CaptainOblivious Added a reply to Ordered Part, received bill from FedEx for CBP 2 months later
4/14/2026 9:31pm Do you think that USA dealers only sell USA made parts? Clearly my post went over your head. Let’s say you buy a Regina chain from a webshop in Italy because it’s $20 cheaper.. And then find out later that you actually paid more than if you’d bought it at a dealer in the USA. You thought they were fucking...

4/14/2026 2:58pm Watch Suzuki come out with a RMZ350, electric start, A-kit suspension, etc and the people that told them they wanted it will be nowhere to be found because it’s not $6500 😂

4/12/2026 5:17pm Buy your parts from USA dealers. The tariffs have already been paid by the distributor (at wholesale prices), it ends up being cheaper for the consumer, and you’re supporting American small businesses. If it looks like the parts are cheaper to buy abroad, this is why. It’s an illusion.

4/4/2026 2:40pm Some stuff has gone up a crazy amount. Pipes , There was one price increase that happened that changed the dealer price to more than the retail was the month before! It was crazy ,ATV/UTV wheels too. they have increased so much that You pay about 2/3rds of what 4 used to cost for a single wheel now. I am seeing some wild closeout sales from distributors, so keep Your eyes open, and if You are friendly with Your local shops parts manager You might be able to grab some sweet deals on stuff over the next month or so...

4/4/2026 4:23pm Anything made of steel (bearings, bushings, clutch plates, chains, brake rotors, pipes, etc) have had a 50% tariff on them since August. For the parts made in the USA, they’re paying it on the raw materials for both steel and aluminum, so their costs have gone up huge too. If you see any parts with a steel composition still priced...

4/4/2026 1:09pm Parts prices have also gone up significantly. New bikes have gotten more expensive but the cost to rebuild one even more so, generally speaking.

3/29/2026 2:12pm Ride report #1 Underground MX Kemp TX Typical spring weekend prep. Good moisture in the track. Not tilled too deep, but deeper enough to get some decent lines forming. Threw on Scalvini Cone Pipe. ( just because they look cool). Running Renegade P97 at 32:1. Just checked a few bolts, put in gas, sent it. No sag check, just hit the track. Kid stays on the pipe pretty hard. No bogs or jetting issues. Revs to the moon with no hard drop at the end. He says it handles better than any bike he has ever ridden. ***He has ridden...

2/7/2026 11:33pm If you ordered/ purchased from my dealership I’d have you covered. I know, old school but you would have had your stuff. Keep your local dealer in mind.

12/28/2025 8:59am Oh I wasn’t even going there, it’s just the homologation rule that would need to change. Probably unintentional, but it serves as a gatekeeper that keeps the smaller manufacturers from being able to race.

12/27/2025 5:04pm Small manufacturers don’t stand a chance in meeting the AMA Pro rules, they need to have 400 of one particular model available for sale in the USA. The European brands sell more 300 2-strokes than any other model, in some cases mote than every other model combined, To bring 400 250 or 450 4-strokes to the table is no easy...

10/25/2025 11:23pm One of the best bikes I have ever owned. And I've owned every brand but Kawi. The production quality is far superior to the Austrian (half Chinese) bikes. Parts availability is better as well.

10/14/2025 3:40pm My memory failed me a little. Hangtown moto 2 he made everyone look like novices and won by 1:31, the other 4 motos were runaways but not ridiculous like that one.
