Ol' Smith says he'll buy you a cocoa next time you're at the retirement home.

OMG this is so indicative of what's wrong with today's society. Everyone looking to place blame on others, as opposed to taking responsibilty for their own actions.

The obstacle (a typical berm) was not unsafe. It's fine. I think from my perspective as someone who deals with safety/accident prevention off and on, it's the elevation of the berm. In other words, normally that berm is fine. However, IF there is an accident (throttle sticks, deegan pushes you wide, simple mistake, etc), it could go really bad. If I can put my 20/20 hindsight glasses on, you leave that turn natural with the terrain. From the photos I saw, that would make it an off-camber turn, something we've lost in motocross in the US. God forbid we have...

I did, but didn’t get a whole lot in. I missed like 5 calls for work during the time and was getting blown up about a 6” line that burst on a Fire Sprinkler system that was dumping water in a Lowe’s so I didn’t get to make the points I wanted and ask the questions I had thought of. I initially asked about the other factors he alluded to in his post here, but I don’t remember much other than him saying it was “lawsuits” and the track playing victim because Swapmoto can get insurance. I wasn’t going to...

I think some folks in this thread are confused about the difference between “cancel culture” and “voting with your wallet.” They are not the same.

Did you see the obstacle he got hurt on? It was a berm. A plain old berm. You know..... like basically every motocross track in the world has. The only negligence that took place here was RTs kid being out of control.

Suing a track is like suing Coca-Cola for giving you diabetes.

This is a ploy to get me to go back and listen to older shows and boost your viewership, I’m onto you

So suing a track isn't trying to ruin someone's livelihood?

Whoa Matthes, I’m a fan, but to say you haven’t gotten a call about this is an outright lie. I tuned in after this thread brokeout just to hear if anyone would bring it up, and they certainly did. your response was pretty much the same as it is on here, “youre not into cancel culture, but if an individual chooses not to purchase eks because of this, you get it” Maybe I’m misunderstanding your last sentence?

It’s a Honda, have they ever been known for poor reliability? That doesn’t answer your question exactly but I think you would be pretty safe, no worse than any other color.

Steve, if someone calls into your show and disagrees with you, you either brush them off, hang up, or say "I don't know man" and then, again, brush them off. Which is your prerogative, it is YOUR show. But that's probably why nobody has called in to "discuss" this. Good people (your opinion of RT, not mine. I don't know the guy) do stupid things sometimes, and that's what happened. Nobody is trying to CANCEL RT or Eks, but to a lot of people there should be consequences for what's being seen as stabbing the industry in the back. What...

Unpopular opinion: Jett would still win on Prado's bike, given a few weeks to test and set it up.

Prado pulled the biggest catfish of all time.

What proof do we have that the bike is the exclusive problem?

Its not like a top level rider to blame the bike for less then expected results

Mike Alessi could get a hole shot on that Kawi top 250s have his lap times. HP ain’t it. It’s confidence

On a factory ride, a bad bike could maybe make you go from podium positions to a top 5 or 7. What we're seeing is something more than the bike. I know he has talent to podium on any bike so we'll see if he gets it figured out.
