Raw nasty horsepower is addictive and I will leave the smooth power of a 4 stroke for when I am too old to hang on to a 2 stroke. 

AMEN...   :D  This is why I ride a smoker...  for the fun of arm ripping horsepower...  yes it is verty addictive

I thought about but it was a brand new chain an sprocket and I didn't want to risk damaging something if the sprocket came flying off again or it to come off on the face of a jump or anything. To be honest it was kind of a blessing I couldn't ride a lot, had a mad chest infection and felt like throwing up between sessions from dehydration.  Probably shouldn't have been riding at all. Didn't tell my bro before I took his bike out tho
