At my previous employment I worked for a piston manufacture. We got a sample piston in from a Star 5v 250F. It was made by Cosworth and the entire piston was DLC coated. I had never seen that before.
How is the purse distributed? At the end of a long season of both supercross and motocross there will only be say 3-5 guys that really have a shot at winning. If the purse doesn't pay back into the field why would riders want to enter another 3 races ... more »
I HIGHLY doubt that he will come in over half way through the season fresh off of an injury and run top 3 right off the bat. That's very wishful thinking.
I still think they have a lot of work to do. The pro guys turn laps within a second or 2 of their fastest at the end of a 30 minute moto. All of these guys Deegan included slowed way down after about 5 laps. 5+ seconds off of there fastest lap times. ... more »
If you don't think Roczens best days are behind him than you have blinders on.
What a shit show. $30/mo is more than I pay for ANY content subscription. If they stick with Flo for 2023 than I'm out. I'll watch the highlights on Youtube.
You have one of the best looking and handling Huskys ever made. Spend the money on cone valves.
I saw him on mini's at the Baja Brawl a few years back. He was absolutely ripping. I always wondered what happened to him.
In heavy dust or sand you literally do need to change the filter every moto. Poor filter maintenance will blow anything up.
You do know that JMart is out for the season right....
Jmart dropped this news on Pulp last night. He said that he had an offer from Star but he wanted a change of scenery. He also said that he feels like he needs to heal up and finish an entire 250 season before he goes 450. I hope that he can stay healthy ... more »
What do you do for fueling? OEM in-tank pump and a 2nd injector enough for that power level on E85?
There are 2 things that I took away from watching that animated track map video. Holy crap that's a long start straight and the lap times could be 1:45-2:00.
He's definitely better than what he has been. Glancing at the RacerX Vault he has been a 12-15th place 450 guy pretty consistently over the years.
DLC is measured in microns. It's lay up thickness is far less than any bushing tolerance.

If you're having issues breathing out of your nose there is a high likely hood that you have a deviated septum. Goggles sitting on your nose just make it worse.
Are you high? The guy has already had multiple top 5 finishes in 450SX and he currently looks the best he's ever been.
Straight up beating him? Prado has won 2 motos in 3 races. Renaux has won 1. I would say they are currently on the same level. Renaux has been riding very well but Prado has also had some inconsistencies as well as a shoulder injury this year.
Prado went to the 450 class when he was 19 and won races in his rookie season. Jett is on the same progression.
