Just wondering what kind of $ & bike you all have managed to piece together or buy out-right & race @ a competitive level :arsenal (club level, not national). One of the main reasons I'm curious, is I spent way too much on building a new CRF 450, & no more than a month later a couple of my buddies...

I'm in Houston, and haven't heard or seen any supermoto racing in the area? :headscrat If someone knows any please tell :thumbup:

I have seen a web site on line before that gets titles for bikes & cars when you dont have one. Has any one heard or know of a company in Arizona (I think) that does this?

Ok, last night was the first time we rode full size bikes at the City of Las Vegas Supermoto nights at the Xplex. It was very disappointing. For a loooonnng time now, we have been getting questioned about when we will allow big bikes to ride.....so, we do, and only 1 big bike shows up. We are...

I'm a computer geek dude and was wondering how many other people share their favorite sport of motorcycle racing with their employer. I work for a big company and most of the folks that I consider office friends are like – you’re weird, you’ll crash and poke an eye out, but they continue to be...

Has anyone heard if there will be Supermoto at Daytona next year?

having a hard time making up my mind as to buying a tc450 and converting it to sm spec, or wait and buy a new 06, there are some great buys on new 05's right now. i don't think there is much of an advantage t having a 6 speed, but the updated forks, wider triple clamps, updated cams, and valve...

What do you think? Going on a KTM. Great job Aaron (WheelWright)!

I didn't know where to put this.... but is there/how hard would it be to set up an ATV (ex. banshee) to become a supermoto style ride? I think that would be insane to have ATVsupermoto. input on the subject?

Anyone here that doesn't subscribe to Supermoto Racer?? If you answered yes, get off your ass and subscribe.

hello folks, i wrote about signals after seeing the bayoubruisers bike, and noone commented. I'm interested to know if in the usa, the custom choppers have to have turn signals, cause here in europe it seems that the mirror is mandatory, but no trouble without signals (they melt anyway...) ...

I think Supermoto in North America is going in wrong direction. The intension of supermoto is to bring racers of different backgrounds. Nowdays all the tracks are in favor of motocross expirenced racers. In last X-Games first 3 places where Doug Henry, Jeremy McGrath, Chad Reed.... Come on...

Yeah, I know!! I did a search, but can't find the place/shop that states "we can make any bike street legal in Cali". I'm looking to do a WR/YZF 450 project on an 03 Yami (not my race bike). Any help or links will be great. Thanks---"street legal SLIDEWAYS"

Saw this on ThumperTalk so I thought I would pass it on here. The bike is Kevin Schwantz's Yoshimura 450. Aparently this is in the Tucker Rocky catalogue too, so everyone can get it. Upon further research by someone calling Yoshi, it was a typo. So I guess it's not available to the public yet. ...

So I sat down for my weekly ritual of watching 2Wheel Tuesday on Speed and saw a feature that sounded like a lot of fun. It was about a company called Backroads Adventures. They are a tour groups that leads rides through the rockies in British Columbia with all amenities included, even the bike....

Just got back, had a blast. Here's my 2 cents. WARDY WAS ROBBED!!! OK, he's a friend so I'm a little emotional. He wins 5 races this year and loses the championship by two points because he falls in the last race that, oh by the way, PAYS DOUBLE POINTS! I know, that's racin' and congrats to...

I recently converted a WR450 to 17" wheels. I'm using a 3.50x17 Excel rim with Talon hub and a 120/70 Shinko slick. The front tire rubs badly on the fork leg protector clamp under braking. I'm using the spacers provided by White Brothers. The tire rubs more on the left than right. If anyone has run...
