1973 Hodaka Combat Wombat, my first "real" dirt bike: Dad and me washing the bikes after a trail ride, his was a Honda SL125: After a ride, open face, rubber boots, jeans and a flannel shirt jacket...that's pretty old school (International Scout, my school driver):

If Mathes set out to get people talking, he sure succeeded in that. Has there been any reference to sources or where he may be going? This all honestly just seems like an attempt at getting people engaged and talking during the off season. This 24 hour news cycle/social media/say anything to get clicks schtick is getting tiresome in the mx realm.

Wont go MXGP.

No offense, but please make a choice of none of the above. Holy crap dude.

That’s funny you posted that because we posted this a few months ago on IG. This is me on the left interviewing Shae Bentley on the podium at Millville 1999 (I think), possibly during a morning qualifier?? But yes, just us two, standing in the dirt on the start straight, no raised podium, no sponsor backdrop, no monster girls, no logos to be seen. Super casual, but it worked and I did quite a few rounds that year and they were all similar. Just go interview those guys.

Back in the early days , “The Oly Superbowl of Motocross “. Held at the LA Colosseum. Olympia beer was the sponsor

This is like Cannondale, only with way less innovation.

True. But that Sacha run at Southwick was absolutely diabolical.

It says in the recall they are replacing the cylinder head. Kind of crazy they're not doing more about the transmission🤷‍♂️

I am going to reserve judgment until some people ride them, actual consumers. It is awesome that we have another 2 stroke option.

If you can all remember when the KTM 300SX came out in 23, it was highly anticipated….dealers sold them for top dollar….many who puffed out their chest, stating they were die hard 2 stroke riders had to have them……then a few months into owning them….many were listed for sale…with very low hrs…4-8-10 hrs….”going back to my 450”….why was this? We”ll the bikes needed some tuning….the ECU”s were not easily tuned…it took some time before tuners cracked the ECU and made improvements…I had a brand new 23 300SX…. I am a die hard 2 stroke guy….meaning I grew up on them...

I see a new business model forming from this thread. I had no idea there were people who had such a keen ear and eye that they could diagnose and basically dyno motorcycles from a video that has gone through sound editing and production edits. I could see this being a very profitable venture. Your clients could send you a video of them riding their motorcycle and you can tell them everything that needs attention. Also you guys could probably find a role at AMA races. Instead of doing a tear down to a protested bike, they could just send...

Let me turn it around for you... I believe the entire democratic party is trying to take my hard earned money and give it away to illegals and lazy people while making sure that rhere is no such thing as a criminal and all of my property and possessions are free for the takng. See how easy it is for you to sound like a blind to reality moron? There are moderates on BOTH sides of the aisle, same as there are the loud obnoxious jack wagons you only hear about it on the news feeds you choose to follow.

Your statement says more about you than it does about anyone else.

Anyone but Deegan.

I can’t wait for the day when Friese is no longer seen on race tracks.

Point system feels like childsplay.

Heck yes... more of this and less wwe pleazeee
