Is tha ripppaa staying in the US this summer??? I assumed he would go to Canada again

I dont think either are sandbagging but I agree it has more to do with how they will compare once they move up. In this case if I was Herlings I would, and if I was Martin I would not. Not that there's anything with making the choice Herlings did... it was conservative and now he knows for sure hes...

I had a 09 200xc, first gear was pretty low but still usable. I think I read that they were making 46 hp stock in 09? The xc-w first gear is even lower from what I've heard, and that is the only new 200 available right now I think. The xc was a not a wide ratio trans like the...

does that cancel his 24-0 ?

You're goddamn right

Soooo rumor is they are keeping him on now?

Plessinger and a few others really surprised me this year. Definitely tons of potential there, where I think Malcom has already progressed a ton and may or may not keep going. His experience and surroundings (James) have helped him a lot this year. Plessinger would only get faster if he had similar experience, IMO.

He gets me with the god stuff sometimes, but you still gotta like him!

X-ring chains are incredibly strong from my experience. Always ruin the sprockets long before the chain needs replacement, but I replace them all at once obviously.

Almost any advancements in tech are good in this sport, in my opinion. No that doesn't mean I want TC but someone might. I'm just happy someone put the time and effort (read money) into trying something new.

I don't know that some of the 15th+ 450 guys would have qualified for the 250 race

I haven't been around the moto scene as long or as much as some. I think in my area, after a large decline mainly due to land issues many years ago it actually hasn't gotten any worse. I would even say it has been a little better now that the economy is recovering. (post 2008 recession) I'm an offroad guy...

Is Husqvarna still a year behind on bike changes compared to KTM or what? Cause I thought the 250sx was suppose to be 'new' this year? I'm missing something...

Looks like you made a big improvement! New 250fs are amazing.... and I'm a 2stroke guy

9 wins. Things happen but what's done is done. Still another number 1 plate either way.

Google translate is acting up again

what neighbors

Get a TM they said... It will be fun they said... But really you have to be rich or a dumb to buy a TM in most parts of the states. Definitely need to be located near a dealer too. As far as the yz vs sx, I went with the yz for cheaper parts/maintenance. It was a little different...

Most people don't last long on the street in NJ, but I'm sure you are aware of that.
