Hey I don't know if you guys know this, but if you don't like a particular journalist or media outlet you can choose to not consume their content. It works amazingly well.

It’s funny we’re talking about Steel City. I was messing around in the garage tonight and came across a few old photos my dad and I took (yes, with a disposable camera 😁). Also an event tee I have hanging from the first time I attended when I was 5 years old with my dad. And of course a photo of me in 2001. CR 125 and Alpinestars tech 8’s… don’t get much better than that! I need to root around the attic and see what else I have.

What is the primary reason why? Quality? Performance? Parts availability? Parts cost? Other reasons? Inquiring minds want to know...

I sell a neat book at wewentfast.com/shop that's about the 1972 World Motocross Season. I see you're in New Zealand so it would cost a lot to send down there but I've definitely sent quite a few copies to Australia. If anything, you'd probably enjoy the story behind the man who wrote the book (also available as a podcast, search "We Went Fast" in your podcast player).

Aftermarket triple clamps, for my use case on KTMs, is largely due to the sub-par (my opinion) design of the KTM steering head. Take a look at how the KTM is designed - everything is held together by that little pinch bolt on the top of the steering stem. A big "no thank you" for me on that - I'll go with the Japanese design you can get on aftermarket clamps every day of the week.

It's definitely har to find a motocross bike that's as difficult as some street and ATV ,but I'm sure the Ducati is going to make this thread when a customer attempts a valve adjustment. For fun I'll leave this for you guys

2010 YZ450F, no way that a dirt bike should have 10 pieces of bodywork...and nothing ever lined up...it was like working on a Gold Wing 1978 CB750K, getting the carbs in and out without skinning fingers or tearing an airbox boot...and then syncing them. Good times

To the OP's original question, consider Mickey Diamond. 1985 on Husqvarna, finished 15th on the 250 for the season. Signs with Honda for 1986 and becomes an immediate contender and wins the 125 championship. Dramatic turnaround. That's all I got...
