You got paid to?
The devil is temping me.

Basically I can race a ktm250 xc for nothing. Or I can race a kawasaki which would be 350 a win for 18 nearby races, or a suzy which would pay 400 a race for about 12 nearby races. And if I was making this money, I could afford to do further away races like oma's, gncc's, and national enduros.

Would you quit smoking if you got paid to?

Let's see, KTM for 0, Kawi for $350 per win, or a Suzuki for $400...Do you have to win to get the $400 on the Zuk, if not...there's your sign....LOL. Honestly, I'd ride pretty much anything if they paid me to!!!

Let's see,,,,, POTENTIAL winnings verses almost certain catastrophic engine failure or, at least one season of two stroke bliss. Just say NO!

Zero engine problems and zero dollars spent on engine failures in 4 years on 6 bikes for 3 racers. Yeah I'm going to take up smoking again. NOT!

If 4 strokes were so great they wouldnt need a big displacement advantage.

You're telling me that if two riders of equal skill, ability, fitness, and drive went to the same track and threw down, one on a 250F and one on a 250 2 stroke, that the rider on the 4-stroke would have faster lap times?.


What fucking planet are you from?

I'd venture to say that the majority of your average MX riders would go faster, for longer, on a 250F than a 250.
