't get up into the saddle from where you are standing.

For some terrain, I prefer an old-school twin shock bike where I can touch down more easily. Of course, that means I will have to give up some speed on the wide-open rough stuff. I also prefer an electric start, in part because of crusty old knees, and in part so that at least I can always start my bike wherever it is.
