John every time I read your exploits, the more I realize that you really are twisted man!! hahaha Additional- Johns WR(CR)300 is siiiick guys it is fast, it is slow, its a ripper, its a low end torquer,its a high speed dez sled and low speed mountain goat, it rips through super ugly rocky sharp HS Comp stuff and powers through sand like a boss,the suspension is nutty good and motor is smooth as glass, its an old school engineered extraordinary motorcycle, Ive ridden 2013 300 katos that dont perform like the Husky300 in the all around arena that Johns bike performs in. its an amazing bike, really. I dont know how much more I can stress how good the thing works.
Open Stretch? There are few races in Arkansas, Mo, TN & Mississippi that are open. Over in Oklahoma and TX - That's different. Ever heard of the Ozarks - Very hilly, rocky and tight. There are only a few races that you can really open a bike up in the AXC or AHSCS series. Want to go fast or air out the Open Class bikes - go to the OCCRA series or TORO series down in TX. But, I still don't under stand why you think a WR300 is slow. If so, a KX250 2T is slower - at least around here. I think I might have to do a Video and post it. A little pasture drag racing if you will.
Yes to Chadwick (might be up there sometime after the first of the year). I'm over in the NE part of the state.
Hey Troy - Do you ride any of the Mhsc races or MORE series? How about HBGP series. I've been wanting to come up there and ride one of those. I did ride the 9 hour (really 6hr) Off-Road cup at Weldon, Mo back in March - That was about the toughest race I've ever done.
yes we do all the more and an hbgp ever now n then the collins rounds are at are place and the training grounds at ELDON is a great place im 45 miles from chadwick
o try the ozark 100 miler by spud the sadist and his minions that 'll make ur babies be born nekid 4 shore lol
I'll call BS on this one ... I rode my 02 CR250 Husky against 2 250 kxs... Never had one whip me or even get a good whiff of my Husky in numerous drag races and I never changed changed pistons while both the kx went through at least 1 piston each, 2 for sure in one of them. They also had a bucket full of broken lever perches that busted over and over. Busted right off the bar and it ended the riding for them more than once for those cheap light bikes. Rims bent on the kxs also ... They seemed to have weak bars as I saw 2 sets or so that bent from crashes ... Never bent the Husky bars and I crashed back then also. -- One question: Are you pinning that 300 because I don't think so... Boundary 1 trail head in GPNF Those kxs are dead and gone quite possibility... That Husky is still stomping around out there in the PNW I bet.
It seems from this statement that your HS Series are very different, from riding an ECEA Enduro.... We'll leave it at that.
Pretty much all 250 and 300 2 strokes are fast. I have ridden many KX, WR, KTM YZ etc and they are all fast. I bet they are all within a few HP of each other. Always thought the YZs had the best motors. KXs are fast, so are WRs. Aust mag did a test on all the 300's including the TM and KTM and the WR was said to be the strongest of them. No real need to argue about it.
there are many many factors to think about here guys, gearing for a big one, jetting, fuel mixtures, temp, altitude, tire dia, RIDER, tuner, ignition, etc etc etc. its not worth discussing without real test data and scientific method. All things being OEM all you need to do is the math, gearing commander, and will the OEm bike HP run the bike to redline RPM in all gears (parasitic drag is everywhere-chain, gearbox, oil wt, aerodynamics, tire pressures etc). my tuppence. moot point at this time really. We need to get back on the Pierer Industrie purchase of Husqvarna brand name.
Seems I have hurt your feelings a little - If I have, I'm sorry - I didn't mean to. I obviously just have a different perspective. But, It' s all good because its about riding dirt bikes.
Now back on topic Even I have gone off topic. Lets find some Husky news and post it Hey I talked to Jake and he LOVES his new Husky. Come on Megan post some Husky news. Or I might just make some up Just a few weeks till we start the Nationals Now that is good Husky News
