Props to KW, but Reed dub won as an athlete. You might deny it. KW wouldn't.

Maybe you could get a Sharpie and put and asterisk next to his name as the winner, would that satisfy you?? Sure Reed had it won, but if you didn't notice he was beating his bike to death even after he had a minute lead...he is a proffesional who should have known his bike could implode riding as hard and as fast as he rode... he absolutely made the mistake... Even Emig kept saying the mechanics must be scared about the bikes... WHY? because bikes blow up in those conditions and Reed rode it too hard the last couple laps. a fatal mistake by Reed end of story.
apparently not... you forget that these are factory mechanics that have race managers over them that are going to be sure that them factory bikes get everything it needs to finish the race...
I'm sure you know more about bikes, and prepping them for mud races, than the Factory race teams. Laughable! I love arrogant keyboard jockeys!
What a fucking stupid statement!
Vital reports kdubs bike malfunctioning very early in the main, cutting out at high revs. So kdub was smart and came out ahead. give him his due, he earned it.
Sure about that?
Athlete's perform until the very end, and win getting it done.
Didn't see Reed do either.

I think by Reed jumping the jumps the last couple of laps...we was making it easier on the bike. If you jump over the ponds between the jumps, your bike takes on a lot less water. There were guys that had their bikes blow up that were riding A LOT less aggressive as Reed. I noticed the last couple of laps he was riding better and not hitting NEAR as many deep water holes.
Yes, he is a "PROFESSIONAL" and was riding to win the race.
If you think that reed's wrench didnt have the bike water proofed your pretty stupid ! Its a motor, sometimes shit breaks. Nobody can build it unbreakable.
very true, BUT with a buttload of luck

I have set a bike up to run in water deeper than they had to run in. Did I say one word about mud? Mud didn't get in the engine. It was a mess, but what would you say was the deepest water Chad rode in? I never said i knew more than anyone, but CR's bike croaked and i could set one up to finish that race, no problem. You need to stick to Billybobbin.

Obviously they didn't, unless he was running a steam engine.
I'd be willing to bet his mechanic got his ear chewed off all night though, his fault or not.
His bike didn't finish because it broke internally from extreme conditions... ..most likely from overheating.. Plugged radiators on 4 bangers that run hot anyway... duh...
I'm not a Reed fan ,but the truth is the truth.. face it...
But I did hear him yell ..."Get me a fire extinguisher and a two stroke quick!"
