Bell helmet, O'neal gear and Gaerne boots? Just guessing.

He's been a longtime Aplinestars guy.

The 250f is actually slightly larger than the 450 dimension wise this year.......

"Its seriously a great bike i'm really enjoying it and it's awesome one of the best bike ever ridden I got on it and was super comfortable right away "

Fast forward to the 6th round of SX

Media: " so Davi what's with your results this year? they seem to have dropped substantially lower than last year"

" i've been working on set up and went the wrong way been doing a lot of testing lately trying to find a good set up"

After his contract is up.....

" Man that bike was hard to get comfortable on I could not get it set up correctly for me it would do weird things and I never feel comfortable and not even from the first time I rode it basically the bike sucked "

My thoughts: doesn't this seem to happen all too often? I'm not saying that's the reaction we will get out of Davi but just posting kind of a roundabout example and since the Yamaha YZ450 is such a polarizing bike. I kinda have to wonder if this will happen again again nothing to do with Didi just that it seems like this happens a lot with riders.

I don't remember him doing that with the old bike at JGR....and everyone else hated it.

Handling like a piece of shit. See the 1st corner took about 4 attempts to get it to turn in. And looks way too busy

What's up with the corner speed.. Zero flow.

Makes me think back to how good Wacko was through rutted corners (and everything else) this year.. Whistling

No disrespect but I'm always puzzled how crew on vital think a rider looks comfortable after looking at one shot....

and he's got more seat time than cooper.

Good for him, I like watching him in SX. Hopefully he can mix it up a little and get on the box a few times.
