i dont see how you guys say it's boring, i just love watching them hit the ruts and hauling ass... even if they're in 1st place. it's freakin awesome...
Built or stock, doesn’t really change the pitch of the motor Suzuki has always been known to have a very deep throaty sound ... the yoshi is just helping expose it. Love the sound of a zuk
Not trying to be rude but James didn't win a championship of any sort on a Suzuki. James best years were on Kawi multiple championships, a perfect 450 season outdoors, won everything a person can possibly win on a 125 and set records that still stand today on a 125. And had he not gotten injured when he entered into the 250 class on a Kawi would probably have more than two Supercross championships total. By the time James got to Suzuki he was "old" for the sport and had been literally bruised, battered, and broken for 12 years professionally and had been riding since he could walk damn near so he was burnt out not just on riding but on dealing with the politics of the industry. We still got to see many flashes of brilliance when he was on suzuki but that was just from pure experience and instinct I truly believe he was over the sport at the point he rode for suzuki. And as far as Ricky Carmichael goes his best years were hands down on Honda, two perfect seasons outdoors, and supercross championships, des nations titles all the proofs in the pudding.
Its not just the jump. Its how smoothly you go through the gears and how well you get the power down on the rear tire. If you look closely you can see that his front tire is lifting just alittle bit and that creates less drag and pushes more weight on the back wheel. Thats also why gate pick is so important cause its not just the line you take into the turn its also how smooth that line is and since he had first gate pick he got the best one.
This race reminded me that sometimes James still has stints where he can ride like he used to. Oh the things he could have done if he had stayed healthy over the years.....
You have a point, although i've never ridden a ktm but i'm sure they're great bikes. I'm hesitant on the transition to a hydro clutch and tweaking of it, but i'll definitely look into going orange, yami and ktm keeps True to the sport by continuing to make what most started with, a good 2stroke
My god the bark on that zuk! …its amazing to see how little James uses the clutch. They could remove the lever and I’m sure he wouldn’t even miss it ….well maybe at the start 🤣
JS7 Look back at 4:24, 17:35, and 36:18. The old James never looked back. After the first look back, he started thinking about what was behind him. Definitely shows that he is lacking the confidence he once used to have. I think JS7 still has the speed (without a doubt) to run with RV2 and RD5, he just doesn't have the confidence to run with them... yet. Great video! Go JS7!!! :)
You can listen and compare how Dungey was on the gas sooner exiting the corners than James was.....a tad her and a tad there makes a huge difference in the long run. That suspension was absorbing the shit out of everything no? Omg
He's talking about the chin mount..... Way better! Check my newer vids, you can see more a little more handle bar action but not down so low like that chest mount view where it blocks everything. Plus I can talk at normal volume and the gopro picks it up, so we could here all the nice things he has to say to the lappers :)
250cc not a chance, you'd have to ride it at a higher rpm ie lower gear to make up for the torque disadvantage and that's when arm pump comes in, 250 two strokes require more fitness even tho they're lighter, constant shifting and throttling is needed, u can tract up steep hills at a high gear and low rpm on a 450 with no prob but with a 250 2stroke you'd have to down shift and scream up it at high revs.. a 500cc 2stroke is more powerful than a 450 but doesn't at all tract as well..
