Sideways717 Started a new thread Damn MXA...

1/27/2012 7:26pm
I read the Willy Musgrave article "Start the Four Stroke Revolution Without Me" in the new MXA and it makes me question if I really want to make the jump from 2 to 4stroke. MXA is a great magazine, don't get me wrong, Jody just makes this decision difficult because he makes a lot of sense. They also tested a...

Sideways717 Started a new thread Full recovery from collarbone surgery?

1/26/2012 6:18am
June 30th I highsided and broke my collarbone in 2 places. The middle section was shattered but the doctor let it try to heal itself. Lately I've gotten tired of not having any strength in the shoulder so I went in for xrays. It didn't heal. I have 3 seperate collarbones. My dr, appointment is in a week. The doctor...

Sideways717 Started a new thread Ergos question for all bigger 450 riders

1/24/2012 4:10pm
I was reading the new Dirt Rider's 450 shootout. They claimed the RMZ has ergos more suitable for smaller riders. This got me thinking....what bike has the best ergos for a bigger rider? I'm 6' 230lbs and want to upgrade to a 450 from my 03 RM250 in the spring. Thanks for any help!

1/17/2012 8:20pm
How much of the forks should stick out the top of the clamps, past flush. I think this may have something to do with my nervous handling RM. Bonus question...What's the stock measurement on a 03 RM 250 of the same area?

I'm a guard there. We had a kid get lost in the woods one time. He jumped a fence and walked up to one of our guards in the back 40. Scared the crap out of him!! Lol! I don't have a pic of the actual track but it's a downhill, sweeping left hander that runs up to an uphill...

Great track! The new back section is awesome! I dont ride anymore but I like to take pics on race days. The last time I shot there I really regretted selling the bike. The new design is awesome! I actually work at the nuke plant Cigaro is talking about. You can hear the bikes from the plant.
