aees Added a reply to Easy solution to the penalty problem
7/27/2026 3:47pm So you want it introduce a variabel time penalty based on what? You can't have a set one because at some point it will benefit to speed up reentry. Sorry, but doing this just awards speeding up riders getting back on the track which will just jeopardize safety for people around and on the track.

7/27/2026 9:17am 2.5 sec faster than Deegs. 4 sec on Prado. Ridiculous.

7/20/2026 4:13pm It's been plenty of times Jett has stated they done changes to bike for moto 2. I think it's more that if he isn't completely comfortable, he doesn't go bat shit crazy.

7/20/2026 1:05pm Charmichael has also said he needed to switch brands to be able to beat the Hondas back in the day. It was same then, same now. Just there wasn't even close to the amount of media and information available at that time as it is today. You where lucky if you got a comment in a magazine 4-6 weeks after...

7/20/2026 9:08am Had a different ECU, did cut out but started right up. Have ran that for 2-3y. Swapped to stock, no more issues. Guess moisture either in connectors or ECU itself.

7/13/2026 6:21am You think Bajaj went in and changed sourcing partners used to build the current factory bikes? 😂 People sometimes.

7/12/2026 12:11am Exactly my situation as well. Went with new KTM 450. Not touching that bike until they water proofed controls and wiring, and more important fixed the transmission. Know way to many people not being able to ride or race due to bike sitting with known issues.
aees Added a reply to How do you think foxhills for mxgp will be
7/9/2026 3:32pm It looks incredible narrow for being a GP track. Should have been 6-7 feet wider for sure. Local tracks have wider jumpfaces for some of the table tops. Cool layout, but think it will be incredible difficult to pass on it.

7/7/2026 2:08pm If the reservoir is toast already, drill a hole straight through reservor and put a long screwdriver or metal rod in there. Twist. Heat of course.

I don’t think their setup is a GP hangover so to speak, their style allows a softer bike. A softer bike is easier to setup and stays planted better. I know Johnny preaches a softer bike too.

7/7/2026 12:31pm Weather plays a major part. If it has been dry, and is dry now, it will be hard.

7/7/2026 12:29pm Sascha runs stock frame. So he will just get more power being on US bike then what he is used to which isn't a bad thing at southwick.

7/7/2026 6:09am Cairolis KTM 450 was basically using the same setup US riders are using for SX for the forks. Ultrastiff. Mosiman has a video on it from him test riding Cairolis bike. It varies, based on rider preference. Lawrence's are very precise so maybe they can run a softer setup in general but I don't think this is a general MXGP...

7/6/2026 2:38pm I don't think anyone, will have anything for Coenens this weekend. Of course Sacha need to stay upright. But anyone who watched Lucas and Herlings put 1min on the rest of the field a few weeks ago in sand race understands this will be Coenens show. Shit can go sideways quickly in sand, I can't see Hunter throwing it away...

7/6/2026 2:33pm Prado was almost 2 sec faster than both Jett and Hunter in moto 2. 2.09 vs 2.11. Sure Jett has some top speed, but most of all they are able to maintain the fastest lap times longer, and drop off less.

On my 25 FC350 I took the shock off and cycled the swingarm through the stroke to test chain slack. Anything less than 69mm binds. Anything more than 70mm gets noisy when riding. So I keep it 69-70mm.

6/25/2026 3:35pm If you are a racer, you know you feel it already at practise or first half of a lap after gate drop if there is a chance you can keep up or not. As Carmichael said, you could feel if a pipe was gonna work or not rolling from the pits to track entry. I think you will see him...

6/23/2026 6:45am That I don't agree with. Just watch the races in MXGP. He was challenging Herlings on 250 when Herlings was going for 250 title on sand tracks. All riders back off of they feel they don't have it, I mean Jett went from 5sec to 15 sec back on Hunter and it wasn't because Hunter went quicker. Extra effort would...

6/23/2026 5:41am Already said it, air went completely out after that DNF. Nothing to race for. Lawrence's hard to get anyway. Deegs unless he improves I think he can run with. It's early in the season, I hope he will put some extra effort into southwick and some east coast tracks at least.
