Who's back riding after a nasty wrist injury, just swapped onto an all-new bike, and is riding possibly the slickest track in California...

No, I was adding to his comment...about the ridiculousness of some comments against Davi. Sorry, I followed up sarcasm with seriousness, but I was on his side ha.

No Helmet Donut can't be him ??????
Honest question does anyone know if he's the one that started that whole trend that eventually turned into the neck brace market?

I know neck collars were around but I remember when he rode amateurs he had a big donut around the base of his helmet.

Just curious if the donut thing was his/Colleen's idea or if other riders were doing before him?

Same old song and dance just like the rest of them. Some one should make a motocross contradiction reel.

I think Davi will consistently be 5-9 with a few top 5s. I dont see him doing any outdoor races either.

I dont have your pull ML but ill try to add also, ridden elsinore on some very good bikes Wink . When you see lots of dust, it's no good, when you see no dust all its no good, when you see the perfect amount of dust, the lap before was no good and surely the next lap wont be either. Elsinore is a fun track to ride, but on multiple occasions, a guy who won multiple gps this year, would rather go ride the vet track than the main track because of how bad it can be,

I don't believe they started it. He talked about it in an interview at one point, stating that someone else produced them if I recall correctly.

Damn true, I'd rather ride the amateur track behind the SX one, then the main track there any day of the week.

IF not why would Yamaha let him run big #18's on the bike. Kind of makes a press release seem stupid

A few riders have tested or rode bikes with their numbers ahead of official PRs...odd, but it happens.
Never happens...haha I think you put a number on a bike and psychologically it becomes theirs.

So how come the Big Blue Pig seems to work great when its in Europe (Anstie & Febrve) and it sucks so bad on US soil?

Were they on true works bikes or just production based frames like our guys?

Can't Cheese McCarty call and get some settings?

Who else thinks US Yamaha is getting visited by Karma for holding their breath in the 80's until the AMA caved and instituted the "production rule"?

Nobody worth a damn has raced one in the 450 class since Stewart. The top talent has been on other brands.

That bike, # and gear setup. One of my all time favorites.
