Just race the 450 this year all 17 rounds. You can make it in. The more races you get under you the better you get through the season. You do pretty good. Just gota get those starts
You forgot about theeeee most important thing: Suspension. What are you using? A-Kit? Give us the goodies Kev. Enjoy your channel and pleeeeeease stay humble and keep it fun.
@@NathansGarage I'm talking about the reallllly good stuff that can't be seen. I can tell you from experience that riding good suspension makes alllllll the difference in the world. I laugh when I see about 90% of people buying pipes and motor work (as I once did) and riding stock suspension. I grew riding bikes exactly how they came off of the show room floor with the exception of setting my sag. Funny story: Not sure if anyone remembers Jack Ricks (he put it on Emig in the Super Minin class in 1987 at the Lake Whitney National), but he had to use my bike for a moto and he came back and asked, "How the hell do you ride this thing?". In which I replied, "I just ride it!". I rode some Pro Circuit A-kit stuff in about 2003 and I was amazed at the difference it made. Mind boggling what the really good guys get to ride.
@@digitalfinesse3352 Thank you Digital F. Though it is a true one. Emig backed it up recently. Ask him about it. And check out Jack Ricks III on FB. He'll confirm it. Not bragging, just sharing because I was only maybe a bit better than average most days, with an occasional flash of speed. At least in my mind. lol
Instead of spending your money on powder coating parts, and fancy engine mounting bolts (looks wont make your faster), why not spend it on some things that will, like more tha just one sprocket, different rubber compound tires etc. Looks like you guys focus on looking pretty more than running up front. Pretty or not you still gotta ride it.
Matthes, you never replied to my comment on your bashing the one guy talking about the frustration Eli was having with the Kawasaki engineers awhile back. Why not? I was honestly wanting to hear your feedback so I could learn something new. Btw, really great interview with Dave Arnold and the Honda bikes of the 70s and 80s. I remember almost all of those except G Jones bike because I was a few years too young. I was hoping to see more coverage of Johnny O's Mugen on there. Nonetheless, great stuff. Sincerely.
@@justanotherjackleg7073 I did mention on the Pulp Show that Kawasaki is a company that willl develop a bike and then tell the riders "here is the bike, ride it" unlike a team like Star Yamaha that will change everything. Kawasaki let him use KYB forks though. Eli was seen to make too many excuses.
@@stevematthes4325 Appreciate the feedback. Did you get square with the newer to the sport guy that you banged out? I hope so. YOU have a huge platform and are in a perfect position to teach the newer people of the sport with your huge knowledge base in and out of the pits. Also, do you agree with Kawasaki's position on saying "here's the bike, ride it"? Much respect for taking the time.
@@justanotherjackleg7073 Teams will obviously work on suspension and ECU setting etc but the riders make too many excuses. Look at Tomac last weekend. He really didn't do any better being on the Yamaha.
