hellion Added a reply to Regal to L&M
10/6/2010 9:56am That sucks, mainly because that kid could do some damage outdoors. I really like to watch him ride and appreciate the fact that the kid comes from not much and works his ass off. Supercross does not allow fitness to be a major factor which is his main attribute.

hellion Added a reply to How good was Robbie Reynard...
9/24/2010 6:41am Hank thanks for posting that. So cool to see that race again. That race was just as epic as I remember it.

9/23/2010 10:42am RRSis, The memory I have of Robbie is not of his injuries, even though they were many and tragic to his career. One day at Unadilla ( I forget the year ) I saw Robbie ride a motorcyle like I've never seen anyone else ride. He was using lines no one else thought of or couldn't get to, seemingly never...

9/1/2010 5:46am That's going to make the trip to the mailbox a lot less exciting. With all the other publications being monthly's my chance of just finding bills just went up dramatically.

8/30/2010 9:17am It's all a conspiracy to eventually end up with a one moto format. Also, the moto will be only 15 minutes because none of the manufacturers seem to be able to build bikes with large enough fuel tanks.

8/29/2010 2:08pm I don't know what the difference was wether it was watering or prep but the sand looked deeper than it has in many years.
hellion Added a reply to Banners, out of control?
8/29/2010 7:37am I totally agree. I am 6'4" and although I enjoyed the racing and the track was awesome, the viewing was tough. Very true that in many spots I could only see from the seat up as the riders went by and had no idea who they were. That needs to be addressed.

8/16/2010 10:36am The last time I raced there was a long time ago (other than doing the GNCC). I think it was 1991 and they still were leaving the track year to year and letting the grass cover everything. It was a lot of fun, the track changed a lot as the grass got chewed up, and the track seemed to stay...
hellion Added a reply to 2 Strokes alive in New England
8/12/2010 10:14am The cylce is almost complete. Once the 125 class makes its return (and hopefully it won't take too long) it will be like it always has been in the past; 125 class, 250 class and open class. Anyone who thinks a 450 is not an open bike is crazy. And for smaller kids and girls to have to make the...
hellion Added a reply to Pro ATV's faster than Pro bikes at redbud!
8/4/2010 9:13am I can probably ride my bicycle just as fast with training wheels on it as I can without. But I grew up and learned how to balance on just two wheels so I ditched them. Quads are for tards, period. And if you ride one and don't think you look like a tard doing it then you can thank god...
hellion Added a reply to Southwick, WTF...
6/13/2010 5:02pm I live a few minutes from the track and it poured all night long here. Being that the whole track is hilly there are usually washouts all over the place. That, and it costs too much to groom it for an open practice where sometimes they get too many people and sometimes only a few.
hellion Added a reply to Is the 350 REALLY 350cc?
5/28/2010 5:09am Can't even believe I'm wasting time reading this stupid thread. Two points; Not only do you need to use the stock cases, but you also need to have stock bore and stroke. And second, do you really think a manufacturer who's future is riding on this would cheat?
hellion Added a reply to Full Floater back in production!
5/27/2010 9:04am To this day I haven't ridden a rear suspension that worked as well as the Full FLoater did. Maybe that's because it was such a huge step up from what we rode before it. I have an old RM500 I'm going to eventually restore just to see how good it really was or is.
hellion Added a reply to This is it!!!! 150sx against 250Fs!!!!
4/17/2016 11:05pm There are three reasons I see the two stroke making a comeback. Most important, cost. Cost to buy, cost to modify, cost to maintain, plus the money you lose when you sell a worthless pile of crap at the end of the season (who really wants to buy a used up ticking time bomb anyway). Second, fun. Two strokes are...
hellion Added a reply to De Dycker wins Hangtown
5/21/2010 9:49am I didn't know they were going to have a novice class at Hangtown. Seriously, I know he's fast. But everytime I see him ride I am shocked that a guy can go that fast who looks as if he has no idea how to ride a motorcycle. Always leaning too much, elbows down, sitting in the wrong place at the...
hellion Added a reply to KTM's chromoly frame,
5/19/2010 12:44pm That must be a modern four stroke way of thinking. Looking at your bike instead of riding it your valves will last way longer. Seriously though, if you run a skid plate and the standard KTM frame guards almost no paint wears off their frame that's visible. In the bicycle world it's known that steel rides way better than even...

hellion Added a reply to CCM Factory riders not to attend USGP
5/13/2010 9:16am It does suck that they won't attend, part of what makes a GP so cool is all the different machinery. I did always think though that CCM got it backwards running Yamaha engines in KTM based chassis'. Isn't KTM known to build the best motors, and isn't Yamaha considered the benchmark at least for suspension if not handling?
