yokev Added a comment about feature Factory Spec vs MX34 Tire | Dunlop Tire Comparison

Why do you show two obviously different bikes('26' has at the very least FCP mounts and stays, and a Yosh system, and '57' appears to be stock) doing your 'testing' but state point blank you only used one?

I'm more interested in the FCP motor mounts I see on the bike. IMO installing FCP mounts on a 450 is a total 'hero' mod. I put 'em on the same bike and noticed immediately I had noticeably more front end traction, but would like to hear what these guys felt with 'em.

Met the dude maybe 20 year ago. I had some dealer biz to take care of with his store, so on the off-chance I'd see him I drove out to Riverside myself. Walked into the showroom, dealt with who I had to deal with, then looked up and spotted him sitting in the back in a cubicle doing paperwork. Same dude we all remember from On Any Sunday, just 30-some-odd-years older(at that point). I couldn't leave without some kind of interaction with him, so popped my head into the cubicle and simply said 'hiya Malcom'. True to form, dude looked...

Some of the shit on here in entertaining, but do yourselves and more importantly the people who visit your site a favor: When you get the urge to go all Noam Chomsky and decide it's a good idea to use words like 'journalism' and 'truth' in the same sentence(nevermind inferring 'truth' is what you're in pursuit of on here), think Hunter S. Thompson and hopefully that urge will go away “Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for fuckoffs and misfits — a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little...

Maybe this is a hot take, but I'm surprised that there isn't a single new team in this line-up... I'm gonna assume this is sarcasm cuz WSX is down to what now...a 2 round 'championship series'🤣 Their only accomplishment as far as I can tell was suckering uhhhh I mean attracting sponsors for this shit show

Hopefully NBC grabs him and signs him to a long term contract. First getting his feet wet replacing that shrilly sounding English woman, then replacing Leigh fricken Diffey. Weigandt can keep the outdoors, and RC can keep the color seat. AC is smart, well spoken, and polished enough to warrant the main seat in the booth IMO

I've seen that face contorted from overwhelming pain too many times. There's something wrong when a guy racing on dirt crashes, and his injuries are in large part from him landing on concrete. I get that they wanna have a 'lane' around the outside that guys can use to get themselves back on the track after they've pulled off for whatever reason, but having exposed concrete so close to a rhythm lane of all places is insane IMO

I made the mistake of racing a 748 20+ years ago. Anyone who buys this bike to actually ride it hard and/or race it(unlike what the typical Ducati owner will do with it) is gonna be in for 'maintenance' costs that are gonna send them running back to KTM

yokev Added a comment about feature Jett Lawrence Apologizes to Jason Anderson after Altercation

1/21/2024 4:47pm
WTF would Anderson get fined? Anderson if anything, didn't do enough. The chin bar gives a shit ton of leverage against the neck, and gives them the ability to control you. While Jett may not have wanted to do any damage, he chose to grab ahold of it, and was completely responsible for anything that happened from that point forward. Someone grabs my chin bar I'm going for dislocation of their elbow as fast as I can do it.

Anthony Gobert won a WSBK race ON A BIMOTA in the rain. Ask him how 'effective' that showed he'd be on that thing in the dry. And that was a road race. An SX track is obviously a totally different animal in the dry than it is in the wet. He and his bike are too. I'm happy he won a race, and super pumped for him. That race, however, was no more of an indicator of how he will do in the upcoming (hopefully) dry races than it was for J Lawrence

RJ Hampshire on MXoN.jpg?VersionId=7Ge.V
Damn. I'm embarrassed for RJ. You lost. Own it and apply the lessons you learned from it. Don't come up with a bag of excuses, and I'm tired of everyone saying euro tracks are harder. They're not. These guys race Hangtown every year, so they're used to wet, hardpacked tracks. If they needed a refresher course, all they would've had to do is drive 10 minutes north from KTM HQ in Murrieta to LEMX

My thoughts exactly. While I've personally always disliked Honda, after seeing Sexton talk in interviews several times after he came up to the 450's, I decided I like this kid. He appears to have been brought up right, and someone did a great job schooling him on how to stay grounded- I'm gonna attribute that to his pops. Watching him go through his struggles on the Honda, and how he would ALWAYS come back fighting has made me a fan of his for good. I don't care what color this kid is on, I will always be behind him. As...

Maybe I don't follow enough social media, but who 'hates' Sexton? People are allowed to have an opinion. He crashes a lot. You cant hide from that. The reason why he crashes can be debated, but he does. I agree with Wedge, he has amazing grit to keep charging back. I hope he does well on KTM and I say that as a fan of the sport, not as a fan of any singular rider.
