Better late than never. We finally got a chance to pit the biggest, baddest Japanese motocross bikes against one another in a battle of technology, brute strength and refinement, and this year had some real surprises. Read the report.

Interesting report like always.  It was good to note that all 4 of the big manufacturers were present and well represented.  Too bad KTM didn't bring their entry to the table (I know, I know- it's never enough).  I wonder if Husky being distributed by BMW is going to mean more of those rarities showing up in the press as well.
 
Anyway, interesting shoot out. Helmet cam footage rocks!

Sweet review. Being a dirt noobie I can only wish I can ride like that! Baby steps, baby steps...

Børk! Børk! Børk!

Good news, Chedda. I was just speaking this weekend with a new contact that may be able to provide not only the constant thorn-in-side KTM, but the Husky and BMW machines (in the future of course). No promises just yet, but our conversation was definitely encouraging. Trust me, getting these machines is high on my priority list.

All I've got to say is that Honda 450 made me giggle like a little school girl. I'm not going to have any problems selling this bike to customers. Thanks for the review, MCUSA... I've made a point to recomend prospective customers to take a look at multiple reviews of bikes, and I always mention this place. Keep up the good work.
