Yeah I agree dirt is fun, my buddy has a modded Honda cr250 2stroke and sometimes it almost seems like it has two much power! I can rip the throttle in any gear and have the front end come up! However, I do think getting dirt time in shows you some basic fundamentals of street riding, like hitting the the throttle and having the rear end straighten itself out! And launching is always fun in the dirt! Oh and if you've ever rode behind someone it teaches you to wear your face and eye protection in a hurry!
