Got to test out my new gearing today (13/52) works great only need to use 3rd/4th. Still slightly boggy in some corners in 3rd could gear down to 12/50. Managed to slide out in one of the corners and wash the front end out

Track is so beat the corners are very slippery and rutted.

I think you should just learn to work the clutch. If you're slightly bogging then using the clutch a little will solve your problem. 12/50 is going to be really short for anything other than that track. But since you already have your 13/52 sprockets I guess you could just switch them out whenever you want to go anywhere else. You do you, but I would highly suggest practicing using the clutch, especially considering you ride a 125.

Hearing a bogging 2-stroke hurts my insides, just slip it a little!

I'll try next time I'm at the track to slip clutch. Where I ride the track gets so rough in the corners its hard to work the clutch getting bounced around so much. Wish my clutch lever was closer not sure how adjustable my clutch is being a 90's bike. I found a 330 main laying around in my basement so it runs great up top now. The bike still runs rich in the low to mid RPM's going to raise the clip one for next weekend.

Still searching for an 06+ YZ250

What are theese red and white Glen Helen track barriers made out of? Always thought they are made out of concrete, but who in their right mind puts concrete blocks as MX track barriers.

Theyre plastic and hollow

I'm lost though. He said red and white ones? Which ones is he talking about?

Giant plastic blocks marking the inside of the corners? Come on, you should know this one.

I guess you got these in mind? Looks like just hay inside and some tiny plastic covers.

Come on, I know what hay looks like

Was talking about theese, makes sense that they are plastic and hollow, never paused a video to take a closer look tho.

Mickey Thompsen stadium trucks had water-filled ones they called "hydro-barriers". I'm pretty sure the MX ones aren't, lol.

When I broke my ankles I did the same thing (injury wise, not the fork part)

They are Plastic and hollow. They're made to be filled with water or sand just like the things that are on the side of the freeway for you to hit. There's actually not that many people

The sad thing is the tires are sketchier.

And they do still have a concrete K rail in between two seconds.

Do you guys still use the barrels full of water on your highways?
