DMS. Added a reply to Best MX event(s) you've been to in the USA

3/1/2014 6:59am
The best I’ve been to in the USA: The 1978 & 1979 Mr. Pibb MX National series came to Charlotte. Hannah always got horrible starts but systematically picked off and smoked the entire field both years. The 1999 USGP at Budd’s brought pre-race smack from Everts saying he thought the top US racers were being cowards for deciding not to...

DMS. Added a reply to Dealership theft, multiple bikes stolen

For what it’s worth, I’m skeptical about the “still in crates” rumor. I’m pretty sure I saw all those bikes on the retail floor a few weeks ago when I was in to have work done on my bike. Maybe dan586 can confirm and provide some more details.

dan586, my friends and I patronize Scott/Carolina KTM. I’ve just sent the link for this thread to all of them. I believe there are a few other folks from the area that visit this board so I’m sure the word will continue to spread. Scott and his staff are great folks and I really hate to hear this news. You’re...

DMS. Added a reply to Clavicle Surgery -Update

Go with what your Dr. is telling you. This happened last Labor Day (Sept. 3rd). I don’t have any issues, post-surgery. I was in no rush to, but riding again in December.

DMS. Added a reply to I thought used 2 strokes were cheap

Yeah, that one was the rebar wonder and sold for $11,600.00 last February. Listed as: “1975 Suzuki RH250 RH75 located at our shop in Japan. This bike is complete but will need a full restoration. The frame has been braced in 2 places, “see pictures”. Also the steering neck also has a small brace, looks to be factory or someone...

DMS. Added a reply to Weimer and his dad

The series’ previous examples of how things worked out for 2 other families amplify the risk and level of commitment Jake’s father made. Letting go of 3rd generation family farm land is heavy stuff. Troy deserves some support for this season’s work and the risks he took. I can’t find anything other than a customer service feedback link at the...

DMS. Added a reply to Any 50+ yr olds here?

55 and a firm believer in the whole “We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing” school of thought. Just wished I hadn’t played so hard this past Labor Day weekend. The bike is just fine, BTW.

For crissakes!!! This is an 18 year old that just came off his first full season of AMA SX and MX (Finishing 2nd overall in East Coast SX Lites & 4th overall in Pro MX), then schools most of the field on a 250 this past weekend. It probably felt great to tweet that and get it off his chest.

Correct, it was because of the wine & cheese in the bike crates. I think it was at least 2 days before they finally got that mess straightened out…do you remember?

Anybody else remember the bad luck he had at the Budd’s Creek MXoN? Customs impounded his bike and there were delays in getting it to the track. That, along with it being his first trip to the states, must have been a huge distraction. We definitely missed seeing TC on his “A” game that weekend. Congratulazioni Tony.

Indeed, thank you very much for sharing Katoom72! It would have been just a rainy, dreary Sat. morning at the DMS household without your generosity.
