Ah yes the super secret world debut of the Yamaha 350 is… riding through the woods?

Sexton looked back and did a finger gun at Webb after the finish when he was rolling the section.

Barcia tomorrow…. Always like this day.

Guess we can keep a 7 year old thread going, no? Cole Davies

A couple aged like wine (Jett Lawrence & Deegan). A couple aged like milk (Jett Reynolds)

Maybe Jett Lawrence ?

Yeah, that's why I think the Fantic will be direct competition right away. It's competition for Austrian bikes as well obviously but I see it taking Beta and Sherco sales quicker.

I see this taking a bite outta Beta & Sherco sales right away, lots of people go that route just to get the KYB suspension.

I know I’ll probably get shit on for this, but I honestly believe that if four strokes never happened, over the past decade or so, we would have seen certain prodigies distance themselves from the competition on a level similar to RC and JS. The thumpers have leveled the playing field significantly and diminished the advantage of exceptional skill.

People who spend that and more on designer, only wear it a couple of times anyway.

“RSRV” is part of the collab with Balenciaga…you know the brand using children in some inappropriate campaigns https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-11-28/balenciaga-designer-brand-contro… why Astars would associate themselves with these quacks is beyond me

Has that changed since 2022? There has been a noticeable shift in the past 2 or 3 years. I hate that anytime criticism is brought up with anything to do with FELD (Scheduling resulting in historic amount of mud races, the broadcast, etc) their point is always - "Well people are trying really hard! There's nothing we can do!". We haven't had as many mud supercross races as the past 2 or 3 years in the 10 years before that. So just all of the sudden closed stadium space is impossible to get?

Last I heard from those two they said that SX competes with other sports for stadium space. The stadiums that are covered are usually taken by bigger sports. I have no idea if that's true, I don't follow any sport that doesn't involve bikes!

wait wait but JT and Weege think everything is normal and ok. We've had like 10 mud races in the last 2 years, CLEARLY something has changed with the scheduling with open stadiums, dates, etc But according to the two "media" members that work for the production company and everything is "fine". Its all fine. The production product is fucking awful on TV we miss major moments, we've had more mudders than ever in history, but its allllll finnnneeee nothing is different its all status qou!

Have everyone bring in a bag of sand to get in the pits and then put it on the track

Hoping for something more like Seattle. Soft, rutted and technical but still race-able.

Mud races are horrible to watch

Probably because they were not riding them as if they were doing a 3 hour race

Look forward to seeing them in person. Other than simply being unique, I'm not sure the desmo valve train on a 450 will benefit 99% of owners. Just listen at the track the RPM range of most 450. Sound more like John Deere tractors than screaming engines. Tomac or Barcia might benefit!

PC’s first 4-strokes had a 2hr complete motor rebuild time. I’m sure their current motors are a better. Maybe 5hrs?
