In a perfect world the season would pick up where it left off, but given the way this virus has spread I think the reality is that we will simply pick up the season wherever we are when we get the all clear by the government & everything opens up. The idea of this really sucks because it puts a lot of pressure on the riders and worst of all what if the virus last for the entire SX season...it's up to the AMA, but I image they would have to call a champion based on the current points standings...buckle up and stay safe as this is going to be a wild & crazy ride.

Wow, this has blown up so much more than I intended, but let me clarify a couple of things based on the comments some of you have sent. Yes, Jason Anderson did win like 5 Loretta's titles, but those titles are nowhere near the riders that had the expectation ... more »

Also, Mike Alessi was not put on a 250F because he was too good for the 250F, heck the guy weighed 130lbs when they moved him up...really? He moved to the 450F because Ryan Villopoto waxed him every time!
Added reply in a thread AC in the 450 class
Mike Alessi like AC were champion prodigies since their mini days and therefore there is a much higher expectation for them than say Jason Anderson whose amateur career was average at best (but he became SC champion). These guys have won their whole ... more »

Riders are paid to win and at this rate he'll be another Mike Alessi...bet on it.
Added reply in a thread AC should be thinking retirement
Not gonna take any low ball shots at you guys but if he keeps racing my comments will come to pass. You have to know when its time to quit.
Added reply in a thread AC in the 450 class
I agree, he won't be competitive on the 450. He's a smart guy and should go to college or something because he definitely has it in him to be successful, but not as a motocross rider at this level.
Started new thread AC should be thinking retirement
Yes he's only 22, but in this sport your pretty much done at 27, so he's 5 yrs away. I agree with one of the other members that moving him to a 450 is not going to make a difference. Cooper Webb and AC had some epic battles on minis, but Webb is in his ... more »

Added reply in a thread HRC chain guide
Hey Bill, and yes they are. I've been procrastinating for months on a lot of my bike projects, but it also took me a bit of time to find the right block to work with for this chain guide. As I said, I have pretty good idea on what to do but a photo would ... more »

Does anyone have one of these chain guides or photos of it taken apart? I'm making one and I have the basic gest of it, but I'd like to see what really inside. Thanks, Mike

Your 78 Elsinore sounds sweet, but regarding jetting, I have not had my bike apart in over a year so I have no idea what jetting specs I used, but also I'm running a 34mm Mikuni and a Mugen cylinder with a Moto-X-Fox proto-pipe which is quite a bit shorter than the standard down pipe. I'm not certain my jetting would be close to what you need, sorry about that, cheers Mike

Rob, if my bike does not sell on ebay and you have time to make another I would be VERY interested. Thanks, Mike

Rob, do you make these watercooled cylinder head kits?

I had plans to build one of these and just never really got the project off the ground and now I'm selling my 77 on ebay, however my buddy Rich out in OH got it done and here are some pics of the bike. I think this is the 2nd or 3rd one of these replicas

I came across the below photo of Rick Hemme, Larry Brooks & Bruce Bunch (I'm guessing it was around 82). The Fox jersey in my auction is from same era (like the one Bruce Bunch is wearing below, the R&D jersey is similar to the one both Rick
