Would love to throw my hat in the ring, assuming there's an opening to keep articles like this away from publication...

http://motocrossactionmag.com/ask-mxperts-keihin-fcr-fuel-screw-know/


If I'm not mistaken, 2009 was the last carbureted YZ450F...The fuel screw tech tips are spot-on, and one can only assume there was some confusion over a 2013 year model YZ250F or YZ450F.


Don't even get me started on a few of the simple errors found here: http://motocrossactionmag.com/rumors-gossip-unfounded-truths-63/

Ohhh MXA... I admittedly do enjoy reading some of their stuff, but the amount of typos is ridiculous!!! Does NO ONE proof read any of it? In any given "Mid Week Report" I can find 5-6 simple typos. I even find them in the photo captions, with bold type.

Drives me nuts!!

MXA strongly recommended that​ the Copy Editor drop one tooth on their rear sprocket... evidently that has done very little to improve the situation.

It's a cool pic, but not a fan of skewing the horizon to make the climb look steep.

So you're saying trees dont grow 30 degrees off vertical?

Hahahaha, it was steep, but not that steep. Just went a little too far with editing. Nonetheless a great shot.
