Nice motocros race, how much power have this machines?
These are seriously custom bikes in the pro races.. We are talking full titanium bolts, carbon parts etc. On paper they are 450cc and 250cc but in reality they are probably bored out and ported to 30-40 more than that with rumbled gearboxes etc.
NIce job... I'm impressed MX getting so upvoted. In my youth I lived and breathed MX and raced a LOT of the Northern Cal tracks of the 1970s such as Sand Hill Ranch, Sears Point, Hangtown, Hollister Hills, Fremont, and some I can't even remember. I used to see Danny Magoo Chandler at the races all of the time and feel blessed for those memories. I still have a few of my trophies and even have a Husqvarna TE 250 that I don't ride enough. I have been following the current scene for a few years with a lot of interest, and I am now an Eli Tomac fan since seeing his speed on the Kaw 250 a few years ago at Washougal (I live in Portland). Roczen is riding like DeCoster... I bet RC is so miffed he let KR get away from KTM. This is a killer outdoor season so far, even with Dungey out.
Put up some vids for Washougal... I will look for them here rather than VitalMX or whatever and upvote you.
DeCoster has always championed Roczen since he was in the youth system which is why i was very surprised he moved on! He has had so much success with KTM it was a real blow when he left. From what i have read it certainly hasn't been plain sailing with Jimmy Johns either... I still think he made the wrong move leaving KTM as the support of a team that big and committed would've got him to this point faster i believe. As you can tell I'm a big KTM fan haha.Thanks @the-ivor!
Would love to read about some of your MX years and see some of your old pics if you have some laying about?
I like
Always wanted a motorcycle

There's nothing like going 125mph on an empty stretch of road
Tarmac is nice for sure. I had a 2009 R6 which was a beast :) great bike.
Motocross is a differnt kinda thing tho, great fun but in a differnt way. Plus doing massive jumps feels better off tarmac :D
Haha I bet. Motocross is sick, and I love watching the jumps
Here's a few of myself mate :) and yes jumping is AMAZING :)
