Dirt Bikes
For fast off road racing, are there undeniable benefits between bike types?
I was watching some races from the previous ISDE and some GNCC, noticed that on the Six Days the majority of riders rode some variant of enduro model (Beta RR RE, KTM EXCF for example) while on the GNCC races there are a lot more converted MX bikes (specially looking at the kawasakis).
Courses didn´t appear to be too different either, and that got me thinking:
Is there any advantage for buying an enduro model(EXCF, Beta RR, Shercos) over converted MX bike?
Are these "adv
OTB OVER THE BOOT OFFROAD PANTS REVIEW
There all junk. ✌️
The beige Klim pants didn’t last long.
The black O Neal Apocalypse pants will last less as long. Pretty flimsy pant on the inside of the boot area where the foot peg will shred it.
The cactus color Leatt ahh they have a little leather on the inner knee area where it could cook the pipe. A little sturdier on the inner boot area. But not much better than the other two. Good thing I got them on sale for $135. two to three ride pant until they shred.

How valves should look
Here are pics off an 80cc head. Intake valves look clean, no build up (2nd pic). Exhaust valves look to have oil caked around the inside (3rd and 4th pic). Is this normal? In the pic, the intake valve is the larger one and exhaust (one with build up) is the smaller one. Please let me know your thoughts. The clips that hold the piston broke and scored up the cylinder so i am doing a top end build but dont know if one of the valves is bad. Do i need to replace the exhaust valve because it is letti
Has anyone used the Black Widow Hitch carrier
Been looking for a better way to haul my bike other than my truck bed.
My truck has a lift on it and is a pain sometimes depending on where I am at to load the bike up.
So I am thinking of ordereing one of the Hitch carriers and this Black Widow alum carrier with the 6' ramp has kind of caught my eye some.
I cant really make up my mind if I really want one as I can still load the bike in the bed of the truck ok but the hitch carrier seems like it would make things a little easi

Thoughts on what would work for me:
Basic but with creature comforts that matter. Heat, air, pot to piss in, stove to cook on.
Smaller, simpler = better. Just one person here don't need to make towing more difficult.
Solar or upgradable to solar.
Tandem axles for towing stability.
ATV / UTV
Atv identification
Can anyone help identify and give a price for this atv?
