MPJC Added a reply to Another local track closes-And how to get youth riding again
10/23/2018 1:11pm I will add to my above post, hockey is by no means inexpensive either, which is probably why there are so many soccer fields, and they're always being used. It's easy for people to lose perspective regarding what it's like for people who simply can't afford to do the things we like to do.

10/23/2018 1:05pm I'm not sure that screen addictions are the explanation. I'm as screen addicted as my kids and I still get out and ride. Here in Canada, hockey is thriving with these screen addicted kids. I'm not saying this to justify or condone screen addiction (mine or kids'); rather, I'm just not persuaded that it's to blame for tracks closing. I'd...

10/22/2018 6:22am Exactly what I was wondering. Are a dozen or so elite riders going to pass through a membrane from another dimension? Where do people think these riders come from?

10/21/2018 4:47pm There’s a reason those guys getting lapped can qualify and I can’t: They’re fast enough and the rest of us aren’t. How fast the riders outside of the top 10 are is a product of the depth of the talent pool - a pool that is hard to crack. Anyone who wants to retire is entitled to do so. So...

10/18/2018 9:05am It's very peculiar to suggest that a world champion needs to win titles in a particular nation to prove himself. It takes a special kind of hubris to make such a suggestion.
MPJC Added a reply to 'Wrong' sag turned out to be a big improvement
10/17/2018 2:42pm This is really useful info! I just ordered a Pro Circuit link for my 2013 350 sxf. I find it feels less stable than my 2016 bike. I’ll soon find out if getting the rear to squat is really what I want. I do ride primarily on sand so I may be looking for more stability than is typical.

10/17/2018 11:33am Interesting. I guess that’s why recommended settings are best seen as a starting point from which to fine tune to your preference.
MPJC Added a reply to 'Wrong' sag turned out to be a big improvement
10/17/2018 11:15am What does "much more "harder"" mean? More preload? More compression damping is what I'd normally associate with "harder". Any chance that the sag was wrong before? Or you may have a spring that is too stiff so getting the right race sag number gives you way too much static sag, so by putting more preload on the spring you've now...
MPJC Added a reply to 250f or 450f
10/17/2018 9:07am Hated everything about the 350? That has to be overstatement, or perhaps 4 strokes aren't for you. 450s are still powerful and heavy feeling, and a 250f will be similar to the 350 but with less power. Why not just get another 250 2T?

10/15/2018 11:29am Here is presumably an adult human being explaining or justifying initiating and pursuing a discussion with the words "douchebag called me a retard". Let that sink in for a moment.

If they would do that and it becomes public, they will lose far more than 2 millions in the long run, and they know it

10/15/2018 9:24am Eli and the fan have to get paid or nobody will ever watch the MEC again. It is not in their interest to create bad publicity that would ruin an otherwise positive story that can be used to market future events. It's not like they can't afford the payout, presuming that they're smart enough to not gamble with money that...

Official no bitching thread. If you hate sx go to that guys last night sucked thread. If you like sx and mx both stay here. It was awesome to watch Vohland find ways to pass when not many could. That guy that kept going inside the tough blocks was pretty funny. Shimoda was just smooth, smart, and knew what he had to do and did it, I wish him the best. Eli put on a clinic and then the last few laps of the last race we got to see balls to the wall mode. How would u ride if...

10/14/2018 7:59am Geez, the MEC seems to have given people what they want most: something to bitch about. I had a chance to get together with some friends and watch racing for an evening - was great. I'd rather enjoy it for what it is than moan about what it isn't. If I'm lame for not noticing that it sucked, then so...
MPJC Started a new thread pre 2016 KTM Pro Circuit link
10/13/2018 1:45pm I was looking at some threads on this and noticed some discussion about needing to change the spring rate with the Pro Circuit linkage (go stiffer), but that was all in regards to the 2016 and newer bikes. Would that also apply to my 2013 bike? I couldn't find anything that would answer that question.

MPJC Added a reply to Japanese 350s
10/12/2018 7:31am They're no heavier than the pre 2016 KTMs and the 350 pulled that just fine.
