I'm not sure exactly, i heard something about the new owner of the bike being resistant to further development.
This project looks legit.

That bikes still around apparently it doesn't have the EFI anymore though. They could never get it to work quite right.
Uniflow who posts on here has a much more worthy attempt on the go at the mo. Also a kiwi.
Thats Peter Broxholme in that vid, yes a very good rider and would love to see him race an EFI 2T.

General Two Stroke Talk / Courtney Duncan WMX at Hangtown Qualifies 1st on a YZ 125

« on: May 24, 2013, 11:09:55 PM »

she would only be sixtysixth fastest at the ama 250 national. but she may produce some killer child bearing hips as a result of riding her two-stroke.

You may be right x, BUT there is no way a 125 is as fast as a 250F these days.
The other thing is how hard was she really trying?. You are not going to risk a crash when you have it over your competition and are that far in the lead.
She beat all the men in her first ever big bike race only a few months ago.
Left everyone shocked.
Josh Coppins says she can make a main and at this stage I would have to believe him.

I dunno who Josh Coppins is but I agree. I want to see it happen. She just walked all over those foopers on a machine half the displacement. Not only a HP and torque disadvantage, but harder to ride. I don't know about the rest of the track but that big hill is a place where a 250Fs power would come in right handy. Yet she still had a solid 5 second lead at least.

Talent much much?

Are you f***ing kidding me not knowing who Josh Coppin's is.
Are you sure you're into MX?

I don't think a pic of the plug will help unless he does a WOT plug chop cause it'll be the main thats too small i'd guess.

Thanks for posting Jamie!

You have a gem of a rider there, no doubt.
Keep her safe and having fun - ok? Thanks for all you do

Thanks citabjockey,

We have been looking after Courtney for years now watching her grow from the 65cc to the 85cc to the 125cc and every time she steps it up more and more. If any of you are after some of the clothing courtney wears please check out our website we worldwide. and we are currently designing the 151Tee should will be sick.

Cheers
Jamie

Courtney is sponsored by Backflips clothing company, Who's this again?

Photos & Videos / Big jumps?

« on: May 19, 2013, 05:45:34 AM »

this sort of jump shouldn't even be on a amateur mx track, and id even go so far as saying not even on a pro mx track

I was thinking it was quite well constructed, sure it's a big leap, but there are a number of safe shorter options available to the rider, t's not a jump it all or nothing jump.....but you'd want a flaggie there on race day

as far as i'm concerned it shouldn't even be an option, if the pros or fast amateurs are doing this then change it. or dont, and complain about all the injuries
its dangerous, whether or not there are other options for the jump

See, I'm on the other side of this argument... I don't want a track where I can go out and hit everything first lap, just by looking at the jumps, which is almost every track I ride now. The fun in motocross is the rush, the adrenalin. That is what this jump is bringing to the table. I get where you're coming from though, with the safety thing. Nobody wants a flatout dangerous or harsh track, we want a fun track! In my opinion, that is what this jump has, the FUN factor for the experienced guys, and this is not a dangerous jump, there is an option to not jump the whole gap. Rather break it into two tables, which makes this setup perfectly acceptable in my opinion. If we start taking out the jumps like this, where do we draw the line? There are plenty of bunny tracks already out there.

General Two Stroke Talk / yz125 leads ama pro mx qualifing

Ive never heard of this chick. She was running 2:15 lap times at the end of the day on a 125....thats super fast for a girl 

Yeah she doesn't get much publicity in NZ, i've posted for the last couple of years that she'll be next women's champ having seen how fast she is first hand.
 I think her main focus will turn to running against the guys, and she's got the talent to do it.

Hey total. Doesn't your mate Jeremy ? look after her in the states.?
Keep us informed on the future plans.

Yeah, he's over there with her helping her out. Backflips clothing and GMD are big supporters of hers.
I'm so stoked to see her realizing her potential. I remember watching her on a 65 racing against older boys on 85's and them having to hold her back till the rest of the field had done a complete lap, then she'd still go out and win. And they were only 3 lap races.

Not to sound like a **** but this girl is too fast for the womens class. 4 sec a lap.
She will be using this as a warmup for LL and for networking.
She raced the first round of the NZ MX champs before heading to the States and won the 125 class against all the men. This is her first year on a big bike.
As an example, Kathiren Plumm who was the WMX world champ a couple of years ago, used to race against the men here and was a top 10 finisher. Just. This girl is alot quicker at a younger age.
That bike she is racing is pretty stock as well. Up against Geico Hondas.
Good luck Courtney.

Yep she's amazingly fast, i've posted on here about her couple years ago and too watch out for her. She's from down my way and i've watched her for years and raced against her couple times. She was too young to race the senior class last southern series ( the premier series in these parts) but she raced in the senior feature race at the final round and her and the top senior rider lapped the whole field and up to 9th twice.
 I think it's a given that she'll easily be womens world champion but her real goal i believe is to smoke the boys too, and she's got the pace to do it.
