My bike is still waiting to be put back together, all I have to do is find someone who can charge my shock with nitrogen

I can't believe that this track is 52 minutes from my house and also that he had 30+ guys riding there and I didn't know one person. The pics just don't do it justice. There are 2 back to back whoop sections right behind me and a downhill and a uphill. So many fun and very cool jumps. It took me a while took get them down because a lot of them had very steep take offs. The track had a 2:45 lap time and really had something for everyone. Super fun day. Thanks Shane for inviting me and it was awesome and very nice putting a face to guy I've been talking to for months on here.

Digger, you have had all the pipes, scalvini, FMF, pro circuit, and now bills pipes. Which is the best?
Mxa says pro circuit, everyone seems to run FMF. FMF has the development of all the KTM teams except the factory.

I know I seem like kind of pipe whore but I borrowed a few of them to try them out. The Scalvini was the first one I bought when I first got my bike late in the summer of 12. I had one on my RM and it was awesome and just what that bike needed. The fitment was awful on my KTM and required my welder friend to cut and reshape the stinger because it wouldn't line up with the silencer. The pipe didn't want to go into the cylinder either. I had to grease it and tap it in with a rubber hammer. It was very weak on the track and wasn't at what I looking for at all. I borrowed and really liked the FMF combo a lot and it definitely is a great choice for the 250SX. I read MXA's 300SX project bike test when I was doing my 300 kit and they loved the PC 300XC pipe on their project bike so I borrowed one from a buddy and did some back to back laps with it against my FMF and it was better and it was smoother and revved out a bit than the FMF. A cpl of months ago I heard Bill's Pipes was back in business and I've always used their & loved the stuff so I gave them a call and told them that my bike needs more on top and they guaranteed me that they had done extensive testing with the 250SX/300SX/XC and they knew exactly what it needed and their pipe and silencer would do the trick for me. I got it a few wks ago and it is awesome. The pipe is just electric (without being boring) and seems to rev a ton more than anything I've tried. It's smooth everywhere but if you stab the clutch it has plenty of giddy up :-) It makes the bike very very easy to ride while still being just stupid fast.

You had me at "electric". I'd like to try one of those 300 bikes, but I have to off a few other things in my shop to do it. Don't know that I'll ever sell my 500, but it sounds like the 300 is a good route to go for a guy who weighs 260 in gear. Eddie Sanders Racing is bringing back the big bore kit for the 92-01 Honda, so I may go that route. I have 2 of those bikes in my shop.

Look at this cool Google earth image of the track we rode at on Sunday. Check out the SX track next door. It is a full on SX track that Dirt Wurx built it for a buddy of mine last yr. I didn't even know he lived next door until I got their on Sunday. I deleted the pic because every time I took the address of the track out and loaded the pic the address was there. I can't figure out why that keeps happening.

Great to ride with you over the weekend Digger! Still early and we have plenty more riding to do! I'll take you to another track soon! He's still working on it but so far he's made a lot of progress!
