What fast riders didn't make it..?
Its the world championship. each country selected there top riders to race and i believed had helping hand in funds to help get them riders over to race.
I don't get how a different location would make it any better. Riders from all around the world still have to travel to that specific location?

I was really surprised on the results. I'm more then happy Aussies came away with the overall how ever i expected a hand full of riders to do a lot better then they did.

Ryder Difrancesco was the main one i thought would do a lot better. knowing hes one of the top amateurs, if not the main focus in the US and to finish up 4th... shows theirs some kids out there with some serious speed.


As said above... The 65,85 and 125 classes where full of the worlds fastest riders.

Because Deegan doesn't want his kid to loose hahaha!
Don't get me wrong, the kids fast.. But there's two handfulls of juniors in the US that would run rings around danger boy.

Isn't Ryder like 12 or 13 years old? 4th is pretty damn good.

the only thing that kept ryder from staying up front both motos was he had bike trouble the whole week they were there.Due to the fuel they were allowed to run after about 3 laps the motor would lose power due to detonation ...his lap times would instantly be 4 or more seconds slower ..he went from 2nd to sixth in a half a lap in moto 2 ...congratulations to Caden Braswell who won the 85cc title and the whole team for putting in some great races .and all the fast kids were there no lack of talent at all..

One thing I noticed was the everts put a photo of Liam’s bike up saying ready to race and all and it had black forks on it. Assuming it’s a set of cone valves for 85cc and in the racing video I saw what looked like stock forks. Is there a rule in the world juniors on running kit forks? Just curious, DiFrancesco didn’t have his flash looking PC forks either.

In not sure about that rule but i did notice the 3rd place finisher in 85 had black forks and the other two were stock looking so im sure you can run whatever kit u want

Even more impressive for Braswell was that he was running a stock KTM85 with an FMF pipe and his suspension and ran pump gas.
