NorCal1975 Liked a reply to forum topic Traveling from Houston to Pala for first National ever

5/5/2022 10:17pm
I have no idea what a 3 day ticket would include, when we go to a national we always get there before 8am on Saturday (1 day ticket) to stake out what we think is the best position on a hillside somewhere, then go wander around and watch practice from all different spots. Watching practice is a lot of fun for the hardcore fan. Most nationals have no limit on general tickets, so I never pay to buy them in advance to avoid the "convenience" fee, but double check on that. You can just buy them at the gate. IMO...

I have an 06 YZ450, with with a Athena 478 kit installed, everything else on the bike is stock. I cant find any jetting suggestions anywhere(including the Athena website.) She seems to be running very lean, doesn't like to start, or idle, and the head pipe glows bright red, worse then it ever did stock and more so then any...

Thanks Paw Paw. Any suggestions on where the fuel screw should be adjusted at? Lastly I do know that the exhaust gasket is bad (didnt know it would effect it like this) does the one going from the header into the slip on make a difference as well?

I emailed them. I got a reply from a real nice fella that speaks awesome Italian, but not so good English, and he told me that unfortunately there are no standard settings... and kinda wished me good luck, at least that's what I think he said at the end... lol

txmxer, overly dramatic? When was the last time you broke a patella in 3 places? Heck, Im no BobbyM but give MA a break... it wasnt like he limped off and it was ok, he obviously messed it up worse than it was, hence the 2nd surgery! Id like to see your face after that injury... then re-injury. Well, after...

WOW! I very seldom come out of my hole... but that made me make an appearence. I think that says alot about DC, and his backbone! 4-Banger, I get where your coming from... but your approach was awfully rude. I think DC is a stand up guy to take the time to answer any of our questions in an internet...

Alright how about I change the original question slightly, what do guys do to this bike to make it easier to ride supermoto? Ive seen on other forums where people take these little dirt scooters and make them into serious supermoto bikes. Surely they open up the cockpit somehow? If you cant tell, she wants to make this bike work...

Oh man y'all have done it now, txmxer I forgot to tell ya she enjoys vital too! It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who you were... so she said its on, and wanted to know how embarrassed your going to be when she shreds you (with her too short bike) on your own track? Woohoo

Well she used to have a 125sx, but just didn't like the 2 stroke hit. This bike agrees with her everywhere but in the seated position. I'm not beyond moving back to a larger bike again, but this bike is almost perfect, and Id like to do everything I can to it before I toss in the towel.

A local around the DFW area back around mid to late 80's... Jason Edwards. I don't know what happened to him, he may even still race around here, but I left with the family when my old man got a new job, then joined the Navy. Ive since moved back and have not heard or seen hide nor hair of...

Man yall are like experts on the 150R. Can you help with my issue? My wifes just wont start without some serious kicking, and even then maybe pulling it behind the truck would just be easier! Once its started it hates to warm up, but when it does it runs fine and it starts easy. Ive looked all around but...

Corpus is a fun medium sized town, thats easy to navigate, and has most everything you need, good thing cause SA and Houston, the 2 closest cities are...
