7/17/2008 5:35am A friend has one, they are screaming fast. Actually o.k. in the woods except for the tight and technical stuff. Not a bike of choice for off-road, but it rules when you get back on the open stuff.

7/16/2008 4:04pm I'm stoked I spelled "martyr" correctly.

7/16/2008 1:11pm The reference to South America was a joke. Who in the industry actually challenges the handful of decision makers?
mobile Added a reply to clutch perch rear brake..anyone?
7/16/2008 5:02am I ride in the woods, MX only to get laps in. It might be a great addition for me, the auto clutch sure was.

7/16/2008 5:00am Rekluse is making a pro series that will allow you to use your clutch manually, in addition they have a small lever that mounts as a clutch, leaving your hand brake lever on the clutch side in place(similar to the Clake link posted) Have you tried getting any sponsorship/discount fron those guys? I have been riding a 450, and stall...

7/14/2008 6:35pm I understand the position that DMG takes regarding adequate funding to put a bike in the Sunday race. That's where everyone wants/needs the sport to go. But that will take time and money. It does need funding/sponsorship from the outside, but that growth HAS to have the participation of the existing talent. The fact remains that outside sponsorship is not...

7/14/2008 11:27am This is a HUGE problem that can't be ignored. The logistics need to be a problem solved by the promoters, not the bank accounts of the participating teams /riders. Should an East Coast rider go back out for Washougal, or run a few Canadian rounds, local races, or stay home and train? AMA points outside of the top 10 do...

7/14/2008 9:28am Flarider's initial list makes perfect sense. -currently fans and 85% of the guys racing Sunday are treated like shit, so guess what happens? -take notes from SX, and X games, and freaking pro wrestling for that matter. -Why do a few AMA employees have so much control on race weekend? Those folks act as if they are being forced to...

mobile Added a reply to Anybody heard the one about the SX big rig?
7/1/2008 9:33am I actually meant the MX class in the SX series, guess that would be the SX class, huh. How do you really feel? I hear you though, have you noticed how many guys without factory rides are doing well this year? I like that.
mobile Added a reply to Anybody heard the one about the SX big rig?
7/1/2008 9:20am yeah, I did hear that. I also heard the gate was not full at some of the MX qualifiers

6/30/2008 8:12am Yeah, but you have to get in his head a little bit. Right now he knows he can push him out of the way. He won't beat JS with friendly riding. I don't like cheapshots, but racing ain't slow pitch softball.

6/30/2008 7:22am The two of them are a lot faster than the field. Sounds familiar. I wish MA would give Stewart less room when he is passing. JS showed no (little) respect for RC and others, when he was the guy in 2nd place. (not bashing JS, loving his style these days). MA looks fit as hell, and focused as hell. Glad...

6/25/2008 2:21pm Damn skippy. Last night my friend was so excited to fire up his '01 yz250f for me. The bike has always been sweet. He wanted to start riding it more. It would not crank. He was sweating. His '08 KTM 450SX was next to it on the stand. I pused the button. It cranked.

6/12/2008 5:53am Good Luck fellas! How did Ryno do in the pit?
You know what kind of car will go anywhere? A rental car. Most of us did some stoopid shit growing up. I give him some room, but 2 DUI's, still tearing up property while drinking, and on a race weekend at the facility! Any other sport and we would be talking about his rehab program that Yamaha is paying for...
mobile Added a reply to James Stewart is pure inspiration
6/10/2008 5:54am Yes, fastest on the planet. Good post. Poto will learn from JS for a couple of years. Thinking back to De Nations....no way anybody has the speed of JS. No way.
