aees Added a reply to confirmed - bruised shoulder for tomac
1/9/2018 5:31am He also smashed his head pretty hard and looks a bit unstable getting up. So maybe not much of a shoulder injury but more concussion and they dont want to say anything due to the official tests that then should take place. If he had top sit out next week, his chances are zero for a title...

aees Added a reply to confirmed - bruised shoulder for tomac
1/9/2018 4:30am Tomac must have hit neutral or something from the look of his crash. Front-end just dives after going over second bump? https://motocrossactionmag.com/eli-tomacs-crash-that-sent-him-to-dead-l…
aees Added a reply to 2016+ KTM shock spring length
1/8/2018 11:54am Correct. With same amount of preload you should get same sag. However this assumes both Springs are identical in terms of stiffness, and they will not be. It will differ a few percentage in stiffness in various lengths of the strokes since it is impossible to produce exact copies of Springs due to manufacturing process. Probably you will not notice...
aees Added a reply to OEM spring rate on 2017 Husky FC350 ?
1/8/2018 2:20am Does not matter, you can use whatever you prefer with same results (just slightly more weight with a 260mm spring)
aees Added a reply to 2016+ KTM shock spring length
1/8/2018 2:17am Spring length does not affect ride height, geometric or any other suspension parameter. It is just a longer spring, adding some weight. Stock spring is 247mm, but 255 and 260mm is also common from 3rd part and ok to use. You can still use the model where you drop the shock down and pull it out between swingarm and subframe...
aees Added a reply to How bout that Yamaha 450?
1/7/2018 2:43pm It is not about "the bike", it is about rider+bike shall work. Can promise you Roczen on stews bike would not be top 5. Look at Hill, 7th 1sec off Shane. When you are chasing 500-1000ms I can promise you details matter. You think it was Barcias mindset, or bike change that put him on podium compared to monster energy...

1/7/2018 1:29pm 15th place, 4hours on the bike in terms of both physics and testing. Not a proven factory bike but first private husky in that range - no settings to go from. Injured foot, means only thing you might have been able to do is swim, lightly to get cardio. Not been on a bike really since may. That's a freaking...

1/7/2018 9:36am He finally have a bike that he gels with. All about that. I bet he has more to come if he can dial that bike in some more. Look at Hill, jesus he is going to struggle this year on the Suzuki.

aees Added a reply to 2018 CR22 Race Bike
1/6/2018 11:52am It depends on how you calculate. For a 20min main in this weather you dont need oversized radiators, fans etc. So if you take a factory bike as is with disc guards, heavier discs, heavier braking components etc im sure you can add up another 2-6 pounds over stock specially if it comes in one shape for outdoor and you...

1/5/2018 1:31pm It was quiet clear if you listen to the whole question: He wanted to know Eli take on the new point system, good or bad.
aees Added a reply to Best place to buy WP Cone Valve Forks
1/4/2018 12:52pm No one wants to share what they thought was wrong with the stock CV valving (2017)?
aees Added a reply to Best place to buy WP Cone Valve Forks
1/3/2018 1:42pm Just a question, why are you revalving the CVs? What is it you felt was not right when you got them? I run stock valving in mine and curious how you diagnose it needs a revalve. Basically you are saying clickers, preload, springs and oil volume cant fix what you experience. Are you light weight guys, the other end of...
aees Added a reply to Anybody had problem with their fuel pump on their KTM ?
12/31/2017 8:40am can buy pumps on ebay for 50-60 usd. on my 2013 it went dead after 100h. since then i always change the big filter i side the tank connected to fuel pump package every 40h. never had a problem since then on last 4 bikes. i understand the pump can die, so full of shit that big filter is already...
aees Added a reply to Ohlins sucks now?
12/29/2017 2:39pm Just an example to give an indication, and depends on how you count. I can imagine BOM being in the 50% range, then production cost/mounting, R&D etc shall be added. I can't believe they would sell even close to 500 extra per year even if Tony Cairoli and Herlings where running Ohlins.
aees Added a reply to Ohlins sucks now?
12/29/2017 10:14am Ohlins has maybe a small van at mxgp, from the local distributor or service center. There is no support program from Sweden like WP has. I understand that, cost a shitload of money to drag a semi around the world, or even just in Europe.
aees Added a reply to Ohlins sucks now?
12/29/2017 7:31am Ohlins does not run a full Pro-program, neither in Supercross, outdoors or GPs. Almost not the target market and i understand why. They sell suspension anyway and burning say €1 million on such a program, is equal to selling maybe 500 sets of suspension just to go break even. They have had semis at GPs before, just dont think it...
aees Added a reply to Copy cat ish. How do you get carpal tunnel relief?
12/22/2017 11:16pm For you guys with numbness (not armpump), how did you get diagnosis to conclude what nerves was affected? I've done the one where they send in electrical signals and measure response time. Waiting for feedback on that now.
