Clicker numbers are almost always from fully closed so go right all the way then back it out however many clicks. The devil is in the details of the wording though so pay attention to the language used. In regards to Keefers Settings it's from all in and then 9 out.

Another vote for Tommy Searle, he does alot with Billy Bolt as well so i watch his video series even though i have no real interest in extreme enduro and if you want a mixture of the two the "2 pro 1 slow" podcast is good and they have their videos on youtube. AJ Cat is good, AC is good...

i think it's since the start of watering regularly. When i started in the summer tracks were dust fests.....then when they started watering they realised that if you don't rip it then it becomes an ice rink. It's the tracks that rip it even if it's been raining all week. I'm sure that a track that's been rained on all...

Canada always has such a good team on paper, yet it rarely translates into decent finishes. I feel sorry for the Canadian team and often they're my underdog follow. If it wasn't for the pesky Irish team, winning all the b finals and making it into the main event by the skin of their teeth. It feels like they've done...

you know some of the KTM pro racers were using an air shock as well, right? Alot of teams use Air in SX because it has the characteristics that suit it better, such as ramp up and a more dead feeling. Small bump compliance is low down the list so they can run higher pressures and cyclic heat increasing the...

It's common knowledge they have a secondary starter placed on the frame. however if he's pressed after his engine was running maybe it was a map switch for a specific map for the start? I'd love a current MXGP rider to come out and give away all the factory secrets after they retire. So much stuff that's super secret.

It has to be accessible and not cost prohibitive. This translates to more tracks and cheaper grass roots racing. Now let's be real, motorsport of any kind is always somewhat elitist due to it's nature. However the current cost of new bikes has also driven up the cost of secondhand bikes, to levels that 'average' people don't want to spend...

I'm guessing you tried leaving the Air the same and using the clickers as well? People tend to get fixated on the air pressure and ignore the fact that the forks still have compression and rebound clickers. Not teaching a grandma to suck eggs just asking the question.

don't try and argue the correct use of terms, i've tried this before and this is one that bugs me, it doesn't make any sense. To clarify: I could care less means you care I couldn't care less means you don't have the capacity to care less. I.e your Care stocks have crashed. You have zero cares. It's almost as...

Yeah i agree but even then anything can happen throughout the season that it's not a true reflection of a countries rider pool. People just need to enjoy the fact we have the ability to watch both series' and the SX on demand. Enjoy them for their differences and stop comparing. Although i enjoy the lighthearted bench racing and patriotism...

Maybe it's bike set up? Euros are known to carry better corner speed and euro products such as pipes tend to produce a stronger curve through out the RPM range although have lower Max HP increase in comparison to US products, Mainly due to the "euro style" of riding. There's no shame in acknowledging that KROC is an out and...
