4/14/2026 11:37pm Ah yes let’s only allow people who have numerous friends in the industry, which almost certainly will make them have inherent bias be journalists. They’ll definitely want to ask the uncomfortable questions they hated and avoided during their racing career. Not to mention the lack of professional experience in that skill set. Seems to work EXCEPTIONALLY well for RC in the booth, as evidenced by the numerous threads and posts every single week…

4/14/2026 11:07pm The stock mapping on the 300 is a quick/ hard, low to mid hit, then signs off early, you learn to short shift and not over rev the bike…gearing was 14-49 when they first came out, I settled on 14-50 to use 3rd more…my 25 came with 14-46 gearing…strange rear gearing, I immediately went to a 50 rear. I have a remap from WMR KTM shop in Florida….the most power/ MX map is eye opening….bottom, mid, and top end pull for as long as you hold it open….all on pump gas 93 octane….what I like about the 300”s is map#2...

4/14/2026 11:04pm I’m pretty sure 154 was Justin’s amateur number, maybe he had that number because of Brandon Layton? RIP to Brandon and Shane Kelley, they were both friends from the PNW who passed away wayyyy too early doing what they loved.

Godcho Liked a reply to forum topic 1992 CR 125 Restoration: Photo shoot in my garage P.6
4/14/2026 11:12am The CR 125 1992 project is almost finished! Soon I will replace the Showa fork sticker with a more vintage writing. I will try to do a photo shoot before putting it in the dust this summer. Almost 15,000 visits to the reconstruction page of this bike: thank you all for following this with great interest!

4/13/2026 10:13pm Seriously. He does come off as a pretentious ass when he talks about the fan base at times, and to be fair I dont even disagree completely. We have a LOT of people in this sport that wouldn't be considered the "brightest bulbs in the room". However, when its coming from a guy whose entire career has been spent IN MOTOCROSS FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS who cant even tighten a chain?.....Come on dude. It actually befuddles me. How is he SO clueless on basic dirt bike parts? You can't change a pair of handlebars but we are the dumb...

4/13/2026 10:09pm I like Lew, he's been a nice addition to moto media. I just find this whole "investigative journalism" stuff pretty gay and a waste of time and energy. Just enjoy the racing, I don't know why we need answers to all the hypotheticals. The amount of time spent each week on podcasts, social media, etc. making predictions and assumptions that usually don't become reality literally a few days later is kind of weird. There's so many variables in motocross, those predictions almost never come true. They spent Sunday - Friday talking about what's going to happen, almost none of it...

4/11/2026 1:19am No shit…it’s turned from them having altering opinions to lew thinking everything Kellen says is wrong or stupid. As someone said above, it’s constant bickering now with a touch of information. I value what lew and kellen have to say, so it would be sick if it went back to them discussing the sport without one of them acting like the show is a waste of his time

SmoothOperator Liked a forum topic 9 years off, and Im back at it.
4/10/2026 9:42pm So I guess its been 9 years since I posted this: https://www.vitalmx.com/forums/Moto-Related,20/Sold-the-bike-and-hung-u… The itch to race has been real bad lately, so I pulled the trigger on a YZ250, and picked up my son a KLX110. We'll see how this goes at 42 🤣

Hammer 663s Liked a forum topic AMA and track insurance
4/8/2026 1:56am Washougal just announced they are requiring AMA licenses for local series races. This follows Portland International Raceway’s Thursday Night Motocross who did the same last year. PIR made the change after shutting down for 2 weeks due to their carrier dropping them. I’m sure Washougal is in the same boat. The AMA takes a lot of sh1t here for their inconsistency in penalties, much of it deserved, but without them I think we’d be losing tracks left and right. In the last 5 years I’ve seen a ton of changes at PNW tracks, all driven by insurance demands. And I...

Gravel Liked a reply to forum topic Deegan on another level
4/4/2026 9:09pm Money can’t buy speed, but it 100% can develop potential to it fullest. HD is a great example of fantastic potential, and the budget to develop it. He’s absolutely brilliant on the bike. He has had world class support from the beginning, and he’s made it work really well. Bob Hannah is a great example of a self made man, with fantastic potential that developed by his own drive and hard work. I don’t think he had the technique of HD, but his drive to win was incredible. Just my opinion, and I’ll express it without shit talking anyone else...

4/4/2026 9:01pm A real track this weekend. It is long overdue and look at how practice shook out, real practice with the riders trying different combos, lines, etc. That is how it is supposed to be.

TheMilkman Liked a reply to forum topic PC yz250 pipe talk on pulp
4/2/2026 10:19pm I can’t contribute to the differences between the two specs of the pipes. But I wanted to share a tip for keeping raw pipes looking good and easier to maintain. Clean your exhaust up really good and coat it with Cerakote wipes ($15 for 10 wipes on Amazon) and it keeps the rust off. The only place I have to touch up is the initial curved section. Very minimal scuffing in that spot then reapply and it looks perfect again. The main portion of the exhaust doesn’t get hot enough to do anything to the coating. It does give a...

4/1/2026 9:30pm For those in other parts of the country/world who say, "non-moto": It's very "moto" for us on the West Coast who ride/race Baja and serve the Rally community. If you don't care, there's plenty of Deegan threads for you to read.
