I asked CharGPt how the non US riders mentioned earlier were welcomed to the US. Response is below for that it’s worth: In short: no, the European riders like Albertyn, Langston, Tortelli, and Vuillemin were not warmly welcomed by American fans or media when they first arrived — especially not when they were hyped as “the next big thing.” They often faced skepticism, criticism, and a fair amount of “prove-it” energy from the American motocross scene. Here’s a quick summary of how they were received: 🇿🇦 Greg Albertyn Came to the U.S. in 1995 as a multi-time world champ. Faced...

It absolutely can, just depends on the swing. Lack of effort is also when you take extra vacation instead of going back to racing like Sexton. Don't see you crying about that.

I think the bike’s power is not good for him.He probably doesn’t feel comfortable with the power delivery, so he doesn’t push. He could be more diplomatic in interviews. Nicoletti doesn’t like the power on the production based bike either, so maybe it’s closer to the production profile than you would expect a works motor to be.

Your moto would be over if it had two radiators because the radiators are connected.

Meister Liked a reply to forum topic Pros/Cons of 110/90 Rear Tire on 450?

If you only care about straight line traction, sure, a 120... But in my experience, I'd rather turn better and flow through ruts without fighting the bike. Im a 30B guy and can absolutely tell the difference. Im not picky about many things, but a 110 is one of the things I am picky about. Brand new bike with a 120 gets swapped now before i even start the bike. The slight difference in bump compliance is negligible so ill lean 110 every time in that regard. I can only comment on Dunlops tho. Still get plenty of traction on...

Eddie Karlsson is putting in a good ride in Silver Class at Romainiacs this week. Most days are 5+ hours in the saddle. Does anybody know if they are swapping batteries or what?

Growing up in the motocross world made me what I was on a road race bike. Learning how to race a road race bike made me ten fold better on a dirt bike. Flat track has helped me a lot as well. I'm a big believer in cross training for fitness and bike skill

Not true at all. If you can't tell the difference my assumption is you primarily ride hard pack. 110s are MILES better when it comes to riding in ruts. The 120s catch constantly.

This! A narrower tire will turn in faster, and track better in ruts. The wider tire grabs the edges of the ruts more, and tries to climb out of them

Former road racer here, riding dirt made me so much better as a road racer it wasn't even funny. I started on street bikes and moved to dirt bikes and it was definitely a culture shock. Both sports help each other mutually, dirt bikes can't even come close to the speed of road race bikes. Coming off the back straight...

If you're intune with the geometry of your motorcycle the difference is immediate and staggering. 110 on a 450 has a significantly faster turn in feel, if you're used to a 120/80 or a 120/90 it'll feel like the is falling or dropping in on initial lean, once you're over on the edge of the tire after that initial lean...

Black flagging is the absolute correct thing to do. If the doc says you're done, then you're done. The medics are there to protect you, even from yourself. They don't care about the race, the points lead or the championship. They are there for the rider's health. I've had several concussions and been completely confused, you see knocked out fighters...
