Everyone who’s ever watched Kenny ride and seen the unbelievable speed he can unleash knew that he could be a champion. So many of us have hoped it would happen, and every year you could see the spark was still in there. Well, this year Kenny turned that spark into a fire! Congratulations to the Roczens and to all of...

NESC in the 80’s and early 90’s was novice 10+2, amateur 15+2, expert 20+2 and they stuck to it pretty firmly. It would take a severe weather event to shorten motos.

I’ve had lots of 250’s Austrian and Japanese and several 300’s too over the years. I too found the 250’s to be more fun in the carb era. But with Tbi, the 300 ticks the boxes better for me. I’d say my 300sx is about as strong as my 22’ 250sx, and a 250 Tbi feels weak. The 300 can...

I’m considering building a small bore YZ myself. I notice from the pics a pretty big flywheel weight here. How big is it? I am accustomed to using weights on bikes like yz250’s when used off road for traction, what is the goal with it on the small bore? In my way of thinking it will slow the response and...

Agree on this. I was there one year where the track was rutted to hell and later in the day the ruts hardened up and were all hooked and nasty. Kenny never took a foot off his pegs and just made the whole thing flow. It was one of the most amazing rides I’ve ever seen.

Most of us roll around fearing getting pinched for being unregistered or trespassing, and here are these f-ers just doing whatever the f they please.......they ought to be painted bright green when they're released so we can at least see them coming.

Thanks for posting that. I thought I'd read it over lunch like I do nowadays when a new MXA shows up in the mail box. What I didn't realize was that there was more editorial content back then in one issue than a whole year now. Even the bike tests would take a while to get through. Very cool to...

I thought I was the only one. Still have a couple of those that came with 78-80 YZ80-100's. They still seem pretty accurate too.

2015 YZ250. The bike started intermittently running like it had a rag in the airbox. I tried all the easy things first. The air filter was clean. Cleaned and inspected the carb and the reeds, mixed fresh fuel. No luck. Then I started replacing things with parts from another YZ like the stator and the carb. Still no luck. Sometimes...
