Little Motorcross bikes in wakeboard videos

Does anyone know the specifications to these tiny motorcross bikes that the wakeboard pros are riding in the videos? I wanna get myself one sometime this summer, but just wondering if people knew the model they ride, and if they have any certain modifications

Parks got 2 Honda 50's when he won the Deep Charge.

They are Honda XR50s, I believe.

Since they are designed for little kids, like 6-9 or something, do I need to make any modifications to them to support an adult?

they are xr-50 and no you dont need to make any mods unless you want to jump or go faster. If you put a certain engine mod on it, you get about 80 something cc's out of it. thats a lot of power for that small of a bike. You might want to raise the suspension so the wheel is farther away from the back of the bike but i dont think you need to do that. hope this helps.

i think ktm makes a 50cc motocross bike with some sick wheel travel. i think it's the sx50 sr. or something like that.

Wesit acctually called the SXR50, i used to have one allong time ago, they came stock whtih a fat boy pipe, the only catch was they were front kicks, so it took some getting used to....I miss that thing, it kicked ass!

if you are a bigger person, putting a set of BMX handle bars on the bike in place of the stock handle bars will give your knees better clearance.

The KTM 50s are really cool. Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Suzuki all have 50s too.

other things that are cool are KLX 110 and they arent that much bigger than 50's.

Parks has 2 honda z50 trails.

Grace- Since when did Kawi start making fifties? I thought they only had 60's and 65's.

Sean- I believe Kawasaki just started making the KDX50 this year. I saw it on their website.

i bet the pro's are just too lazy to walk down to their docks so they would rather ride their little bikes. I would do this too if i had the money.

the KTM 50's are fast. We went to a race not long ago and the KTM 50's blew them away.
