Forks are super easy, used 85 clamps, and brake. You can use the ttr wheel and axle. Rear shock has alot more work, you have to loose the air filter or turn the shock around and make a linkage set up, I went with the whole rear end off the 85 so i got disc brakes. Rather ride that bike...

i canr remember what its called but pros drink it all the time. Its a nutrition/focus drink, my rider used to make one for every mechanic so they atleast had something in them to drink for the day, as far as the towel goes its so that his gloves dont get wet while drinking it.

You...

funny how everyone says how much better it would be if redbull or even rockstar would take over.Up here in canada we had rockstar take over the nationals and they do 100x better job advertising, give out more, representitives are actually there and are the nicest people in the pits. I think its time for the AMA to make some...

Ill always remember working with the otsff yamaha team and what bobby brought to it, I always thought he was so serious but he is actually one of the nicest, funniest riders youll find. My favourite memory was in Ulverton 2014, going down the start straight by the mechanics area he was going inside the track markers and nearly hitting...
