mxfanWI Added a comment about feature Industry Insights | Ft. Jeremy Scism
9/28/2023 5:26pm Darksidemx3, I read through this interview the day it came out and planned to comment at that time. Life got in the way and I am just finally coming back around to it. We live in Wisconsin and visit Arizona quite often to see relatives, escape the winter, etc. I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Jeremy at his Peoria, AZ location back in 2015 when I was out and about and came across his dealership and stopped for nothing more than to browse and kill some time. As a past rider and just overall fan of the sport, I...

mxfanWI Added a comment about video Larry Brooks on the 2023 Season | Vital MX Interview

ML512 - I listened to this interview on the way home from work this afternoon and I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it, for several reasons. First, it was straight up honest. The part where Larry points out that he was acutally scared when they signed Roczen was honest and definitely an interesting take from his perspective. Second, there was alot of good inside information - hearing how Suzuki may finally be starting to send over some information, technology and parts from Japan to this Suzuki team was cool. Lastly, I was really impressed with the way Larry interviewed...

9/16/2022 3:52pm WOW what a walk down memory lane for some of us old timers. Im dating myself here but I had the '86 RM125 back when I was in high-school. It was that bike that broke my leg, broke my arm but also got me hooked on MX and Suzuki for life. Thanks for sharing such a rad bike.

Third question by Jerome one of the best in a long time and reply from @ping an all time classic. I spit out my iced tea when I read the part about "possibly having Marvin join the party naked" damn I needed a good laugh to start the weekend thanks boys!

This was really informative. Thank you for putting this together. If you haven't already would you be open to a jetting tips segment for 2 strokes? Defining the jets, which jets do what and how to diagnose and change settings. Also some tips on cleaning carbs on 2 strokes. I ride a 2003 RM250 and am learning this stuff as I go. Thanks again.

Ping - I couldn't agree with the response on the MXGP question more. The last couple years I have started watching MXGP when I can, and the racing is awesome on some of the coolest tracks in the world (Patagonia come to mind immediately). The addition of MX World on Red Bull giving a behind the scenes view of the MXGP world, riders, series and rider's families, makes it even more rad.

mxfanWI Added a comment about press release JGR / Yoshimura / Suzuki Factory Racing Announces Team Roster for 2020
11/8/2019 4:02pm Agree 100% that this is great news!! Great job by all those on the team that worked so hard to put this together. I had the pleasure of visiting the JGR shop back in 2018 when I decided on a whim to drive up in the middle of the week, in the middle of the day to see where it was at. Front door was open so I walked in and these guys went out of their way to give me a tour of the shop from top to bottom. Class act all the way. Stoked on this news!!

Very cool video - thanks guys. An amazing amount of work that goes into what some of us just take for granted. I run FC on my restored '03 RM250 and couldn't be happier.

Great video footage of the most pristine tracks in the world, and of the sport I can't get enough of all completely ruined by the most ridiculous f*#%&g narration I have ever heard.

12/22/2017 6:53am Hi Jeff - as a late 80s and 90s era rider myself I have been a long time fan and have become an even bigger fan in more recent years. A comment and question: I wanted to say as a fan, bench racer and overall motocross enthusiast, it is refreshing to have someone directly involved in the sport, like yourself...
