#22 tweeted/twitted/twatted that he just rode the KTM 350 for the first time a few hours ago. Typed that it "was interesting."

Lmao.. Alessi is in Australia and was riding at Reedy's track out there yesterday. I'm pretty sure since Reed has no ties to any bikes right now he just tried out Mikeys. I saw Chads tweet to and was wondering how long it would be before it hit vital..lol

That makes sense.

Could Alessi get in trouble by KTM for letting Reedy ride his bike?

Snap from DV12, crack the whip!

DV, thanks for having the balls to still come on here and post and not run home crying like some of the "industry" folks do.

You earned my respect when you manned up and said you were wrong after Dungey put the beat down on Stewart. A class act, keep up the good work.

Hey DV
Did you get to ride Reeds bikes to compare against yours and if so what was the difference if any?
Cheers

Suspension stiffer on Reedy's. Different pipe. Chad was using my outdoor engine in SX cause he was revving the S$%^ out of it! ;-)

Hey DV,

Why the steel frame over the aluminum?

Since this is an ask DV thread now.....

DV,

Lets say a rider made a tweetie that they rode a new bike that may or may not have been factory. For example, Reed saying that he rode a 350 right around the time that Alessi is at his track....

Could you get in trouble if you were a signed rider that gives free rides on a bike like that?

DV, I've heard that a lot, and even when Reed got on the new one he said he was uncomfortable going from his proven '04. I still have my '03 and love it! My favorite Bar to Bar is the '05 when the smokers were still out there and you and Voss (same team) 2 vs. 4 and blasting the A1 whoops against each other. Those were the days...

Supposedly a french factory rider in 03 got fined $30k by a Euro manager because he let another french guy ride his bike at Glen Helen... A mechanic of the factory team rat the french factory rider out to the euro team manager...

Mike Alessi would only get in trouble if Tony found out he had let someone ride his bike. Shhhh.

bang reedy saying the bike is closer to 250F than 450F KTM is not going to like that. I think it goes back to what people have been saying the 350F might be a good substitute for the 450F for average joe but the pro riders they want as much power as they can have...



Hopefully mikey gets to ride the 450f outdoor next year and rip it up! He's a hard worker and should be at the front.

Supposedly, a factory rider once complained about the fit of his riding gear so, the rep had them sew a 32 tag in his 34 pant and Voila!. Perfection!
