maybe just maybe in your local So Cal area a couple bikes but besides that I don't know what to tell you buddy your not seeing the big picture as far as sales go that's for sure.

I'm by no means an expert on the situation but I'd have to disagree. I come from and follow racing and the track is where i do 98% of my riding BUT... The kid has 586 THOUSAND followers... Again, I'm no expert but when almost 600 Thousand people scroll through and like his pictures, I would say that would reach more of an audience that is actually paying attention to the commercials during primetime on a show airing on ABC or NBC or any of these bigger networks. All see him on a green bike (other then xgames he leaves his bike kawi green MOST of the time). And whether we want to admit it or not, if you are looking to get into the sport or are already in the sport and want to buy a bike they say "that axle kid is insane and he rides that green bike and it doesn't snap in half when he jumps 50 feet in the air, that bike must be pretty good I think ill get a green bike like Axle". I think to say the kid doesn't sell bikes is an ignorant statement. Whether or not you agree with how he does or have any desire to ride a quarterpipe (I know I don't), the kid has to sell bikes. Again this is my opinion and I have zero facts to back this up, I just don't see how Kawi doesn't see an ROI from this kid.

I am 22 years young, how young are you to not know who Twitch or Tyler Bereman are? Do you have an instagram? Not trying to be a dick but I mean these are huge influencers of the sport on social media right now. I suppose if you aren't from America you wouldnt know. But if you are posting responses on Vital I take you care about dirt biking in general. Or you are just strangling the industry by only watching racing. And it was a joke they don't race. Just ride for a living.

Let me know how many bikes Twitch and Bereman sell and then get back to us. The younger crowd might now who they are, but they aren't selling bikes so for the rest of us they are pretty irrelevant. By the way I'm 27 and I really couldn't care less what Twitch and Bereman. I watched Bereman come through the ranks racing CMC. I'm glad he is making money free riding and all that, but again he isn't selling bikes or anything like that so he's irrelevant to the guys that just love racing.

Im not going to destroy you with statistics. But lets be real. How many kids 18-24 are buying new dirt bikes? If i saw Ronnie Renner hitting a sweet kicker in Ocotillo Wells vs ET3 hitting a rhythm in super cross. Im not going to buy a new kawi and go pretend to be ET3 because I'm not a groomed professional. Twitch and Bereman don't sell as many "new" bikes sure. but they do sell brands at pretty much the same level as ET3. They reach different markets on a free platform on a daily basis. Also they post shit every day that gets 10s of thousands of views. Over time thats much more than the same ET3 fans watching him win MX or SX. I don't think its just about selling bikes if we are talking about growing the sport.
