    This was a 2009 yz250 that was a woods bike its entire life.

    Bike restoration tips

    Scotchbrite and wd 40. It's nothing like vapor blasting but can make a heck of a difference with some elbow grease.

    Being "That dirt bike guy"

    The opposite is also fun. Friend asks What bike should I buy for my first one. Me: get a trail bike or newer 250f that's manageable power. Friend: 99 CR250 it is!

    Local rider down

    I don't know the details of the crash. I'm in a group text with several riding friends and one of them reached out about Chase. I don't know him personally.

    Local rider down

    Hello all. One of my riding buddy's has a friend that went down hard riding indoors, lots of big injuries. He's self employed and has a lot of expenses to get healthy again. If you have a couple bucks to spare it's greatly appreciated! Merry Christmas to all the moto community and a safe...

    Malvern

    Weird response... Last time I raced was at Malvern. Would probably be the next one also. But I hope you're correct.

    Malvern

    Same. Again, I hope it's just rumor and they continue to operate. One of, if not my all time favorite track to ride/race.

    Malvern

    Will they continue to run? Heard they were possibly sold. Not trying to spread rumors or anything but super bummed if there's any truth to that, has always been one of my favorites. Hopefully just bad info!

    New (to me) bike time- looking for feedback

    Up and down the street, very nice . I will say she's tight, esp rear shock. At 210-215lbs it's barely squatting. That gripper seat is legit. Monkey butt is in the forecast.

    Pulled the trigger on a 23.5 with 2.9 hours. At $8k I couldn't pass it up, still has tits on the front tire.

    I can't say I 100% agree personally. Maybe with enough $$ invested. I'd put chassis at the top of my list. I'm also not a tinkerer. I might throw a slip on a bike and a few clickers from time to time.

    Don't know how anything can ride one of those fast stock. Worst forks I've ever been on out of the box.

    New (to me) bike time- looking for feedback

    I thought for sure that would be my next bike. I got a chance to just putt around on a 23 and it felt a mile tall to me. I'm barely 5'10, or was lol. Did you notice the height at all?

    New (to me) bike time- looking for feedback

    I posted similar thread on vital, no help over there. Short and sweet. I loved the 2019.5 FC RE chassis/handling. Looking at a 2022 standard KTM 450 with low hours. Also found a low hour 23.5 FC450 RE in my price range. Anyone rode both, had both or even just the new gen Rockstar/Factory...

    RIP Jeff Alessi

    Most importantly condolences to the Alessi family. Regardless of the why it's a tragedy. I have heard reports of multiple elite athletes in varied sports that have developed cardiac issues seemingly after being vaccinated. No I didn't document it but I've heard it enough the past year. Where...

    RIP Jeff Alessi

    My first thought as well.
