9/24/2026 7:47pm We sponsor a lot of teams and riders (about 70 total pro riders this year). That's a significant investment - about 150 sets of triple clamps and bar mounts, which has a retail value of over $170k. The teams and riders go racing, and they give us access to a shared folder if images from the races that we can use to promote our product, the team, etc. But with these changes, the teams will now have to pay $500 per race, per sponsor, per photographer(!), to give this same access. That's $15,500 each sponsor per photographer for the whole...

9/24/2026 7:46pm The bottom line is if the new rules/fees were even remotely reasonable they wouldn't be trying to hide them from the public under this veil of secrecy, the only reason they're doing it is because they know fans will tear them a new one. You don't usually have to hide it if you're doing something positive or beneficial. . .

9/5/2026 9:11am Shit...My great grandmother lived in Hemet, right next to Larry Minor's zoo. One day she asked me, my brother, and 2 of my cousins to mow her lawn. I think her property was 1-2 acres. We all agreed to do it, but didn't negotiate a price, or see the mower first. Damn mower was a push mower, no motor, just the barrel type with gears and blades so it spun faster. It took us at least 2 hours! Lawn was full of weeds, "grass", dirt and rocks. We were all toast after that. Go inside to see Naña, and she...

9/3/2026 10:50pm Growing up in La Mirada Ca, not the moto capital of the world. We were probably 4 miles from the old U.S. Suzuki building. There was a quarter “literally “ car wash on the corner of Stage and Alondra. I lived like 1/8 mile from it so I would push my 78 YZ 125 there to wash it. Well I’m guessing power washer’s weren’t around then. Every now and then a Suzuki box truck would roll in there and unload their Works Bikes. I’d be washing mine one bay over from them. Talk about being in total awe of those...

9/3/2026 10:55am It was a big drought year (1977) in California. All the lakes were super low or dry, so my Dad and his Boat/Ski Club brought their dirt bikes to Black Butte Lake instead of their boats. We were all riding around on different parts of the dry lake and it was a blast. Kids, Dads, and even some Moms, must...

8/31/2026 1:31pm Good times growing up at my parents place backing up to Quicksilver park in South San Jose (Almaden). Did a bunch a hiking up in the hills and a little dirt biking too. Some highlights: About 10-12 years old hiking back there with a buddy. We'd pack lunches/water and spend the hole day just hiking around. One time we found...

8/31/2026 11:32am Look, we all seem to get all opinionated and shitty in here; but, damn… Have you tried to survive more than 5 minutes over on the Moto side? From the Deegan insanity (actually worse than our “politics” in here!) to the simple fact that there’s 2:or 3 absolute nut-jobs making about 1/2 of all the daily posts… Well, Moto has turned to shit. So much so that we might be “The Quiet Ones” as we sling our usual shit in here. 🤣

8/31/2026 11:22am This used to be a great place to come and bench race. On occasion we’d do good things together, even tho we’d never met in person. I’ve met a lot of true Vitards in person at the races over the years, and had some fantastic experiences. But now it’s turned into a total shit show full of idiots and morans. I’ve lost count of the blocks I’ve put on people. Every thread turns into a minefield of stupidity. Thanks to so many for your support of Mayson in Sacramento and for the hookups for people you don’t even know. It...

5/13/2026 12:36am Car is ready to go pretty much, I inspected my fuel bladder and found a small tear and got the proper urethane to repair it, filled it up with fuel and zero leak so far. I also had a small oil leak coming from my oil pressure gauge nipple (I said nipple). New rear end is installed and the ball covering the u joint spins freely now, installed a drag link tether and also put the 53 front axle on that we straightened. I also ditched the extra wide left rear and put a standard one on it. Going to...

5/11/2026 8:04am Thank you for the kind words, thoughts, and encouragement peely. All noted and very much appreciated. She slept most of the visit today but with the tube being removed yesterday afternoon, it was a big effort for her body, so I understand she needed the rest. Thank you everyone for the support, it really means so much to us.💪😌❤️
