    Best motocross bike to get?

    Going to echo everyone else here really: -Budget as much as you can and get as newer model as you can, and try and ensure you can trace its history, maintenance, hours run etc -4T (with Elec Start if avail), 2T are a constant maintenance item, more on off on the throttle, narrower useable...

    Under Suit options

    2 piece for me, squeezes the dad bod in to a leather-esq shape and wicks a lot of the sweat keeping the leathers fresher for longer! I've had an RST top for a couple of years now and works well and seems to be holding up, leggings have been a bit hit and miss, currently dianese, but these are...

    Motorsports Coloured Tank Question

    Not sure if it differs by year, but watched a youtube on 2015 Motorsport (Red/White/Blue) bike being built, the red stripe is a lacquered in decal. A base coat of blue that then gets the decal, followed by white and then the lacquer to finish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2DGhCk2aFo...

    Helmets!? Who has what?

    Grew up with AGVs and then at some point in the early 2000's they must have dramatically changed the internal shape, as couldn't find one that fit for love nor money....

    Hello from Northumberland.

    Hi to a fellow Northumberland rider... What year/colour are you riding and which area are you in? I'm out in the hills North of Hexham, on dry/warm days you might find me headed out around Kielder, sometimes a get a little further afield depending on time available.
