Nothing but praise for the new 250 pound motocross bike from all the mags.

Magazines are only mouthpiece for the Industry. When you read a motocross magazine, picture yourself standing on the dealership floor hearing the salesmen sing you the article in barbershop quartet fashion.

Because, other than in a few maverick cases... That's basically what's happening when you read those magazines.

The thing I want to see is.... I want to see pictures of that bike from the "Unflattering" angles.

Have you ever noticed how the magazine photos never show 4 strokes from the top, so that you can see those RIDICULOUS rear number plates that have to be almost completely horizontal to go around those huge silencers.... Enough that the back of the bike is as wide as like 3 seats???

Those bikes look like they sound....
