Desert Spode Added a reply to When selling a bike
4/5/2019 5:44am Sold my bike through consignment at a local dealership. The guy who ended up buying it started and instantly starts bouncing her off the Rev limiter as if he was Justin Barcia on a 250 to "check the motor".

Go into a dealership that sells jap and Austrian. Pull one of the Jap bikes and sit it next to an Austrian bike. Pay special attention to the welds, and machining on both machines. You’ll be like....holy shit. This Austrian bike is so much nicer.

1/24/2019 7:35am True, but I feel they put so much money into their 450's and would at least try to get a guy on a 450?

(I'd take it in a heart beat) But would the team just...

Desert Spode Added a reply to Moto is on the Decline?
1/14/2019 5:17am I wonder what the purses look like 5-10 years compared to now but I do believe the sport hit a low and is starting to climb out of the financial strain or at least trying to! Kawasaki has a legit off-road team again, more riders are trying to qualify for SX (2010 A1 I remember hardly anyone compared to now...

1/10/2019 6:07pm Have you guys never read into Ivan Basso, George Hincapie, Alberto Contador, Floyd Landis, Lance Armstrong, and the whole CSC cyclying team? I mean come on that's just the tip of the iceberg and you guys can't be serious. They all admitted to it and explain that everyone else is doing it but justify that they are merely leveling the...
Desert Spode Added a reply to Will we ever see another.....
7/8/2018 2:52pm It seems almost that guys like Osborne (didn’t have the greatest start) but was able to stay afloat and come back to the U.S. much more mature physically and mentally. If he would have done well the first time he’d be in the 450’s but I feel he has an advantage over the 18/19 year olds out there. Or it’s...

6/27/2018 4:05am Anyone know why they would want to blow torch the frames? Couldn’t think of any reason other than uniformity of the polish/sanding marks?

6/26/2018 5:23pm The polo shirts are nice in the winter but in the summer they will make you way too hot and unless you hang it right of the dryer they burn pretty easy from an iron. Gotta buy a steamer.
Desert Spode Started a new thread Pikes peak style hill climb bike setup
6/26/2018 4:51pm First off let me state that I have only raced motocross/off-road but there is a pikes peak style hill climb that I plan on doing for fun. It’s mostly gravel road, tight switch backs and long straights. Does anyone have set up tips or tire type to use for this type of event? I’ve thought about going moto front tire...
