A funny tale is when I bought my son a well used KX65. After my 4 dump mx bike I’d forgotten what a powerband felt like and on the ‘test ride’ of the KX I almost flipped it. Needless to say all to witness where lmao. I got off it with a grin from ear to ear and announced, I’ll buy it! Still my fav bike it the shed. Amazing how the little thing can haul my fat ass around. | |

The GP derived chassis is amazing. Suspension is more or less non adjustable, but it does well. Stock brakes are OK, upgrades are always nicer. The powerband is hilarious. Nothing Nothing Nothing Nothing OHMYGODTHISCANTBEREAL Nothing | |

If you have a 100 grand lying around, Suter will sell you a 500cc 2stroke. Track only, of course. |

Though a big wheel 80, now you're talking. Plenty of paddock grand prixs have been run and won on those beasts. We had this little loop around a mulberry bush, through a drain and over a tabletop. I was quicker on the big wheel than on a yzf426 | |

The funny thing with kids bike is .... if they are in the shed ..... one day you'll try and ride them. ![]() ![]() Actually when I think back it was kinda necessity I rode them because to ride the fire trails behind our property they had to be taken up a pretty gnarly hill ....... which when the kids were new at it required me to make 3 or 4 trips on all the bikes up the hill. Again ... the kx was the hardest. The 50s ?... ok I would walk/run them under power ... bit too gutless. | |

It’s official, wings have not been banned but having interchangeable internals has been banned. "As a result, the present designs will still be allowed, but it won’t be possible to remove/swap significant aerodynamic parts." |
