Someone forget to tighten an exhaust bolt? There's a team than needs some locker-checkin' if ever there was one!

I kid...I kid

One thing I noticed and thought was completely idiotic. Josh Hansen has multiple broken ribbs. Not one mention from Ralph or Jeff about this. This is a broadcast, what the hell is the point of a "progressive pre race report" if they do not point out that one of the better riders has broken ribs! Stop using wasteless time on kids in a living room on a bike and actually be a professionally ran production.

Riders like to keep injuries on the DL. Too easy to go after the sore spot and take said rider out.

They had him on SX live because he skipped third practice. Was open about everything.

Nah. Someone filled the muffler reservoir with automotive turn signal fluid. Common mistake.

I wonder if one of the springs broke leading to the other to give way? I feel bad for Josh and hope that he keeps working hard, it was cool seeing him lead some laps.

I seem to remember one year that Reed raced 2nd moto at Millville and the header had came off the bike.

Well this shows why you should wait to hear what happened after the race instead of jumping to conclusions after it just happened. Lot of scummy people here saying Hansen "gave up" and said his ego was bruised so he quit. Hanny was riding really well and it's a bummer the mechanical cost him a potential podium.

My FMF did the same thing on my 2013 crf250r, weld broke right at the flange seam.

Hanny has looked as good as about most people on the track this year, except for the whoops.

I don't know if it was his big crash he had in them on Mitch's bike a few years back, or his bike isn't there, confidence or what, but holy hell, he looks awful in the whoops.
