JAKEDOWN492 Added a reply to Forkner Announces Departure from Kawasaki
10/22/2024 10:49am Triumph is a sick bike. I’m interested to see the 25 model 250F. I was going to talk to the closest Triumph dealer to see if they offer a demo ride but when I looked them up they are completely closed down since the beginning of the month.

10/21/2024 2:56pm So he raced a 80/85/supermini though right? Before he switch to 125 for his last amateur year.. I only knew about him once he went pro.

10/21/2024 12:02am My opinion is it will take a big leap forward in it’s 2nd year, and the launch model is impressive but I don’t like 1st year bikes.

10/21/2024 12:00am Ping said the stock ECU is locked atm. There is 10 preset maps you can run through is what I heard. Idk much about mapping or if you could just put a Vortex or GET ECU on it and problem solved. Just quoting what Ping said on his Triumph 250 build video. I haven’t bought a EFI bike yet but...

As I said in another post, I don’t know anyone that actually owns one, but the two dealers near me both have demo bikes they let anyone ride. You should ask your dealer if they have a demo you can ride. If they don’t, you need to find a better dealer. It seems like demo rides are a big part of Triumph’s marketing strategy.

10/20/2024 11:01pm He never raced a PC bike, he rode for Factory Kawasaki, Team Green / Team Chevy Trucks Kawasaki. Although he did have access to all Mitch’s stuff, he chose the Factory Kawasaki engine over the PC engine as it had more bottom end. He did run a PC pipe and maybe some other small parts I’m unaware of but that...

8/22/2024 8:45pm I think it makes sense and I’d like to see the bike become more reliable in 2025 (in race form I’m sure the stock bike is fine).

The graphic is BS.. a visual aid for the average viewer. They have a transponder system giving the precise height data for scoring.

7/2/2024 12:03am We figured that much. That being said it doesn’t make it look any better. Show a guy being higher for the “average viewer” and 30 seconds later we’ll tell you the other guy won. Don’t worry he was actually higher the image we posted 30 seconds ago was fake for all you confused viewers at home. Trust me bro.

7/1/2024 4:31pm I can accept Creed beat him that’s not the issue. The issue was the picture of Raha being higher than they claimed Creed to be. ESPN messed up and if I was Creed I’d want a statement. Creed also had the sickest bike build IMO. The tin foil hat comment was in jest in the heat of the moment just...

I was questioning that also, yes I need glasses to see clearly, but my eyes didn't fool me when seeing colby's tire a little above creed's height. Seeing the wrong score for him was weird. I wonder what other electric bike people got screwed in a sort of way in the other competitions.

I watched the whole contest, they only used that graphic with the lines and measurements a couple times, and I think in round 2 or 3 they over laid the top 3 riders and Raha appeared lower in the graphic but was given a higher measurement. So I do not think that particular graphic was the official measurement, I do not recall them explaining how they make the official measurement. They also used different camera angles for every run so it was very hard to judge. It does suck, they used to do a good job with the X-games.

For as long as Xgames has been doing best whip and high air it baffles me as to how bad the filming is. Most of the camera angles zoom in on the rider in the air so you get no orientation of how high they are or how much they are whipping the bike. Please espn, static camera with ground in view. As far as the height, idk why they can't just tell us on the broadcast how it is measured. Is it from the ground, the top of the lip, top of the landing? How do they measure the...
