How does he like the bike? Is he comfortable on it? Looks comfortable but any pro can ride the wheels off of even a borrowed bike

One step at a time champ. Right now he just needs to worry about sprint speed over 1 lap to get into the show. Let's worry about beating him to death after problem 1 is solved.

thanks for all the kind words guys, Nathan tries really hard and gives it everything he's got all the time. He has his own 250sx that he was riding before the TSM deal. Both Nathan and Robert are comfortable on the bike and are getting more so every day. They have said that they're the best bikes they've ever ridden.

The riders are training hard, this isn't the only track they've been riding, it just so happened to be the one that was filmed haha. There will be more vids in the coming weeks don't worry.

Howerton would have to ride somewhere besides Cycle Ranch for that to be known. That kid just does it for fun, he has never taken racing seriously and who could blame him? So he will most likely go down as a practice day legend.

Nice. I think the fact that they own 250sx's themselves (laporte and Marshall) really helps because there isn't a (re)learning curve compared to guys who haven't been on a 2 stroke since y2k was in the news

Damn, that guy keeps the "his" smoker on the pipe in great fashion than a majority of fast riders manage on their tiddlers! This was therapy to watch.

The track I ride is much smaller but it does get surprisingly rough when there is quite a few people riding.
