The way he was in/out of control with the front end tire shows he’s still getting used to the KTM vs the Yamaha. I just hope he rides inside his abilities once he masters the KTM. Anyone who didn’t too much time on Yamaha and is now on a KTM, knows what ... more »

It’s very early in this race, current standing don’t mean much. This year, more than years past, it seems to be a huge rubber band effect with stage finish times, that suggests the navigation is very difficult and guys in front are getting lost or putting ... more »

I know Skyler personally, he’s as hardcore as they come, on all of his bikes he takes the tires off and lubes the bibs, after every single ride, so they last much much longer

Well, maybe all the guys who actually race it are dumb also, because they usually talk about the huge disadvantages to opening a stage, and the results back up those claims, maybe the results are dumb too... ha

For me, magura has the control like a sram guide brake system, while brembo has the feel of a shamano XT system. For that reason alone, I can’t see myself on a husky anytime soon.

I’m 6’4” with a long torso and long arms. The big Yamaha fits me the best. I buy the widest and most square bar, maybe a 3/4” rise, and kinda scoot the grips about 1/4” on each side to make em wider, or my outside wrist area hurts.

Ummm, it’s a $5,500-6,000 bike, folks spending that kinda money on a fiddy are only looking for a Loretta’s plate with a 4’ tall 8 yr old... lol

I know a kid with one, he likes it much more than his cobra 50, it Visually looks much easier for him to handle, his lap times are a solid 10 secs faster... however, on full power he might get 15-20mins out of it, then, with a 120VAC power source, it ... more »

As a weekly 85cc moto dad, I do not understand mini dads all juiced up behind a PW50. In a real race, this pile of crap has to somehow navigate a track that’s been best to piss all day, The poor kid has to use horrible body positioning and basically ... more »

Stupid poor piece of crap!!! - in Eric Cartman voice

Maybe, a newer ktm big wheel 85 with the 105cc OEM kit, it’s a ripper, and it’s very reliable

Why in the damn deer shit does this forum have some many sallys focused on gear sets and what track snack factory rider Mc whogivesashit is humping? It’s weird!
