like over in Europe. Stolen from some 2 Stroke Motocross site. Some TM components, Fox suspension and TGM custom touches.
Cool article, especially the last paragaph. Just some passionate motoheads giving back to the sport we all love.

You're so boring and monotonous, do you have anything interesting to say about anything other than your agenda? Even The Rock branched out once in a while.
What's even funnier is that fact that he's right.
Give it up guy's. Professional racing doesn't need to be dumbed down to make a minority few happy.
The Shop
Actually it doesn't matter. I'm done clicking on his threads so go ahead and beat the horse some more. I'll be checking out what Bobby M has to say about Alessi...
They're great bikes, but those who think that if they bitch and moan enough, they will become the norm in pro level racing again are being unrealistic.
Thanks for the post, and yes two strokes at a national level, especially a 125 only class would be great for the sport.
Matthes does not know shit. Keep up the good fight.
The OEM's would sell you pink scooters with tassles if everyone would buy them, it's all about the $, the ecconomy doesn't allow them to tie up assembly lines with two-strokes that "might" sell and the consumers have spoken with their wallets. When OEM's offered 2 and 4 strokes, the consumers chose the thumpers.
I just made a decision in my life about 20 min ago that I'm not going to be lured to click on any "too bad US mx doesn't welcome innovations" threads on Vital MX because, if it's from Newmann, it will be about 2-strokes and I have to say, I already feel better!
Pit Row
Do you know the origins of this joke Steve?
have a sense of humor guy.
i won't sit here and dream or dwell on the past, but i agree that the 2 stroke making a come back would only be a good thing for our sport, especially for the ones with normal sized wallets.
I'll quit this sport before I ride a 4 stroke.
Hows that for sales? Plenty others bailed too.
There is no future for most in this sport.
Pellegrino said it best.
He can spend a grand on soccer shit, and be 100 grand ahead of the game.
This sport has priced itself out of the market.
People finance bikes now. My Dad used to buy 4 80's a year in the crate cash..........Pellegrino mentioned this too.
With the price of fuel, etc, most cant afford to travel to races anymore.
My father said it best. Unless you are making 300K a year, your kids wont be able to do the things you did as a kid in the fashion you did it.
Bottom line show? He's spot fuckin on.
My kids wont race. Maybe ride, If I spend the kind of money it takes to race, it sure as fuck isnt going to be dirt bikes.
Hell, you have the top guys retiring, after 15 years, and they have to get a fuckin job!. In other words, THEY HAVEN'T RETIRED.
They just quit racing dirt bikes.
Just kidding, good post, and what your Dad said will surely come to be true if things continue the way they have been going
That is what motocross is supposed to sound like.
Even my GF that doesnt give a shit says 2 strokes just sound cool.
Those bike are barking!
I'm over it.
Whats the point if you only twist the throttle a 1/4 open?
Ever see a 125 pinned? I dont think these guys would be blowing past RC or Bubba on a 125 anytime soon.
Fail.
