wwdiii Added a reply to Pirelli mid soft 2.0 reviews
6/22/2026 6:26pm I have a set of latest gen mid soft 32’s in the garage I was going to throw on my 23 250R. But I had to have another knee surgery in April and while getting over that may have ruptured a disc somehow in my back. Headed for MRI tomorrow. Depending on my back, may hang on to them. I...
wwdiii Started a new thread Anybody read any reviews got the skinny on the new 4 stroke Beta 250 RX
6/21/2026 2:53pm I’ve done a few searches but haven’t found actual ride review. Figured might be an early ride review out of Europe. Plenty of description and spect stuff but no actual rides. They should hit US dealers in Sept time frame. Anybody have anything.

6/21/2026 10:52am You do that, and I will set up a stand selling brass knuckles so people can knock out the guys buying the saws. We both profit!

wwdiii Started a new thread Thinking about MX side hustle……….selling chainsaws and air horns
6/20/2026 9:24pm Not that I need the money but some side hustle to support my dirt bike habit would please my wife. Seems like selling air horns and chainsaws without a bar and chain at national races would be a good gig. Buy chainsaws from Alibaba, marketplace or temu. Set up a stand pit side the track and flip for a decent...

I may have been raised in red dirt oil patch Oklahoma. But in the 70’s we had really good racing back then. Saturday night racing under the lights at 59th and Douglas was a blast. The 70’s was an all around blast, fast cars, good looking girls. We hunted, fished, raced MX, played sports, drank beer. Sometimes all in the...

I hate getting old but I'm very thankful to have been a teenager in the 70s. Started racing MX in 72. Had a 1969 Camaro in HS with an Sanyo 8 Track player (had a case in the back seat with 24 8 tracks). You could ride in any open field and nobody complained. And there were a lot of dirt bikes in the 70s. No internet, no social media. Just riding dirt bikes, hanging out with friends and listening to rock. Life was good.

wwdiii Added a reply to Ducati Desmo250 MX
6/19/2026 4:42am I can see where the 15k RPM will appeal to some riders. Across the board not all that necessary I’d think. If it’s an easy to ride bike with reasonable bottom end, good suspension it will sell. Vet riders represent a large chunk of sales. Some might look at a 250 Desmoto and think, if this thing can handle serious...
wwdiii Added a reply to Racing scooter for 2027 that will sell/make a splash
6/18/2026 5:18pm I’d have thrown yellow bike in the mix but I’ll believe refined/electric start modern RMZ when I see one. The sleeper for 2027 may be the 450 Honda works!
wwdiii Added a reply to Racing scooter for 2027 that will sell/make a splash
6/18/2026 2:09pm I forgot about the second injector! The new Ducati 250 checks the A class rider rev to hell and back box. But a lot of dirts bike sales are Vet riders not looking for 15k RPM. I think price and even though Ducati is a name it’s kinda boutique ish. Along with high dollar service and parts. I don’t think...
wwdiii Started a new thread Racing scooter for 2027 that will sell/make a splash
6/18/2026 1:48pm People buy racing scooter for many reasons, brand, reliability, price, vibe/cool, looks, even color and more. The two racing scooters I think will make a splash for this fall, KX327 and new 4 stroke Beta RX. They both have a lot of the stuff that triggers sales. New, lots of new cool and the right colors. People are going to...

6/16/2026 8:18am Honda is still in love with air cooled 4 strokes. Newest addition to product line is air cooled 300F.

6/13/2026 7:31am I know two things for a fact with respect to weight lose. Number one, living in the Houston area with some of the best food in the world is not conductive to weight loss………..chicken fried steak, Cajun and seafood! Number two……..Modelo Oro in bottles, $18.88 at H-E-B grocery stores.
wwdiii Added a reply to kx 450 = 350? mapping
6/10/2026 8:07pm A 450 is not a 350 and hard to make one be one from what little I know. With the plug left in my 450 KX it was still a 450 KX. I dumbed mine down by adding a 10 OZ Sheahly flywheel. I’m not a 450 guy, mine dumbed down or not it’s still too much for me. I...
wwdiii Added a reply to A little love for the YZ
6/10/2026 7:14pm I’m clueless to sales numbers for current YZ250 sales. I’d bet both Austrian and Beta numbers are better but that’s just a guess. I’d also guess if Yamaha had good sense they would scrap the kick start and add electronic’s like Beta and the new green bike but hang on to the pre mix. Pre mix seems to work for...

6/8/2026 5:54pm Me being the Vitard that started this thread. I might as well give my update. I’m down from 220 to 215. I have to laugh at myself. I started this thread and gained weight lol. Finally heading in the right direction. Knee surgery, hurt back and weight loss didn’t agree. Headed back to the back doctor next week. Getting old...
