SX-Andy Added a reply to Arm pump: a predominant issue for MotoGP™ riders
5/8/2021 5:23pm Reached a reasonably high level in mx and have done numerous track days on a 1000, I can say that, I can’t imagine the forces (particularly braking) those guys (MotoGP) deal with on a lap to lap basis. I wouldn’t put it above or below mxgp but different.

SX-Andy Added a reply to Is Factory Team Honda suffering from the Curse of the GOAT....Curse of the Bambino.
5/8/2021 4:13pm They realised that building a solid, reliable, user friendly bike, was more important than who won on Sunday on a factory special. Don’t know about over in the US but the Honda 450 is still the benchmark at club meetings.

SX-Andy Added a reply to Do SX riders get tested for weed?
4/23/2021 10:07am The real question, would it be beneficial in any way?
Comes down to risk/reward for me. Risk of catching and serious health implications/death vs an unproven vaccine. Pass for me for now. I think a lot of people will think along the same lines, I expect rules will be implemented to ‘persuade’ the masses to achieve herd immunity. It will start with traveling abroad and progress to cinemas/music concerts etc.

10/10/2020 6:25am Same reason historically radio represents or tv personalities have been well paid, it’s all about how much attention they can capture. Advantage of modern ‘influencers’ is that they are more targeted at the market segment you might want to aim your product towards.
SX-Andy Added a reply to How does Barcia not get docked..huge track cut
9/27/2020 2:45am Going by the positions lost logic, it would be ok to cut half the track after a first corner crash as long as you join at the back of the pack.
Most police are pushing for body cams. From what I've seen, its mostly the "older" officers who are against it. At my department we have a few guys who could have retired years ago, don't do a hell of a lot and are valiantly against body cams. The other 98% of the officers are all for it. The issue is the funding. The actual cameras themself aren't where the majority of the cost comes from. Its the storage space needed on the computers.

SX-Andy Added a reply to Jeffrey Herlings Update - Temporarily Paralyzed for 30 Minutes
9/26/2020 4:32pm No one knows how he will come back, including JH himself. No amount of will power and positive thinking can take away that subconscious moment of hesitation if it exists (and it may not, all these top guys are super human)

9/1/2020 3:19pm Understandable, I ended up chucking the Airbrakes on the shelf because the roll off system was so poor.

9/1/2020 12:26pm I think it’s just down to necessity for me, there are other effective alternatives that mean it is just as pointless as throwing your trash on the floor next to a bin rather than in it.
SX-Andy Added a reply to Unpopular opinion - Tear Offs
9/1/2020 11:57am Never understood the logic behind “it’s not the biggest problem so why worry about it” mentality. I know a few tracks over here that banned them a long time ago, especially those on farmers land. I wonder if the same guys walk around the pits throwing their food wrappers on the floor, its only a small bit of rubbish.

SX-Andy Started a new thread Dirt Jump Bikes
7/3/2020 5:26am Anyone on here with a bit of experience with Dirt Jump frames? I’m 6ft tall and looking at a L Commencal, I haven’t had the chance to even ride a 26” DJ so wondered how ‘roomy’ they feel compared to a bmx and mtb.
