That was so cool to see that many matching outfits Especialy the second moto and it being split by one lone kawi rider number 92.
Would love to know if someone got a shot of that.

It’s about time Yamaha introduced a 350. Should sell well.

Awesome shots. I rode one of those Rock River bikes a few years ago my buddy bought. They do an awesome job of building a race bike.

I wonder what they have figured out that gives them such a reliable power advantage?

Nope...one team. Cooper, Ferrandis, Nichols, Oldenburg, and Masterpool.

They are so good for the same reason others think the 450 sucks. The reverse cylinder allows the intake tract to be very straight.

Crazy they pulled that 5 bike hole shot.

How do they afford 5 bikes (riders, mechanics, bikes, parts and all other support team). And are all 5 coming back for 2020?

I think McElrath is going blue next year IIRC. Don't know about the rest of the team.

This picture proves that their Star Racing Yamaha is as big of an advantage as there every has been in this sport.

PC Kawasaki has had a bike in the past, Team Honda in the 80’s, I’m sure there are many others but for right now, their YZ250F is it.

They are the only one who has there motor facing a certain way. And that certain way makes more sense then any other way to have a motor. Air intake at the front of the bike.

Thank you guy b. I was hoping you got it. I was thinking about you when I asked the question.
How would I be able to get a large shot of that to frame? I am doing my theater room soon and may do a motocross theme and such.

In fact how would I go about buying any of your shots over the years?

Those pictures of all the Yamaha riders out front have got to make the Star team and Yamaha very very happy. Pretty cool to see. Tough for all the other teams.

It's part rider also. KTM/Husky have HP advantage on stock bikes so assume they maintain that advantage on mod bikes?

One rider consistently fighting for top starts is a testament to his skill. But five guys outpulling the field by several bike lengths makes that bike look very good.
