This is motocross. Anyone that should be in a higher class due to skill is sandbagging. Your buddy that is having a great day and feeling it is probably sandbagging or so the razzing should state. If you are riding a Loretta's Area Qualifier an a certain ... more »

A 16 footer? This sounds like a big fish story!

Good post Ranman. We seem to think alike in this matter. Except about Webb. I read it agn5009. Also at work, waiting for work to do.

First race was '95 on a ktm jr 50. In the middle of the race I pulled up to a jump my Dad was standing on and said I was done. Said I had to finish the race. Race to the checkers. Begrudgingly I did. Loved riding ever since.

Yeah that way he can not ride the track, but run on the outside of the tough blocks and have his bike quit in the last half a lap. Serves him right. Karma is a mo fo. Or maybe he can have his bike quit in the last corner and try to push his bike up the ... more »

Sounds like an acoustic Creed. "With arms wide opennnnn!!!!"

I went to Shawnee Honda in Oklahoma and picked up a new 2018 CRF450R. I understand there is a newer model, but I like cheaper options. Now to ride once a month, when it is not raining and the tracks are rained out.

As an Austrailian... Austrian? hahaha I can see why you don't understand. Red, white and blue is USA to 'mericans. As the race is in 'merica, red, white, and blue flares means... 'MERICA!!!!

This is Des Nations we are talking about. You can forget about AC. ; )

I thought part of the nostalgia was the "2-strokes only" idea? They aren't going to win or even top 10, regardless of two or four strokes. I was sad to see Windham riding a four stroke. Hopefully he was training on that, but had a two stroke ready to ... more »

https://youtu.be/K_MjtXlnU-k?t=5s This is me on my 02' CR 125. This bike is so much fun. Just remember to turn the gas on. If you are competitive as I am, it is a blast to pass 4 strokes while on it. But it is nice to have the excuse of it being a 125 ... more »

Oh shit!!! Is this Mr. Eppers? Damn, live on MXCRAZY/TXMotocross. Another great track to hit up is Greenville MX. It is in Greenville, TX, imagine that. Good dirt and a fun lay out. Prep is usually prime.

Change the top end 5-10 hours? Another manual thumping "rider" huh? Have fun with all your bike maintenance.

If you followed the owner's manual to the letter, you'd be doing a tremendous amount of maintenance to your bike for things that are not needed. I change the oil after every two rides, probably close to every 2-3 hours, and keep the air filter clean. ... more »

1 - 2 slide out or tip overs a riding day. Averaging 1 big hit every year or so. read as (concussion or knocked out. Haven't broken anything in years, knock on wood) Aint crashing you aint trying?

I have a '13 CRF 450 that I ride a decent amount. I have never had to change clutches on any of my 450s, never done valves on it and it still starts fine and have not done a top end on it. Other than 3 full exhaust systems for $1,000, I'd say it is a ... more »

As an "Undertaker," I think you should know that we don't WANT people to die. Just when they do, come see me! :D Curing cancer won't stop death.
