A video posted Sunday of a young boy, 6-years-old, riding and driving a Harley Davidson motorcycle while his father lets him take over the steering is sparking some interesting discussion on You Tube this week.

See video here:

The video posted by the boy’s father shows the dad leaning back and letting go of the handle bars of his big bike while riding at high speeds. The father then prompts the youngster to take control of the bike while he relinquishes control. While the little boy is wearing a helmet, he doesn’t appear to be wearing any other protective gear.

With most of the comments were surprising supportive, many people criticized the boy’s attire, which was only a t-shirt and shorts.
