Raining yellow perhaps?!

That was a cool moment in the sport I thought. They were fast and looked great on the Suzuki's with No Fear deal. There was one supercross before Windham got hurt that they dueled together and it was magic happening.

I came here expecting an announcement about the MXDN. I am disappointed. Cool video though.

Anyone ever notice on the 01 and 02 factory RM250's they used a completely different clutch cover, system and actuation than the production bikes? It seemed like the cases were even different. The clutch cover and actuation arm looked like something off the 125.

You can see it in photos of the bikes and if you have a sharp eye you can catch it in this video....ive always wondered what the deal was with that.

Well maybe it was just the 01 and I know for a fact thios is way different than the production 2001 bec I had one and LOVED that bike....a little down on power (easy fix) but the chassis and suspension were incredible!! So light feeling too
Here is a pic of W@indhams 01 ...notice the clutch cover? Id love to hear the reason behind this setup

I used to watch 199 Lives and Revelation 199 all the time, somewhere in one of those is a good video of him and Kdub testing and doing transfers.

I got tired just by watching that vid.
If Travis was having probs with that whoop section i can't imagine us mortals going through there.

this is the kind of obstacle that supercross needs. Relatively low risk as speeds are so low, absolutely separates the men from boys, and would create some killer racing for the few that hit that with the determination to survive.

PS - Windham owned those whoops compared to TP.

KW had those whoops whipped about as good as you could possibly do them. Kinda schooled Travis that day I think.
