any mid 90"s honda cr. leatt carbon neck brace, original pod knee braces, O neal hardware pants & jerseys, alum bike stand, all works connection products, in 1993 I was going broke washing my bikes at the car wash,only the rich guys had them
at the races, I bought a Northern industries pressure washer, like 500.00 back then, my Dad & I went & got plastic 55 gal drum & all the fittings & hoses. Used it at home & at the races for 20 yrs!, pressure washer engine finally gave up, I still use the same 55 gal drum, hoses & fittings! I use it ALOT, Dad is gone now but, always think of him when I load up the drum for the races!
Reading that makes me sad for sum reason...

I just got my TM Designworks skid plate and chain guide. Can't wait to put them on. Anyone have any experience with them? I've only seen a few comments, all of which were positive.

Gaerne SG10's are a fantastic boot. A bit pricey, but I have no complaints.

AGV AX8 helmet, the thing is stupid light and fits my brain like a glove....and you can get them very reasonable.

2003 kx250 I did a little engine work along with very minor suspension mods, and have never felt more comfortable/gone faster on any kid I have ever owned. These bikes got a bad reputation but it was by far the best bike I have ever owned.

yea I had a 03 250 kx . really loved that bike

Suomy Helmet - so comfy and light don't even know I'm wearing a helmet
No toil - makes cleaning filters soo much easier
Steg pegz - find it hard to ride without them now
2012 KX450 - the motor on that was just amazing, I still miss it.

Öhlins suspension has never disapponted me. Doesn't matter if we speak durability or performance, they are always on top.

My CRF450 2009 was super reliable, I loved it for that reason.

One Industries makes really good graphics.

And the best filter product, BY FAR, is No-Toil. Damn their product is an easy 10.

EVS Vision knee braces- 10 years old now and extremely comfortable and still in decent shape.

Shoei vfx-w - Running on 3 years and still feels like home.

Kx 250 99-02 have several and love the ride and feel. Best bike for me.

Shift gear very good.

Klotz 2stroke oil. The best
would love my 2000 KX250 back... the low to mid power band was phenomenal, I know where it is at but, its pretty roached out now unfortunately.

If you know of a really clean one I am in the market!!!

I've just gotten back into riding I have rode since I was 13 on my kx80, I'm 25 now.

SG10 boots, I literally went to my local shop tried them and bought them in 5mins I can't believe how good they are.

All my seven gear.
Bell moto 9 helmet
KTM150 love it.

Zeta adjustable top clamp, pro taper pillow tops and fastway evo footpegs.
Pretty much killed my arm pump and made riding fun again.

I love Yamaha and the newer KTMs. 4Ts and 2Ts.

Shoei VFX-W lids. Had a nasty spill last year when a guy cut the track. Smashed my head hard. No concussion or loss of consciousness.

Alpinestar Tech 7s. Feel like top of the line boots for half the price.

Rekluse EXP clutches are a God send for woods racing. Helps with moto too.

Oakley Airbrake Goggles. They last. They are super comfortable and are super safe.

Bridgestone M101 rear is an excellent soft terrain rear tire, probably the best soft terrain tire I've ever used. I also like the Dunlop MX52s and 32s.

TM design works chain guide gear is nearly indestructible.

Evans waterless coolant is a must for 4T woods bikes when the conditions are nasty.

Sidi Crossfire TA boots - I did not want to justify spending 475 dollars on these boots they are well worth it. They feel slightly heavy not an issue when riding not like I'm doing freestyle. Only gripe is the euro half sizes and the boot is slightly narrow so if you have wide feet they wont fit. I like the old style MX boot sole over the replaceable screw in one on the SRS model. I was worried the screws would come out from vibration. Still can get the TA model resoled too which is nice. Everything on the boot is replaceable which is nice!
