  1. Great! I look forward to it. Thanks!
  2. We have all been there. The roll back method works every time. I can start my 2023 flatfooted but only when it is warm and... not all the time. That 300 does take a serious kick to start on the compression stroke. I am also an older guy (a bit older than you) and am hoping as It gets ridden more, it will eventually soften up a bit. I am interested in how the low compression head works for you. I am not interested in doing that to my bike but am curious what you think after you have it installed. For example, any loss of power?
  3. Glad to hear you guys are up and about. I have been practicing static balancing and although, I certainly am no expert, I am beginning to get the hang of it. Scottro, what did you end up with for final gearing? Butch, I am really glad to hear you are still able to start the beast. That is awesome. Yes, we do need to do a ride this summer, I am definitely up for it.
  4. What does a 2023 gear look like?
  5. Some folks have said KTM fixed the problem but I do not know what they did. I use the roll back technique to start my bike. Starts pretty easy cold or hot.
  6. Scottro, What year bike was that taken from? Do you know what specifically caused the breakage?
  7. Maybe another way to look at it is that Raga worked very hard to get to the level he is currently at. I'm sure he gets paid fairly well but, is probably under a lot of pressure to perform. It wouldn't surprise me to see anyone at that level stand up if they sincerely thought (rightfully or wrongfully) that they were being treated unfairly. Perhaps, after his seeing the split marker the argument ended?
  8. If only I were that old! 😆
  9. Ahhh Lineaway, you are still a kid! 🙂 I turn 76 in early November. I retired from road racing in 2005. I discovered when I came off the bike I no longer bounced.... I splatted. lol BTW, as you get older, it doesn't get better. I understand about the aches and pains. I am too old to compete in Trials but really enjoy putting around on it.
  10. It is a great technique. It really doesn't require much force on the kicker to get this beast running. I am sure Butch will nail this.
  11. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! If the shoe fits..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
  12. You are a Dick! You do not know what you are talking about. You have yourself pretty high on that pedestal. Just another armchair warrior. Go away, we do not need your crap.
  13. Some folks do not realize when they are tipping a few... they should stay off the keyboard! 😆
  14. I got the shock and fork springs from Trial Store USA. (trialstoreusa.com) They are good folks and will help you out. If I recall though, I think the stock springs should be good for your weight.
  15. That wasn't very nice. Maybe you are the pile.
