Small world. I read his hundreds of posts long YZ250 thread a while back. He puts a lot of effort into his bike setup.


Ya his bike is dialed. I definitely am learning a lot about bar setup/ suspension setup

He likes some pretty unconventional stuff which makes for interesting reading.

bike update : Parked for winter. In my last race I broke my shifter clean off, crushed my footpeg on beginning of second lap. I finished the race stuck in 3rd gear for the entire second lap in the most brutal rainfall conditions the race had ever seen. Oh yea I ran out of fuel 5 minutes from the end too on a gnarly hill. Helped riders get up the hill while I waited for fuel. Ended up smoking my clutch from riding in 3rd.

Fixed up my old 350 so will be racing the last 2 races of the season on that.

Pull the clutch and hit the steels with 400 grit sandpaper.

yea its sold, carb bikes are nice and simple sometimes, EFI issues can be a pain to diagnose. Today I'm going to pick up my 2016 its got a rekluse in it now, so stoked. I raced on sunday on my friends 350 I just swapped over my suspension and wheel set. The course wasn't marked well and a dozen of us went of course on the first lap basically disqualifying me..... too bad it would have been my first race win, I was so much faster than the other 17 guys that day, oh well one more to go!
