10/1/2026 10:27am People really do poo poo the reliability of modern motorcycles for no reason. The Internet has fried our brains in that way. Every unlucky sap who has a wheel explode, front sprocket come loose, weirdo electrcal issues, etc runs to social media to bitch about it immediately. Not that they are wrong for that, you just now hear about the...

10/1/2026 10:19am Everyone keeps mentioning the low maintenance of these simple bikes but I can guarantee you if you are actually racing these things at a decent pace you are going to break way more shit than you are on a modern bike. My 2023 300XC has 100 hours on it and all I do is tires, air filters, gear oil and brake pads, service the suspension every 60-80 hours and you have a reliable bike that you aren't wasting a $50 entry fee when your bike breaks lap one.

10/1/2026 10:18am what's interesting in the play bike line is how mfg like Honda have taken the XR200 from a decent enduro bike, to a complete foo-foo bike. There are certain years in the 90s that are the "best" in terms of suspension travel (albeit with spindly 36mm forks). I had an e-start CRF230 that was a tank. Sold it and bought a '97 XR200. Like the 350's don't have a proper MX class around them, I think the manufacturers could build a 350 air cooled two stroke, kickstart, steel frame, lightweight - not restricted by AMA weight restrictions for the formal...

10/1/2026 10:17am Yea that was like #1 wackiest things to happen. James was talking about how chase looks down at his fender when riding which causes a lot of his problems. He was trying to convince ppl that is not true… and then this happened lol. No shot after that lol.

10/1/2026 7:30am In the Big Picture… As in “lifetime”…as in goin’ to Back In The Day…local stuff…LL’s…? Pretty sure it’s El Hombré. While we’re here, it’s been pretty damn nice to have witnessed his commitment to PURE UNADULTERATED SPEED & that straight up…“Just Do It!” mentality. Not to mention Beast Mode! 💪🏼🇺🇸 …all these years…we were all damn lucky to be there and witness all of it. From that debut ride on the Honda at Hangtown… Metallica at rider intros… The bow hunting and the GT3… The beautiful family… The 2 Stroke Videos… His respect for his brother’s service… All of it...

10/1/2026 7:29am Yeah man, this stuff is awesome. Especially during the off-season, considering the rest of the nonsense that tends to pop up around here. Keep it up! Won't embed for some reason, but this Tomac highlight video is pretty good. Incredible how many battles with Kenny are in there. https://youtube.com/watch?v=nswOPVwHmm4&is=0A-RWR4n7YUctgpL

10/1/2026 7:29am I ran the numbers and 695 different riders matched up with Eli Tomac in SX mains, MX overalls, and SMX overalls over the course of his whole career. Roczen (275), Barcia (275), and Anderson (269) are the three riders with the most races against Tomac. Roczen tied Barcia for the most in Tomac's last ever appearance in Ridgedale last weekend. I built a sortable and searchable table of all 695 riders on my website along with a brief history of Roczen, Anderson, and Barcia's first and last meetings with Tomac. Here are the riders with the top ten most matchups...

10/1/2026 7:17am Update Heard from my Rep yesterday, for 2027 Representative Matt Commons (district 13 which includes Attica/Badlands) will be introducing this language again, co-authored by my Rep Lori Goss-Reaves. Apparently what I started has gained some traction and others in the state are pushing their Reps to call for action. I suggest other hoosiers start calling and emailing their Representatives as well to voice support so we can get this through and protect our sport.

10/1/2026 7:16am Bumping an old thread, but as I understand it, this effort was ultimately unsuccessful. @Black Dog Moto I'm not sure if you or your club would like to make another go at it but I thought I would pass along the following info. I was in a motocross round table meeting put on last night by Mike Bambrick at fullthrottle.mx One of the presenters was an attorney from Texas who led the charge of getting similar legislation passed in his state. Matt Grynwald was his name and said he would be happy to get in contact with Indiana peoples who...

10/1/2026 7:13am Yea that was a bullshit way to leave honda and then at ktm there was no farewell message or thank you or anything at all he just unfollowed ktm on social media and that was it. Theres no reason to do shit like that, so what if you dont like the bike you still act respectful to the people who dedicated their lives to trying to help you win. He honestly acts like a baby. Leaving ktm in general was dumb as hell in general. Yea he didnt have the absolute peak top speed he had on the honda, but...

10/1/2026 7:12am Hmmm i disagree, I believe Kawi have been leaning on their talent since RC, they had RC, Js7, RV And Eli back to back to back elite level talents, these types of riders would ride well regardless of the bikes short comings therefore no development. I believe elis time at kawi is where the wheels were starting to come off(or show up), if you watch Eli on that kawi you'll notice how unsettled and twitchy the bike was during his time when he got on the Yamaha those problems were much less obvious. That being said Sexton is a rider...
