Cool write up, good to see Ama series getting back on its feet a little, just hope they don't try and turn it into tarmac supercross...
Cool write up, good to see Ama series getting back on its feet a little, just hope they don't try and turn it into tarmac supercross again like last time. first Ama season was awesome, worth the expense of flying over.

That was awesome to read, congrats on the win! You talked about one guy having bike issues and another being out with injury, but you don't just luck into a win like that, you earned every bit of it by riding a smart race and keeping everything under control so enjoy it to the fullest! I don't know if you got to catch any of the hillclimb action when you were out there but a few guys I race with made the trip up under Team Unlimited Racing. I'd love to race that event one year but traveling so long makes it pretty tough to make happen. Again, congrats on the win, I love reading people's race reports and this one was really well done.

There are a few guys in the US that race the 2stokes but not many at all. The dude that can ride 2 stoke supermotos well are gnarly!

Ah yes. I should have looked at that. Kawi's are Pretty much the hardest bikes to make into good supermotos. Ktms fit a 5.5in wide rear rim in the stock swingarms, but the kawi with a stock swingarm will have tire rub issues with a 5in rim.

It's had a good mod job done, shortened too. Handled ok but needs clamps for tighter tracks
