So you actually think that Marvins factory bike made him win these offseason SX races?

It`s a big factor and it does make a difference. Not only the bike of course, but the the huge difference is easily noticeable even by a total amateur like myself.
In tracks like Geneva and Lille the engines aren't probably that big of a difference?

The other riders had their suspension with them, they didn't ride stock bikes.

Really?!

I`m actually in shock that you believe what you write.
So, nevermind. 100% rider, 0% bike, as famous RMZ likes to argue, lol.

Im in shock someone can be as blind as you. Marvin is a better rider than all them guys. Get over it. There's a reason Marvin is on one of, if not the best teams in the world. You seriously think any of those guys outside Brayton, Barcia and Mookie could beat Marvin on any bike?

The difference is Barcia shows up to race the outdoors.

Well... no arguing that.

But i'd bet if you did a dollar for dollar comparison one is pretty good value right now!

This Malcolm/James thing remembers me a bit about the Christophe Pourcel (after his two East 250 titles and two second places in the outdoor championships). Everyone knew that Frenchie could race a bike but their was something in the moto community that did make them do what they did. Eventuality it turned out great for CP377 now riding with Husqvarna, but he had some down years behind him.

Even though the results don't show it, I thought Barcia looked WAY more comfortable on the RMZ than the YZ. He was also more aggressive, good to see. I hope he can be top 5 this year.

Right? He looked frustrated, as I'm sure he was, that he couldn't pass Stewart...that first block pass attempt seemed out of desperation.

I've never really been a fan of Barcia's until the last 2 seasons so I was glad to see he and Stew patting each other on the back afterwards. Hope they both do well in '17.

I dont know, "more aggressive" doesn't sound like a good thing to me talking about Justin...

Marvin cross jumps people so much you can see Brayton back off in the second race when Marvin squeezes by him.

He is fast enough to stay out there, why race like that? Super dangerous.

Someone needs to give Mookie a contract immediately!
It's ridiculous that he can ride at that level without a sponsor.
