He has the tendency to over-talk. Then always about when “he” raced. Stew is a natural and very modest.

My favorite part is when he repeats a point made by another guy, and elaborates on it by repeating the same things in a worse less coherent rambling two bit way.

Forgot how much I didn’t miss this dork all summer

“Time to show these guys and let your talkin’ … do it.”

Personally I don’t think the Vortex Ecu is worth it. Spent the last few weekends trying each map and ultimately ended back on the the stock ecu.

A lot of factory racers don't agree with their setup but they make the best of it and work to make it better. Prado just quit and made an ass of himself, likely because he doesn't know dick about bike setup.

Same, I usually just wait for it to go on sale at RM and grab a couple sets. I've been happy with it so far, and yea maybe it's not the sickest looking stuff but we're here to ride dirt bikes, not be fashion models.

I don’t know. He’s the one I heard say it publicly.

Just going to state the obvious and take the heat for it..... but this is why you don't rush back from a concussion in a sport that requires extreme focus and precision and where being even slightly off can have catastrophic consequences. Not a great idea for a football player either but there's not an extensive list of football players who have died or been paralyzed playing the game.

These "comparisons" are so off base it's not even funny

Either way, there is no way a factory Kawi is so bad you have to quit. Period.

One of my good friends has a 2018 KTM 350 with 280 hours. If you keep clean air filters and don’t suck dirt as well as replace parts when needed including doing regular oil changes you are probably fine IMO. I am a Yamaha guy, but I have seen some SUPER high hour KTMs just keep on trucking.

My son and I have bought/ridden eight new KTM‘s since 2010. We put well over 200 hours on each of them without ever opening up an engine. I’m old and slow, however, he’s a B . They just keep going. I took one up to 264 hours before I updated. We change oil every 10 hours and that’s it.

How many hours has everyone got now? I’ve got 103hr. Still on stock clutch, valve train, and piston pulled it down to do a head gasket as I blowed it racing an off-road race but was really surprised how good the piston looked. Only issues I’ve really had was head gasket blowed, subframe cracked at 100hr. Otherwise just normal maintence. Twin air powerflow kit, and rotella t6 15-40.

A farewell to Prado: Jorge Prado, the champ from Spain, Came to the States with dreams to reign. On his new bike, he roared with pride, But his attempt at AMA, became one pathetic ride. With Kawasaki green, he thought he’d fly, Right past the leaderboard, beneath the sky. But every race he’d fade, or drop a heavy anchor, And then blame his bike for it, oh what a rancor! He’d rev the throttle, then spin and slide, While pointing fingers, his ego wide. “It’s not my skill, it’s this damn machine!” He wailed and wailed, as fans laughed and...

You're acting like he took this big gamble, and he was hard done by. He signed a multi million three year deal. Injuries happen, crashes happen, I'd never hold that against a guy. What people will remember though is him giving up mid moto several times, while insinuating that he should and would be winning on another bike. It will also be remembered that he deliberately tried to not qualify for the last round of the season, which is about as unacceptable as it gets.
