Is J-Law runnin the 450? Or is he going with the 250f? Havent heard much about him for quite awhile. What's your thought's if he runs the 450? Will he be a front runner?

That is a real class in Brasil! New bikes based on 80's technology 350 Honda air cooled bikes with right side up forks etc. Its called the "national class". Sounds goofy? Looks goofy too..

This style bike in 250 and 350cc models are thick on the streets as delivery bikes and you even see them on the road going from the city to the beaches with the driver and passenger both in sandals!

I once rode a honda xl350 on a mx track, the bike bottomed out so bad it felt like the foot pegs were going to go through my boots.

Yep I would guess that is the base bike. Total crap on track in stock form but they mod those things including boring and stroking the motors and suspension mods. As weird as it sounds, that is the biggest class on any given race day!

Speaking of goofy looking bikes in Brazil, my son bought this KRM250 there.

He and his girlfriend traveled all over South America on it, even took it to Machu Picchu.

Ha! Cool bikeSmile
Some day i should start a thread about all the bikes i have pics of in Brasil. Yamasaki is one that comes to mind.. Many many odd and weird bikes. When you go into other SA countries you see even more strange brands and rarely see any on the brands we all see daily.

oldfart,

I care and so do many other caring fans. J-Law is loaded with talent, can win titles, and has won a title. It hurts my feelings to see you insult J-Law, oldfart. Please stop hurting my feelings, I love you.

I think reed was the consistant one this past series where stewy was the fast one...

J-Law is fast, but does he have the heart to work for it and stay out of trouble??

I hope so. Im not a big fan of his antics, but I hope he pulls himself away from the BS and does his job racing.

70's were bad, but damn, some of the 80's bikes were sweet.

I agree %100. If he drops all the BS antics, he will for sure be a front runner. I said "front runner" not "championship contender".
