Head/neck trauma due to camera changing the dynamics of hoe helmet behave in a crash. That and media rights is the two top reasons.

I'm putting Tomac higher than Roczen on consistency, not crashing. Of course his problem is starts but that does not matter when he is 30sec faster in a 21-22min race. Top 10 starts and he is only subject for start crashes to stop him. Top 7 starts and he got the championship, rarely incidents within top 6-7 first lap. Specially...

they typically do 25+1. and yes, reason for not riding on beaten up sx tracks are risk of injury and it is also hard to find tracks in that shape since very few wants to ride them.

it is not by who they are manufactured that is critical. it is who designed and constructed it. you dont call iphone chinese do you? just because it is manufactured in china by foxconn. foxconn and other chinese manufactures do contract manufacturing for maybe 20-30 different us and european brands at the same time. they do from 50 usd mobile...

that filter can be bought wherever. 10 usd. should be replaced every 30h

So more or less he went to longer or shorter linkage, and with that had to go up or down in spring rate. Makes sense. It is so freaking sensitive and can make 2sec/lap easilly with those changes.

So what is it that Reed wanted, but could not change? Cant be that many items that affects the bike in that way. Not change: - Tires - Fork and shock type (valving, oil, spring dimension is ok to change) - Swingarm - Fuel injection, airbox, - Fuel tank dimensions - Cylinder, top - Clutch - Gearbox - Exhaust system...

so fucking anoying. was same last weekend for us who paid the yearly fee to get evening event streamed. it sucks.

350 to be ridden at 12000+ rpm, nothing happens before that. 450 16-17 needs quick throttle, 49 gearing and well adjusted throttle play. then map 1 is rideable and you can run at the 8-9000 rpm. 350 takes more on cardio, 450 more on muscles. i dont like the 350.

struggling with bike setup. they have it dailed for mx (hense daytona win) or it suits better for mx, but no good settings for sx. look at roczen last year, those 1-sec needed per lap is easily found in being comfortable on the bike and Tomac is not comfortable for 20 min. maybe to stiff setup that eats him up...

you could see this tendency in his bike earlier laps. to quick rebound or soft compression. turns great and good for whoops, but man it has no margin for errors or bad luck. same with stewarts setup, stiff and fast rebound but dont ride it out of shape, and be aware it can bite you on the track (stewart is...

rowing is good for some training, however it is hard to go into red zone on rower at least for me. i have 200 max heart rate. can go 180 maybe but that feels like 200 and cant go to long. unfortunately heart does not know what im training and i need the 185-195 since 190+ is where mx puts...

sure warm up can help, but it does not make a huge difference. tried simulate it with grippers also before practise but still get it. then gone for rest of day even if i skip warm up for the heat races

same for me, armpump during practise, rarely in heat later in day. was same for one of the top 250 riders 1-2 years ago, he also discovered that going all in during practise toget bad armpump, and it never comes back. most likely the blod vessels or muscleskin needs to expand a certain level to stay stretched.

where can you listen to it, cant find it?

stop over analyzing it. Tomac is solid if he fixes his starts, which he seem to have. He got armpump, my guess is that it was the cold evening (or food/water, whatever). happens a lot here when temp starts falling below 15celcius.

Husky did not cover that @ 30h

350 only, not 450.

A friend had this 450 Husky 2017 FC making sounds, also think it was a oil channel that was clogged so cam was destroyed. First time i feel i hear something of an issue with the 2016-2017 KTM 450 SXF, besides the condensator mount.

Get a different bar bend. Stock 2013-2015 handlebar is about 12mm higher. Raising the already sensitive (for twisting) bar mounts will do you no good.
