This is NEVER going to draw public interest until they have riders lining up on that gate. And by riders i mean more than just Ken Roczen. This whole WSX thing ain't gonna work folks.

Main problem is that they don't have riders, simple as that, you are not going to convence the french motocross fanbase to watch Ken Roczen and... Vince Friese? When a few weeks ago they saw Herlings, Prado, Seewer, Febvre, De Wolf at the French GP, that they are going to see Herlings, Jett, Sexton? Deegan?, Prado, Febvre, Ferrandis? At the end of the year at MXdN and even later in the year they will see Jett, Webb, Barcia, Vialle at the París SX. Supercross is hard to grow outside the US, at least in Spain the only way to grow...

Hopefully, too much SX as it is and too many SX only contracts. Time to get back to riders doing both series and maybe knocking a couple of rounds off the current AMA SX as it is to give riders a few weeks off between series. Don’t quite get the fascination with SX over outdoor Motocross.

The whole series seems kind of meh

New term for vital: Varguing... Lol.

I thought last year was the test?

You know how everyone has been wondering how this series was making any money??? Looks like the Saudis finally found out that they are indeed not making any money. Apologies in advance but... this whole WSX deal has been a clown show from the start. Sounds like that whole group has over promised and under delivered. Unfortunately, this is a common thread within the sport.

I've said it quite a few times.....wsx isn't going to last

I would NOT want to be a part of those meetings with the investors. Yikes.

I'm no ML but that's we hear in France, unfortunately. I'm actually surprised there's no press release yet.

It's a combination of things that have led to Vialle not having the results outdoors that one would expect. 1. The 250 class has no age limit here, so it's chalked full of super fast guys of all ages. It's no joke even outdoors. 2. Bike production rule and track differences means he's having to figure out a set up from scratch. 3.The higher speeds on ama tracks combined with the crazy aggression in ama is something he has to get use to. 4. Since he came to the states, practically all of his time has been devoted to supercross...

Thanks Guys.. I know it is pretty nerdy, but you really have to spend a lot of time pouring over these details to recreate an accurate works build. I am also interested in how the technology of the MX bikes have evolved since the early 70's. The mid-70's works RC's had titanium bolts, but in those days, titanium was thought of as the kind on material you would only find on NASA spaceships , but today it is a fair common material for easily obtainable aftermarket parts. I was really interested in when Honda started using machined titanium parts on...

Heer is a pic of Roczen's straight rhythm build which is actually McGraths' old 2005 factory Honda.. You can see the HRC ti knuckle clearly.. the outward facing boss that acts as the stop when the lever folds out is ever so slightly different form the 1997-99 and 2000-01 knuckles and the easiest way to identify the different knuckles.
