Revamp skin naming?

Post by Jrife548 »

Instead of having to make several sets of JMs and Normals for every different dyno your teammates run, why not just simplify the naming process from:

250sxfv2016-ect
to
250f-ect

or

crf450v2017-rct
to
450-ect

I'm not actually a fan of the idea of mismatching the bike and model like that. I've thought about making "spec" versions of the bikes that all have the same power curve. No one seemed too interested in that idea though.

i think a spec bikes would be awesome especially if you had new sounds for each bike that way lets say my teams on a kawi and atm we all run the fc 450 dyno our kawi skins dont sound like a fc. this way we could just put the entire team on a kawi sounding bike without having a disadvantage.

They all use the same sound files so any difference between the sound in the 450s is from the power curve. So a "spec" curve would make them all exactly the same.

My friends and I have wanted this forever. Make all the bikes the same speed and keep the weight/handling how you've been making them. Then people will choose what feels the best for them and not whatever bike is the fastest.
