Yea to some extent. You can compare deep sand to supercross, both are very very different from the US tracks that lucas oil runs on. The bike settings for real sand races (where most of the euro guys practice during weeks because of the demanding nature of those tracks) cant be compared to a hardpacked or US setup. Herlings runs...

Europe Pro riders do 60% or more riding sand. Someone like Herlings has completely different bike setup for that (even different forks). That setup and riding technique is equally different than supercross. So, either riding difference conditions and styles adds to being a better rider, or it does not. Europe rider also travel more and are exposed to more different...
The issue is the same on every level. Practice track shape, and race shape are two completely different worlds. They talked about this so many times, you can not find tracks in US that are beaten down to the level it reaches for a race. Neither do you get the same pace (read speed) during practice. In Europe you have...
So why does anyone ever go into and adjust clickers unless it helps with going faster? And number of times Dungey had these issues 2015 where he lost 2sec a lap to second motor because they went in the wrong direction. Spare me it is all in his head please and to get comfortable on the bike. Tomac shaved off...
That is exactly how it works, you missed Ironman? Tomac was adjusting x3 in panic and shaved of 2.3 sec. I guess he did that for fun. 2-3 sec per lap, easilly on setup regardless if it is 1-2mm of offset, or changing clickers. AMA Pro licens says shit, i almost had a pro licens. I "worked" with top suspension...

Has anyone ran a longer linkage, 1-2mm? I just got it this weekend but did not have time to test it. Did you run stiffer spring when just running the longer pullrod, and not completely new linkage like PC? Less SAG?

99% he ran pirelli mx32 has he always does. Same version you can buy. And yes, suspension wise there is a reason why riders like Musquin, Roczen and Herlings run smooth suspension. There is no way you can be super aggressive and successful at GP hardpacked tracks by just hammering it, tracks are slick and noes not allow it.

X20 rear is for really soft surface only, almost sand like or actual sand. Front is more versatile.

260 seems just to add a bit to much length, plus you will have trouble getting the spring on the bike without removing swingarm. 247 is 45 and 48 springs, think my 50nm was 255 and that was just about i could get it through without removing swingarm.

There is risk with everything, but i agree. Today with 50mm vision on Prospect and others it becomes less of an issue. Might be google companies that spec tear-off also. A pure roll-off business would not be as lucrative. If you get water or dirt under the film on roll-offs however, you could be completely fucked since you cant get...

Anyone else has trouble with video/audio being choppy? Not the usual poor bandwidth but like video coding issues. Have it both on my mobile and my tablet, one connected via broadband and one via 4G mobile.
