Gobs of torque on demand from 0 rpm would be a big one.

At a significant decrease in raw performance versus the 3 motor model.

The main problem is vegans are fucking insufferable. I was a ovo-lacto vegitarian for almost a decade and l got so fucking tired of lectures from vegan assholes that l literally gave up vegetarianism completely. Hate to break it to you all but nutrition isn't a science. It isn't able to be double blind tested in meaningful way and our bodies are simply too different anyway. There are theories and anecdotal studies that take data and attempt to make something of it but that's about it. It's mostly conjecture. I have a genetic issue called hyper lipodemia and my diet...

"I do not believe we were ever meant to eat animals" I don't understand. We wouldn't have survived as a species without eating animals. We wouldn't have developed our intelligence or incredible bodies without having to hunt animals. Our evolution was driven by it and and here we are at the top of the food chain because of it, yet you believe we were suppose to forage around collecting berries or something?

The advantages of eating a vegan diet is, you are cutting out the carbohydrates. I think thats why people feel so good on this diet in the beginning. But this diet is not sustainable in the long term. I trully believe human's are meat eaters. I have followed a carnivore diet for extended periods, and the benefits are pretty amazing. I have studied both of these diets at length, and I am hard pressed to find any negative affects from the carnivore diet. Once i started mixing in intermittent fasting, the results were even better. Probably the biggest affect...

Did you try turning it off then back on again?

I have had this issue for many years. The only real relief I get is from my inversion table. I use it daily and it keeps me going. I have had back shots and the doctors always want to operate on my back, but I don't want to be cut on. Many will not agree with this, but it does work. I am 72 years old and living proof of it ability to keep you riding. Paw Paw

Best post I’ve ever seen

So to encapsulate the results for Paris SX: Barcia: 1st with he says a stock motor and chassis on what we call the "blue pig". Savatgy: 2nd running a stock motor with exhaust and suspension bits on the bike we say is too outdated. Friese: 3rd with an off-the-dealer-floor vanilla Honda. And then there are all of us Vital goofballs worrying about whether engine mounts, or ti footpegs, or factory editions will make the difference at the local track.

What's to let go? Anyone that wouldn't watch a new documentary where James talks about his career and why he left isn't a moto fan.

I feel your pain OP! A 6yo daughter and almost 3yo son. I rode 3 times last year. Rode on New Years and probably won't ride again for 4-6 months. I know the struggle all too well. Row machine is next on my list of things to get.

I have heard KTMs factory bikes are the best.. but After trying lots of new standard MX bikes, I dont think the KTMs are better than the Japanese bikes. I still prefer the japanese bikes.

KTM has done a remarkable job hiring the right people to bring their equipment competitive with the Japanese brands, and the right athletes to reverse the stigma attached to the brand. However, they are not "light years ahead" of any brand in anything except weight and Napoleonic fans.

I’ve gotten a 13th in a lites west coast main several years ago when I rode for team Slaton , basically been on my own ever since and race 450 class cause it’s better pay , I don’t do as well in it but make more money to afford to keep doing it . Gotten a few 24th place Moto finishes in outdoors on bone stock bikes living out of my van on a top ramen budget so I feel I do pretty well with what I’m working with . Random guys don’t understand how gnarly it is just to...

They sell this at homedepot, Add it to water in a bucket making it into a slurry and brush it on your bike. let it sit for awhile (the longer the better) then hose off. Your bike will look just like the pro's. .

Determining the weather can be inconsistent and is based on multiple factors that can all contribute to the actual weather and ultimately predicting the weather is as simple as that, predicting it... but it's understandable when uneducated people don't comprehend these things and blame the person trying to feed their family.
