I agree that rider bonuses probably should be paid by the federation, but as far as I’m aware in relation to the Olympics it sure seems like a solid chunk of the logistics behind that event are handled by the IOC with the Olympic village being utilized for accommodations for the duration of the event. I’m sure it’s possible there’s...

Understandable he wants a win bonus as he hasn't had one for a while.

If you broke them around back there’s a solid chance it would’ve helped. Personally I love mine. Definitely hot, and replacing cartridges after a deployment definitely hurts the wallet a bit. However, the cost of the unit and replacement cartridges definitely beats ER costs and missing work from a get off

Not to mention that if there’s enough chargebacks card processors either charge a larger fee to use or will no longer accept a vendor…not necessarily that I wish that upon a business providing a pretty cool service to the industry (albeit maybe done poorly in recent history) but it is on the table. If they start getting to that point...

Even the dealerships that do moto if they don’t structure their setup for selling Triumph moto correctly it’s also poor. When I put money down on my 2024 Triumph I initially went with a large local dealership well known for selling another brand of mx bikes. They had their Triumph street guy doing the MX stuff, and he had zero...

You’ve pretty much hit the nail on the head regarding the Triumphs. I’m still irritated with them about the 450 trans problem as the 250 is such a good bike minus the clutch issues (which seem a lot more rare than the trans issue after the 2 recalls)

I have no doubts that a dyno somewhere measured that, but claimed HP numbers mean very little unless they’re all done on the same dyno Not hating on the Triumph, I’ve got one from the first deliveries and still love it. All I was saying is that claimed HP numbers mean very little especially in the 250 class

I mean Triumph claims 47hp so I’m not sure how much stock you want to put into the brand’s own internal dyno numbers…

All of my deployments so far after repacking it swaps back to MX mode. Seems to sort of “factory reset” itself after repacking. May be because of turning off the internal switch when swapping cartridges

As I said in my first post in this thread this is a conversation completely aside from whether a setup tech should notice this or not. I’m not familiar enough with the exact details of the issue at hand to comment one way or the other, so I have not. I hate to tell you this, but good dealers are...

I didn’t say one way or the other? Just said it was ridiculous to essentially get an apprentice assembling and going over a brand new motorcycle that at times have a large setup fee tacked on. Don’t get me wrong, I completely understand if the senior/master tech has more important things to worry about, but it shouldn’t be what sounds...

Aside from the conversation about whether this issue should get caught during setup, that’s pretty ridiculous that for the sometimes $500+ setup fee tacked on to the price of a bike you’re getting a less experienced technician setting up and going over the bike.

I mean I’m not sure I expected anything different. But you vitards are insane. All I’ve gathered from this thread is - all foreigners are bad, except for the ones that aren’t in America - if anyone wants to ask a rider a questions they must first show they have won a supercross main event. - people are truly offended by any journalist or reporter that isn’t nutriding every rider. - people are truly offended by any journalist or reporter nutriding any rider - talking about motocross is gay. - predictions are gay. - any tweet that isn’t a tweet...
