he certainly has talent.....but he is not a prado ...coenen ..herlings... gaiser ..talent
There are two Reisulis brothers. Karlis Alberts (older) was racing in MX2 gp's tgis year already. Janis Alberts Reisulis is the talented one of a decade talent like Jett, Deegz and K-Roc, Herlings and Prado. He really has a lot of skill and the work ethic. Also they have a third brother Reisulis riding the 85's. He started last year and I am pretty sure that this year will be his breakout year also. As last year he was slow. But his style and work ethic is there. So you will hear about Janis this year, mark my words. He has been a standalone guy in EmX125s and this year he was the guy to beat in EMX250
i saw him last year in Arnhem and watched the other races on mxgp tv ....yes he certainly has talent but to compare him now with prado ...coenen and herlings that's to early......
Please post a few more of these comments! After yours he just posted a photo of the bike 😜

Early yes, but he remainds me a lot of the 16 year old Ken Roczen or Paulss Jonass.
Those legends are un comparable - but he just remainds me of someone else, a world champion maybe in the future, but he definitely has something, that so many others just don't
I remember watching Karlis in MX2 at the end of 2024 and he looked so good on the bike. Perfect technique, smooth and fast, and led for a while in Switzerland if I remember correctly. But in 2025 he was barely on TV...
There was not a single yamaha guy in the picture in europe, not in mxgp and in mx2. I remember Elzinga, cause he was ramming Sascha and DeWolf when getting lapped and Benistant had a couple of top 5 races, but the rest - SAD.
I just cannot figure out, how the star effort is a powerhouse (bikewise) and the Kemea bikes are like the drool of a buffalos mouth.
isn't it just that in america there are simply better riders on yamaha........
Star Yamaha bikes are more efficient. Everybody knows that...
Efficient in the miles per gallon statistic maybe.
That star 250 engine pulls and revvs. The european bikes drown and whine
Not only the bikes. The riders aswell.
Team structure and more money are a very big plus too

Star is a little overrated IMO. Atleast in outdoors. Deegan is amazing in terms of results. Other than that, no other rider on that team are really putting any significant results on the board.
Point standings:
2025 mx the next best Star guy was Mosiman in 13th - 1 podium for Mosiman (4-4) and 1 podium for Martin other than Deegan
2024 mx the next best Star guy was Smith in 9th. - no podium for any Star rider other than Deegan.
2023 mx was good year with Cooper 2nd, Deegan 4th and Kitchen 5th.
2022 mx best result Cooper in 4th, next best Trasher in 8th.
is there a difference in noise regulations between the US and MXGP? Because what i kept hearing during the season is that the changes in noise regulations that were implemented by MXGP in 2025 caused a lot of issues for the Yamaha 250 that they could not get right.
Outdoors, only Deegan is a big step above. But not the others Star Yamaha riders.
Not the same regulation.

I'm positively surprised, Tiga looks comfy and fast on the Yamaha

He definitely looks more confortable than Herlings did in his first couple of videos on the honda. Maybe that’s why he waited a little bit more to post his. And arguably the change from a honda to yamaha is less drastic then from a ktm to a honda.
As much as I agree, he’s probably been riding a blue bike on his private track for a little while now.
Anyone with knowledge, is this a 2025 or 2026 frame? Because with Cooper Webb there is another rider who openly states that he is more comfortable on the 2025 frame. Beside the engine problems probably the biggest challenge for KEMEA Yamaha last season. They tried 2024, 2025 and custom frames...
Renaux rode partially last year with a 2022 frame...
A bit longer header on Tigas bike. That threw me for a few seconds, thinking, blimey, they've 'reversed' the top end again......... 🙃
I've yet to find pics of the LH side to see if they have something else going on that may be in use for tighter (?) noise regs.
Thanks for that - I guessed they might have another Helmholtz chamber on the LH side, in addition to the fairly long one on the RH side, with the longer header they've put on, going 'outside' of the frame.
Interesting stuff.
Gajser looks amazing in this:

Gajser and the bike needs to be on point from MXGP-Race one, otherwise you will get the same talk about Yamaha that you've now about Kawasaki in the USA. And indeed he looks good on the bike, same goes for Renaux but the question is also, how fast are the bikes.
That bike looks like a tank.
l'think it's time for glasses
