Its a holeshot device sold by mb1. Lowers the rear end of the bike dramatically on the start

Stock Suzuki. Frame and Swingarm have to be from production. They can sift through hundreds, but it has to be off the assembly line. Unless something changed in AMA rules that I don't know about.

Where is Roczen, I don't see any times from him so far?

My god that bike is sexy. The Zooks look so much better w black rims btw!!!!!!!!

Oh and everyone's saying it's so wide open. I really think Roczen is going to dominate. Wish it wasnt the case because I want close racing.....

You are probably watching the wrong race.

Going out on a limb here but perhaps could it on the fly shock adjuster? Would something like that be legal?

A rider could adjust as track conditions change...

It's not new technology but I don't recall seeing anything like that on a race bike.

good question,

technically it is cheating right? IF you can (after the gate drops) further enhance your bikes performance based on track conditions.
The real question is did a TUE get filed for it?

@olso, I stand corrected, I looked from my phone n and just looked from my computer and your right, its definitely not the mb1 device. curious to what it is? I doubt its something that can make changes as he rides? is that legal?

It's apparently a data logger for suspension travel. It doesn't affect the bike so it's legal.

Nothing special about a sensor for logging data...no way he is referring to something that simple/low technology...

The Frame and engine cases have to be stock but not the swingarm... RV was running a 450 swingarm on his PC 250 bike outdoors.

looks like a turbo booster that injects nos into the rear tire to reach peak levels of purple power band.

Yup, all the guys that dont run the air forks put the sticker there anyways, look for the cartridge near the bottom of the fork that all air forks have. Those forks dont have them.
Some triple air chamber forks have the 3rd chamber inside like the production Honda CRF250. The valve is at the bottom of the lug instead of the rear.

He has a GET sticker on the top triple clamp... So he obviously logs data
