Thanks all for the excellent comments. I will do my due diligence and may get back to a couple of sellers on here. I really like that side load Outlaw 29S! I will post what I end up getting here for even more suggestions on making it mine. Some smart people in here despite the Vitard label. Super excited for this next chapter of life!

I watched the video several times and was able to figure out at 6900-6969 rpm, the jetting is 0.69% lean and makes the bike sounds like a total POS. Lol, you armchair mechanics troubleshooting this bike from a Dirt Shark video are lame, probably just jealous deep down your favorite color OEM didn't launch this bike. This thing is awesome...

We have a 2021 Thor Outlaw 29J, have owned it since new and put 55k miles on it. We have a ton of fun with it and I've appreciated its simplicity and places it can go. Garage would be full with a Harley and a moto bike, I load up a moto bike and a Norden 901 and there's a...

I have my 300 XCW setup with a 47T rear sprocket, made 3rd gear much more usable. Depends on how tight your single track is and your speed, 47 or 48 are likely good options!

Falcon Liked a reply to forum topic Sexton is not pleased with the Mark Fineis pulp interview

8/19/2026 4:56am

Sexton getting pissed about what Mark Fineis says is a bad look for himself. Dude should be focusing on getting healthy and getting back to winning, not worrying what the 14th-place guy thinks.

Plenty of bagging on bad customer service around here from dealers, to suppliers, to painters... And, a lot of it justified. BUT That's not what this post is about! Shout out to Larsons Cycle in Minnesota! https://www.larsonscycle.com/ I've been out of moto for over 15 years and got back into it this year. Larsons has been great! So refreshing to have a dealer there to take care of you. They know bikes, they know service, they know parts and they know how to take care of their customers. They stock SO much and are always competitive on prices! They helped...

DonM Liked a reply to forum topic AMA Not Paying?

7/26/2026 7:17am

Yeah I pay over 300 people every two weeks and it never fails that there is always multiple people that don't get paid and typically its because they were a new hire that either transposed some numbers on their application or put the wrong checking information on their direct deposit authorization form...so yes it happens.... and then every single year I have between 25-50 current or former employees that have left during the year that their W-2's and 1099's get returned because of wrong addresses or they lost it and need a replacement (those cost $25 a piece).....so yeah when...

Nate_Z Added a reply to 2028 KTM EXC/XCW?

7/24/2026 6:31pm

Will be curious if they launch the EXC/XCW updates for 28 or 29? Past precedent has been the SXF/XCF gets the update first and XCW gets them the following year, but we shall see!

Nate_Z Added a reply to I thought KTM was moving away from PDS rear suspension?

6/15/2026 6:08pm

I would assume that the SX and XC line gets the new model changes for 28 and then the XCW line gets the updates along with no PDS in 29, based on previous gen model updates...

3/15/2026 5:27pm

Great job by Gypsy and what a look at what a cool kid Jo is. No wonder nobody can hate him even Deegan. What an amazing and humble person. Gypsy's got a little bit of Bourdain in him in this. It's cool! https://youtu.be/ERFJRL0GL6I?si=Mc0QVdkt8bWgCOG8

Nate_Z Added a reply to Honda reports first expected annual loss in nearly 70 years

3/15/2026 5:26pm

Lots of armchair executives here, Honda has gone public with the expectation of a net loss for the whole company for the first time in 70 years. No doubt everyone across the company is being asked to tighten the belt to soften the loss, regardless of budget or not.

Trying to get some planning going to meet up with some buddies for Cleveland SX. Hoping to find a nearby track where we can ride Friday, SX Saturday and ride again Sunday. Anyone in the local area know of anything being planned?

1/16/2026 4:13pm

Recent Keefer podcast he had a tidbit at the end where he said the Kawi two strokes are coming, would assume he has some intel. Would not surprise me if they had a surprise unveil some time soon.

EBITDA profitabillity is a misleading insight...I'm sure they have high depreciation and amortization expense so by standard accounting rules still losing money. Potentially favorable from a cash flow perspective, but Warren Buffet has a very famous quote on EBITDA profitability "Does management think the tooth fairy pays for the Capex?"
