Foam inserts on race bikes
Why don't they use them on the race bikes? Is it because they may need to make a quick adjustment to tire pressure? Illegal in AMA racing, or what?

From what i've been told, it doesn't give the same response and feel as air.

They use them at rocky tracks such as Unadilla.

In the outdoors the do use a bib mouse but not in supercross because the chance of a flat on a supercross race is very smal since it are pretty smoot tracks and short heats and in a 30 minute moto rough outdoors track it would be much more possible

Re: Foam inserts on race bikes
it's a tipe of foam like a "snake",like riding in 0.9-1 bar pressure, i've mounted in my bike, and it's comfortable to ride because you don't have to think you can brake the chamber of the wheel
