gyd58 Added a reply to Knee braces... Too many choices
7/4/2013 7:12am My son has had several knee braces. This is what he has experienced; 1. Webb: They fit pretty good but they fell apart. They also shredded graphics with the hinges. 2. Asterisk original Cells: wore these for years, bulky but worked pretty well and lasted pretty long between rebuilds. Not bad on graphics. 3. Asterisk Ultra Cell: went through 2...

gyd58 Added a reply to Slowest and fastest big bike class at the LL ranch
6/25/2013 7:52pm I think the 250A, Pro Sport or 450A will be the fastest class. The B class usually is one of the fastest but, the B class is not near as fast as it has been in the past and is not near as deep as the A class. Still have McElrath, Bisceglia, Owen, Hampshire, Melross, Coats, Owen, Covington, Baker, Alex...
gyd58 Added a reply to Can someone explain why Jarek Balkovic was DQ'd?
5/5/2013 2:14pm The AMA has officially overturned the DQ and I can’t imagine the video not being the primary evidence they considered. If this kid is as bad as some make him out to be why would the AMA select him for the second year in a row to represent the United States in Jr Motocross World Championship? The following is a...
gyd58 Added a reply to VP110 or C12 for 125 and 250 two-strokes?
5/4/2013 3:11am VPR is a good budget fuel choice. Solid performance in 4 strokes at much less than Pro6 or MR12. I would also rather run VPR than C12 or 110 in a 2 stroke. I know a lot of people running it and it's unleaded counterpart VP T4.
gyd58 Added a reply to VP110 or C12 for 125 and 250 two-strokes?
5/3/2013 9:29pm Oxygenated fuel is legal for AMA Pro racing. VP Pro6 and Renegade SX4+ are the top legal fuels for AMA Pro racing that everyone can get and both are oxygenated. The % of oxygen is limited in AMA Pro racing not it's use. MRX02 is leaded which is not allowed in AMA Pro racing and contains more oxygen than allowed...

5/3/2013 4:25am VP MRX02 or Renegade SX2, both are specifically blended for use in 2 strokes.

gyd58 Added a reply to question about race fuel?
4/27/2013 4:06pm Your bike mapped for MR12 will have too much fuel for the other fuels and will probably not have enough timing for the other fuels either. If it is a good race 250F set up for MR12 I would not ride it with without MR12 or possibly Renegade SX4+ or VP Pro6. Ride your other bikes until you have what...

4/27/2013 10:15am armorgarage.com, great industrial epoxy coat 100% solids.
gyd58 Added a reply to question about race fuel?
4/27/2013 10:12am That is a wide spread of fuels. If your motor runs on straight MR12, running 110 non oxygenated fuel should not hurt your motor. It will not run near as well. I would mix with some non-ethanol pump and it would likely run better than straight 110 and still not be at risk of detonation. The mapping is not going...

3/23/2013 8:11pm Tamer has a really good one that has two buttons so you can set it at different levels. It also comes with a billet fork guard support to keep you from ripping the fork guard off when you set it real low. Works really good and the ring design is such that the button can latch to a very large...
gyd58 Added a reply to this could be interesting @crtwotwo
2/7/2013 4:47pm I don't know why someone would cheat with fuel on a 450 other than save money on fuel. A good motor guy can make the 450 faster than needed with legal fuel.
gyd58 Added a reply to Cole thompson no longer on kawasaki?
1/23/2013 1:50pm Cole is racing the east coast SX in the 250 class this year as a privateer. He has two CRF 250f's with BPM Racing Engines motors. Last year Cole's Honda CRF250 SX motor was built by BPM as was the Honda CRF450 motor he rode in the outdoors.
gyd58 Added a reply to Race gas and Wolf ignitions
1/18/2013 4:46am Today I would run the Renegade SX2, it is leaded makes great power and works really well in high heat and humidity. Of the VP fuels starting with least expensive, VPR, U4.4 or MRX02.
Back when my son was on 125's we dynoed different fuel combos in both his stock and mod YZ 125s and straight C12 made less horsepower...

gyd58 Added a reply to Bike brands in night program & mains...mean anything?
1/14/2013 9:54am The reason you see a lot of Hondas at this level is because their bikes are the easiest to make competitive and keep competitive through the season. This is especially true in the 250f class. The Hondas don’t win magazine shoot-outs but once you set them up properly, they can win races at a lower cost than the others.
It’s...
gyd58 Added a reply to 2013 CRF 450 with FMF duals?
12/31/2012 5:07pm You can make the 2013 CRF 450 faster than you want it using the stock cam. We have the FMF duals and the bike has a ported head, stock cam, stock valves, PSI valve springs, the cylinder has been machined, the cam properly timed, a CP piston, and mapping. It is faster than the 2011-12 crf 450's with way more...
gyd58 Added a reply to 2013 CRF 450 with FMF duals?
12/28/2012 9:21pm The FMF duals work really well. Gains mainly mid to top with bottom very close to the same. This is on a modified motor. Have not tried the duals on the stock motor.

12/22/2012 6:01am TCR can hard coat the hubs a magnesium color which looks good. Their hubs and work are first rate. Here's a pic of one.
