Chad saying they haven't changed anything on the bike is total bs, pretty sure mr stillwelding on here has been making some changes for them, can't remember whose twitter I saw it on but it seems to be working. btw mr welding those are some sweet looking welds, I wish my eyes would let me weld as good as I used to. anyone tried/use the cheater/magnifying lenses? I have tried my reading glasses but just can't find my happy distance to get the clarification I need/am happy with

and good ride for Grant, can't say I'm a big fan but have to give credit where its due

Im glad he made sixth but I wouldn't say he's building on his results. What about Broc Tickle, though!

Did you see how he started the season? This was his seasons best and recently has finally started putting his bike in the top 10.

He did well, perhaps a tad lucky to get 6th after Peick and Anderson got together in front of him, so he gained two spots there.

Don't know, but you are allowed to add extra gussets/welds... The factory kawis have em down the bottom of the swingarm...

Regardless, AMA/FIM don't know their ass from their elbow, Matthes described just last week they were measuring frames with a regular tape measure... Awesome.

It certainly helped this week, Reed was great in the heat just the mistake in the main, came back through the field until he got behind his team-mate. At that point building the replica track hindered him as Grant knew exactly where to ride to block his Boss's lines lol.

Great ride by Grant, he worked forward all race.

Grant, Tickle and Bagget all impressed me tonight.

Bagget might end this season yet as the leading Rookie in points ahead of Seely and Anderson, who would have called that before the season started!

He is only 5 down on Seely and 11 on Anderson now heading into Daytona

Grants fastest lap was lap 18. He looked precise and smooth at the end.

Like Reed said in his Pulpcast interview, 4-8 is where Grant should be.
