Dirtstache Added a reply to Can you spare a sticker, for a kid?
6/30/2024 7:38pm I saw this the other day, looked everywhere but didn't have anymore little number plate stickers. I put them on my toolbox, bike stand, etc. to mark them.

Dirtstache Added a reply to Shootout changes needed
12/8/2023 2:14pm I would like to see two rounds. First round is just all stock with only allowing adjustments like clickers and bar position, etc. whatever adjustments you can make with what comes stock on the bike. The second round is how good can you make the bike for the specific rider. Granted you may have to reduce the number of test...
Dirtstache Added a reply to Why so many top prospects arent panning out in the sport
12/1/2023 12:07pm I think there are alot of guys that can go fast for a few laps, then guys that can go fast for the whole race, then guys that can go fast the whole race, and keep it on 2 wheels, then you have guys that can go fast the whole race and stay on 2 wheels 10 months out of...

The reason so many of today’s ‘top prospects’ don’t pan out is because there are too many ‘top prospects’ today, I think. Back in the day (I know, most people under 40 just rolled their eyes and tuned out!) there were only a few of these ‘can’t miss’ amateurs coming out, and a few years between them usually. Even the guys who eventually became superstars, like Rick Johnson, didn’t immediately get full team support in the same way that the guys today can expect after graduating Loretta’s. Look at it this way; nearly everyone is happy that a guy like...

11/29/2023 12:14pm Yea same here. I guess he's gotten shafted a few times, but he's always complaining.

11/29/2023 11:29am That's fair too, and I would be fine if that's how it was ran, but they seem to want to have it both ways. Basically the just fit the rules to create whatever situation they want based on the current crop of riders. The big teams don't want to give up their younger talent but don't yet have a place...

11/29/2023 9:22am I can't imagine why the other manufactures would vote to make it harder for a new manufacture to compete in the class.
Dirtstache Added a reply to Savatgy speaks on “the situation”
11/29/2023 9:00am I don't think Savatgy or Marchbanks should be racing 250's anymore and I think simple and fair rules would exclude them and make the 250 class what its supposed to be, a place for young riders to come up and show what they got, then move on to the 450's None of this sangbaggin stuff, or racing 10 years in...

11/29/2023 8:30am The FIM Sucks, that's why we kicked them out of the US. This comment earned me a suspension on thumpertalk. The site has gone so downhill they are down to one moderator who apparently bans people he disagrees with in-between writing HOA citations.
Dirtstache Added a reply to Threaded bar end inserts
11/28/2023 12:35pm I forget which brands I've used but main suggestion is to make sure you got the big tap wrench as it gets pretty tough to turn towards the end. I don't know if I would trust an impact/drill to tap them or if it would strip it out.
