I sell a line of Chinese pit/kids bikes from a distrubutor in TX. They have been pretty solid little bikes but they brought a 250 by a few weeks ago that had an EFI Zongshen engine with a KTM copy frame prior to 23. KYB suspension, Excel wheels and Brembo copy brakes. $5999 is the retail. The fit and finish...

Orange frames going forward will be FE only.

Probably becuase it would prevent them from charging insane premiums.

I have to admit the CF Moto stuff seems very well made. I’ve talked to farmers that have them and so far they are holding up.

Beta just did a complete redesign on their trails bike.

If you go to 1115 Milan Ave in Amherst today you will see the KTM USA parts warehouse.

I’m in the lawn mower business. The gas powered push mower is not dead. But it’s on life support. I sell electric now. The few gas powered units left are not well made. Honda was ahead of the curve there. Not sure where Honda is on generators. The new ones coming out of China are very good and 1/4 the...

This is one reason Honda went back to the Dakar. Dakar and MotoGP are a huge deal in SE Asia. India in particular is the world’s largest motorcycle market. Honda’ former partner there Hero is the worlds 2nd largest MC company and does not export. Bajaj ,TVS and Royal Enfield are not far behind

I saw where every major car mfg lost most of their market share in China to domestic companies. It was a big hit for all of them. The Chinese have crossed the threshold of more than 50% EV or hybrid and their domestic product is better than all of the other EV’s other than Tesla.

Plus every tool you had and some you probably didn’t. Early Husaberg’s were no picnic either.

The best mod we have seen from customer feedback on all the two strokes are RK-Tek heads.

What maybe 25 guys can carry competitive speed on a pro motocross track? Risk reward is just to high. Then there is losing money to participate in a professional sport. It’s amazing how many guys show up honestly. 2 solutions. Make tracks easier or get guys paid. There is zero appetite for either.

I don’t live that far away but I’ve never been. It’s sort of known as the place where elderly church groups go. Been to the Ozarks many times riding and mountain biking but never to Branson.

I head the homologation numbers with the AMA dropped significantly. If not officially for sure in practice.

Fantic, Sherco and TM don’t have the money. Kove possibly.

New sound regulations?

Ride at whatever speed keeps you from falling. Staying consistent is better than going fast and falling. Be very disciplined about doing this. The speed will come. It’s going to seem very chaotic the start and most falls happen there. Just ride the trail in front of you and don’t get caught up with what other riders are doing. Settle...

We have found that the RK Tek heads work really well on the 300’s.

The cost of vehicle’s, housing and food is what is killing any other activities. Not just moto.
