Very cool rally report! Thank you. The pictures are not showing for us though. EDIT: Now they are, thank you.

I am wondering whether the Euros were so much faster simply because they ran the Pirelli mud/sand tires, which have about 50% bigger paddles/knobs compared to the Dunlop MX12, which everyone in the US runs? This wouldn't matter much if the track was not all deep sand/mud, but yesterday it was...

In the "gas tank". There is a lot of unused room there.

It does look like a goner.

It was amazing to see racers and fans from all over the world to come to the US to race and cheer. Lots of groups dressed in the same costumes and waving their national flags. We also stopped to buy a US flag, and we used a Rocky Mountain umbrella as a flag pole. I also sported US flag...

Just came back from Red Bud late last night. The two Dutchmen were fast and looked like they were right at home, winning every race they entered. They only didn't win the MXoN because their third guy screwed up badly. The French won it (again) without winning a single race, and even without...

I kept my 1995 CR250. It is feeding my nostalgia very well by just sitting in the garage and letting me look at it.

I did think about this after seeing the intricate factory recommended brake hose routing. But I still prefer my routing. The PTFE coated brake hose does touch a couple of harnesses, but it does so with no pressure. There are no high-frequency vibrations in this bike, so it would probably take...

I kept my old bikes, which are dear to me and won't fetch much money, and sold all the recently bought ones because I only rode them once after I bought the Alta. That one ride was only to compare the bikes back to back on the same day and track. My 2015 Husky 2-stroke felt like riding an...

Also, I see there is a confusion in this thread about chargers. The Standard charger might be included in the dealer price, but I do not think it is included for free. The Standard chargers were included only with the 2017 models, before the huge $4,500 price drop happened and the MXR models...

You're talking a 2018 EX vs the 2019 EXR, right? I do not thing there have been 2018 EXRs. The current EXR came out in June as a 2019 model, AFAIK.

This is my LHRB hose routing. No brackets or any bolts required.

The stock front sprocket on the MXR is already 12. Are you asking what would happen if you install a smaller or a larger front sprocket? You should try Map 4, if you need to clear jumps. Your only get 37hp in Map 3. Of course it would feel underpowered.

<in chorus> HI BEN.

Yay! That was a fast battery replacement!

I would ignore the rear spring and fork pressure recommendations. The MXR is sprung well for an average 180 lbs rider, and no reasonable damping tuning should result in requiring softer or stiffer springs.

Yes, I did. It didn't seem to be all that interesting though. Although I forgot to ask whether that laptop had the permissions to adjust and create new maps. That would be very cool. LOL! I'd like to think so. Actually, it was me who came to the Alta demo day. But I told Alta where that demo...

So you do not need the lights then. You may then want to consider the MX vs the MXR. Both bikes are a lot of fun on single track. The MX suspension can be re-sprung and revalved to work at a motocross track. The MXR suspension works okay on most tracks for most C-level riders and occasional B-level.

Ah... so this is where all the water collects after pressure washing! Many small mosquito ponds, nature conservation area.

Wow, this is interesting!
