Damn! when you look at those figures, Jett is in some pretty rare air. He really is looking like one of these Phenoms and potentially if he keeps this up in SX and MX, he's going to be much more of a legend than he already is. Enjoy it while it lasts folks, were witnessing something special and it's only...
Gosh! I just noticed, what an insult to Bob Hannah. I added Vince Friese as a joke, but I didn't think anyone would actually vote for him. When I first noticed he got a vote, I laughed because I thought maybe Vince Friese was a Vitalmx member, but now he has 19 votes, so I guess the jokes on me...

Yeah not a good idea. I think at the 2019 San Diego Supercross there were a bunch of riders that got skin rashes and damaged their bikes from lime in the dirt. I’ll take the ruts
Especially considering, perfect in his Rookie 450 MX season and his most likely winning his Rookie 450 SX Championship in what's been called the most stacked field ever, pretty much the best start in History for a AMA racer. Jett keeps proving those who doubt his greatness wrong. The New FMOTP in AMA SX & MX history.

Damn! I wish I was 58, you're very lucky. I'm 62, but I don't feel it, but I realize I am. I appreciate every year I get and don't take them for granted and just try to live a relatively healthy lifestyle. I'm at a point where I purchase some of the things I want like Dirtbikes with way more...
I agree, nobody was mentally more tough and tenacious than RC, but technically I think James Stewart and Jett Lawrence were more skilled riders, it's kind of like the unstoppable force vs the unmovable object where a whole lot of factors come into play of who would come out the Champion and get all the titles. Tenacity can only get...
There have been a few over the years, Bob Hannah, RC, JS7 and RV come to mind. It seems like we can never completely get these freaks of nature to enter a series at the same time in their primes, they just dominate for a few years and leave us amazed with their speed and mental, physical toughness. I'm wondering...

I understand, it's painful for the non-believers to acknowledge his talent. There have been Bob Hannah and Jeremy McGrath Fanboys, RC Fanboys, James Stewart Fanboys and now there are Jett Lawrence Fanboys, only difference is he's an Aussie. I'm not afraid to admit it, he's incredible to watch for his young age, literally the perfect rider on a dirtbike, what...
I don't know if you noticed this, but it seemed he was just riding behind Ken Roczen studying where he was going to make his pass and then BAM! he just lights the fires and he's gone, then backs it off after gets a comfortable lead and then just maintains it. He did the same thing at Daytona when he...

Just curious, I don't recall my KTM 350 XCF Factory edition having a backfire screen, but went and looked and realized it does. do all the other 450 manufacturers come with Backfire screens also. Getting rid of that thing makes a hell of a difference on a Honda, totally changes the characteristics of the motor and response. Awesome part, I'm...

I agree, I thought I read somewhere that the Powerflow kit filter is made of some kind of fireproof material, so that's why it's ok to remove the backfire screen and the stock isn't. Anyways! it's always cool to find a product that makes a very noticeable difference. I never thought my Honda was lacking horsepower, but I'll never refuses...

Every shootout I see rates the 22-24 Honda CRF450 in last place, but I don't care, I love the bike and the looks and it's an exciting ride, but you need to be on your game probably more than a Kawaski or Yamaha 450. I'm at an age where I'm not trying to qualify for a National, so lap times...

Anyone else install this filter kit on their bike. I put this on, because it looked like a better design then the OEM filter that came on my CRF450 and it removes the backfire screen, but I wasn't expecting the difference it made in power. Not sure how much Horsepower it adds, but my Butt Dyno says it's definitely a...
