Yeah omg Honda has this revolutionary tech that the ancient Suzuki couldn’t possibly have at elevation..
Come on dude. Higher compression, more radical cam, more timing, etc
it’s insane to listen to lol
It’s generally going to the full sauce settings rather than the more rideable settings they dial back to thru testing. Everyone really thinks a suzuki can’t do that lol.
Sports media is wild.
I wish Hunter had the red plate this weekend.. Kenny is obviously at a disadvantage with the added weight of the red plate on the older slower suzuki specially at altitude. I think giving the red plate to Kenny for the last two races was Hunters plan all long because of that.
Did I get this right?
Not just bikes the riders. If you can't make 22 minutes at 5000, you're going to struggle at sea level.
It’s almost as bad as the scoop tire crap….now what about running the scoop at altitude, that might blow their minds…

Will Christien talked to an elevationologist earlier and he said it's all about knowing what elevation you need to acclimate to so that you can acclimate to the elevation. Hunter and Ken live and train at the same elevation in Florida which doesn't have elevation so they aren't able to train at elevation. What it really comes down to is who can be the best at elevation.
The jet lag, too. And the homesickness. The itchy trigger finger. The cabin fever. The butterflies in the stomach. All serious afflictions that need mentioned. *Just not whilst racing has commenced, thx.
Ad nauseum
Will they have oxygen tanks on the start along with their smelling salts?
The lack of oxygen will be biblical guys
Can't believe nobody has brought up "wind" as a factor. Who will have more experience in these conditions? Watch out for that UV Index as well.
“And what Will means by that is”
Ez up
RC’s first statement in the booth “Oh, he’s doing great considering the higher elevation. SLC is a lot further north than Denver.”
Post a reply to: Can we ez up on the elevation talk?
