My ‘82 back in ‘82. 86’d it after a few months to get the Honda. Ricky Johnson got that bike to work , but it was different for us mortals.

Savatgy is all but confirmed at Ducati.

Supposedly, Savatgy is filling the other seat.

I don't even know where to stand on this. This is three major teams in a row for Chase. Not identical in each case, but it didn't work out for any. Then there is Kawi which seems to have issues. Are the issues solely the bike, is it team management/culture/policy, I have no idea, but it's not working. This was destined to be a shit show and here we are.

You know how Matthes is aways talking about Deegan "bed bugs"? Well this thread seems chock full of Kawi Bed Bugs and Chase Bed Bugs, 😅. Personally, I don't believe the "he accidentally tapped the rear brake" theory and I kinda resent Faihe for suggesting it. But I also don't think there's a bike out there that's gonna completely eliminate the inevitable Sexton-Tuck. Can't wait to see how things play out.

This obviously isn’t all riders, but most riders are socially retarded and can’t operate without their parents because that’s their comfort zone. . Some parents don’t want to let go because it’s their kids future, and some are living vicariously through them. Tony Alessi thought he was doing what his kids needed, when in reality he was hurting them long term. RVs dad same, but Mitch and RVs manager stood up to him and made RV tell him to stop coming to races. What’s sad, is that it’s worse today than it ever was, so many amateurs are seriously coddled...

Can we flip this back over to SMX and ask who is teaming with RJ in '27 ?

Their rankings on power delivery for each pipe are exactly how I'd describe them all. Dead on. I'm glad they mentioned overrev. The Bills is definitely more "free" up top and feels like it never signs off. I've played with the main jet a bit on the PC Champ and just can't get that same feeling. Still, the Bills and PC are super close in performance and I'd run either one any day. Can't beat the R304 sound though... The core is interesting on that thing because it gets wider in the middle but is normal/skinnier width on each end...

It been this way for awhile. If you’re on the field/floor you need to be in black.

This has been around for a few years.

Cargos are tactical perfection. How dare you slander a man who runs them. Put them in camo and lookout.

Cargo pants are the go!! Plenty of pockets!

Why is that mind boggling? Different bikes, different production runs.

It's a 327. It sounds like a big bore 2stroke to me. Its not going to scream all over the place like a 125 or even a 250.
