Ummmm, why are you even watching? That was a very entertaining race. Maybe you should get into golf.

Solid first moto for Jed, started in about 15/16 I think?

It’s so wild seeing Jett get smoked so bad. As we all know on this forum 9 seconds behind first is an eternity.

ZachO one spot better than Benny. Couldn't have written that!

Just a quick update, I still made a stupid decision, clearly. It was rushed as there aren't a lot of options and I was leaving town for a week, so just saw an option for a Yz 450 and bought it. I saw someone posted a warning about jumping with the part and I definitely did not read that. The company has contacted me for pictures/info and is going to pay postage to send the part back so that they can examine it. In the end its my responsibility and not the first time a part has failed, nor will...

Did you get the free fidget spinner? That'll give you something to do while you're laid up.

They're using 7075-T6 on these, which is great for strength, but not so hot for stress corrosion cracking or mitigating crack propagation. Those aren't huge concerns, so long as: A. They don't machine in large stress risers, like the sharp internal corners exactly where this broke, and B. They don't create feather thin features for a crack to easily initiate, like they did, also where the part broke, and C. They don't laser etch their logo to act as yet another stress riser, opposite the earlier mentioned stress risers, again, right where this broke, and D. The material actually is...

I don't understand the mystery people see in all of this. You can't have: Quality materials Perfect fit Low price You can have: Quality materials Perfect fit High price or shit materials shit fit Low price

100%. I don't think we ever heard a rider/camp say they didn't want to go due to financial reasons until maybe after covid it feels like? Maybe 2021 or somewhere in there. Feels like the years of villopoto/dungey even going back before them some riders would sit out due to nagging injury or not wanting to reinjury something but never money.

There's a video on Vital I watched last night that showed the assembly line for them building the Desmo 450. It was really cool, I was pretty surprised their pricing wasn't a lot more considering Ducati.

Exactly my thoughts! I also found out my fiance is a keeper! She was as excited as I am.
