Would be great if Roczen can win a SX title for Honda.
Only a short frozen trail ride on mine so far and looks like more snow on the way so might have to get some studded tires

Man, I finally got to ride my bike at ramjam. Having not rode since July of 19, I was skeptical how the day would go.
First session I rode in smooth mode with traction on 2.. I had already gone up 1 tooth in the rear but felt in there on the right track I needed another tooth. Was lugging too much in corners in 2nd.. I made myself not attempt any of the bigger jumps.. I have no issues with the mapping TDR came up with, infact, if you have a WE I'd highly recommend having him install the same maps. My 17 had a high comp and some other things and this motor feels way better. More power but definitely more manageable.
Second session I put it in map 3, the aggressive one. Suddenly I didn't need another tooth. It was perfect. Instant power but very very manageable. Suspension wise all I did was put on appropriate spring rates, set sag, and put Keefer's suggested clicker setting in place. I loved it. Seat bounce city with complete control, no funny business. I love this bike. The hydro clutch is perfect feeling.
I had alot of fun at ram jam and look forward to going back!

When we’re you up there? We drove up Friday and rode. First time riding since i broke my back and hard the rods and screws put in. First couple laps i took it easy, never been a fan of indoor tracks. Ram jam was sick once you get the “flow”. The dirt was awesome and the jumps are booters, especially when you opt to quad some of them. The step on/off and the table to table after are fun. I got a couple videos of me laying it flat over it. Glad you’re like the ‘21. I’ll see you at some quallies

Today. Took me a session to shake the cobwebs but I finally hit everything in the second session. I love the feeling of seat bouncing that quad.
Doubt you'll see me at qualifiers. Not impressed with the choice of regional tracks. I really just wanna do some fun vet stuff.
