Eli Tomac (3) won all three main event motos in Cardiff. Eli was a “wild card “entry, so he isn’t racing for the Championship—although he would most likely win it.

Anton Wass with his Varg prototype back in December 2021. Stark founder Anton Wass says that the delivering dates of his electric Stark Varg motocross bike will “have a few months’ delay.” Over-promising is often the bug-a-boo of any company taking deposits with over-optimistic fulfillment dates— as a man who worked ran a major motorcycle retailer, Anton should have known better. Citing “Global supply chain issues” that have affected Stark production more than they had anticipated, the result is that the Varg’s production scale up has taken longer than they had expected—and unfortunately promised. Wass says that within the next few weeks, Stark sales support will call every single customer who put down a deposit to update them on the status of their order and clarify any questions consumers may have regarding their bikes delivery.

Larry Brooks has a lot of experience. He ran the Chaparral Yamaha team, KTM team, L&M Yamaha team, San Manuel Yamaha team, Blue Buffalo team and most recently the Bar-X Suzuki team.

Press release: Twisted Tea Suzuki presented by Progressive Insurance is pleased to announce the addition of Larry Brooks as Team Manager. Larry brings a winning pedigree, with multiple premier class championships to his resume. Together, with Suzuki Motor USA and all team partners, we look forward to a successful tenure filled with new team goals and winning aspirations.

In the nick of time, the FIM World Supercross Championship (WSX) announced a multi-year agreement with Fox Sports to bring the WSX events into U.S. homes, beginning with the upcoming 2022 Championship Round from Cardiff, Wales, this Saturday (the Melbourne, Australia, round airs on Oct. 21-22).

The three-hours of WSX coverage will air on FOX Sports cable channels with a combination of live and delayed coverage, in addition to replays. The Wales race, one of only two World Supercross rounds scheduled for 2022, will feature Eli Tomac, Ken Roczen. Chad Reed, Dean Wilson and Max Anstie. Fox Sports will broadcast the 2023 FIM WSX Championship season, as next year’s WSX schedule expands from July to November, 2023. Leading the broadcast team will be Ralph Sheheen, Jeff Emig and Kristen Beat.

The MXA test riders loved the 2022 Kawasaki KX450SR Special Racer, but it was made in very limited numbers, which meant that it was hard to come by. The 2023 model will come in larger production run with a much larger $12,699 price tag.

The KX450SR makes its highly anticipated return for 2023. The KX450SR is Kawasaki’s version of the KTM Factory Edition, Kawasaki Rockstar Edition and Honda Works Edition. The KX450SR (Special Racer)features elite-level racing components, special tuning and design elements to further elevate the stock KX450’s performance.

The 2023 KX450SR engine get a polished intake tracts, special ECU with aggressive mapping, a hydraulic clutch and a titanium Pro Circuit exhaust.

ENGINE: The KX450SR features polished intake ports that provide smoother airflow, contributing to increased engine performance. A close-ratio five-speed transmission is paired with a high-capacity, Belleville washer activated, hydraulic clutch for a consistent feeling even under heavy use.Just like the Monster Energy factory KX450s, a Pro Circuit Ti-6 Pro titanium exhaust has been fitted to increased engine performance. The ECU mapping is exclusive to the KX450SR.

FRAME: The KX450SR frame is identical to the stock KX450 frame and swingarm. Both the KX450 and KX450SR are constructed of forged, extruded, and cast parts, while the engine is used as a stressed member.

Showa forks replace last year’s excellent Kayaba units, but Showa upped their fork game with titanium oxide coatings, , Dimplush testuring and Kashima coated internal tubes.

FORKS: For 2023, this high-performance, limited edition Special Racer (SR) is now equipped with Showa front and rear suspension components. Last year, it its first year of production it came with Kayaba forks. The new Showa forks have titanium oxide coated inner fork tubes that resist wear and reduce friction. The large 49mm inner fork tubes are the same size found on Kawasaki’s factory race team and allow for the use of large 39mm compression damping pistons and a 25mm cartridge cylinder. The inner surface of the outer fork tubes features Showa’s Dimplush texture, which has a wave-like finish to help retain an oil film for smoother action. The Dimplush texture also has a Kashima coating to create a low-friction surface that helps prevent wear so the sliding surfaces remain smooth for a long time.

Holding up the Showa front forks are XTrig ROCS triple clamps outfitted with XTrig’s PHDS (progressive handlebar dampening system) handlebar mounts. This system also helps to dampen the forces acting on the handlebars in both horizontal and vertical directions. The handlebars can be adjusted to 12 different positions for total rider customization. The 22mm front axle enhances front end traction.

The graphics have been “Monsterized,’ but the highlights are the Pro Circuit titanium exhaust system and Xtrig triple split clamps.

SHOCK: A Showa rear shock replaces last year’s Kayaba rear shock and offers high- and low-speed damping that can be tuned separately. Utilizing feedback from Kawasaki’s factory race teams, the 22mm front axle enhances front end traction. The New Uni-Trak rear suspension linkage ratios have been selected to suit the chassis.

WHEELS: Adorning the KX450SR is a pair of D.I.D. DirtStar wheels, improving the strength and durability under the most challenging conditions on the racetrack. The black coating on the rims emulates the looks of a factory race machine. Further adding to the attention grabbing appearance on the KX450SR is the championship proven combination of a D.I.D. 520ERT3 gold chain fitted to a black Renthal Ultralight aluminum rear sprocket.

MXA hoped that the 2023 KX450SR would have seen some needed upgrades to the weakest parts of the KX platform, but they didn’t fix any of the basic flaws that KX owners are well aware of.

BRAKES: Stopping duties are handle by an oversized 270mm, petal-shaped, front brake rotor from Braking. The rear rotor is the less than popular 250mm petal-shaped Braking rotor.

ERGOS: Kawasaki’s Ergo-Fit components feature footpegs that offer 5mm of up or down mounting to go along with the 12 different bar positions

The Hinson clutch covers add a factory touch, but there is nothing Hinson inside the engine.

STYLING: The 2023 Kawasaki KX450SR showcases special colors & graphics that resemble those found on the Monster Energy Kawasaki team bikes. There is also a Hinson Billetproof clutch cover featuring the Kawasaki race team logo. However, there is no Hinson clutch behind the cover.

RETAIL PRICE: $12,699 ($300 more than the 2022 KX450SR and $3100 more than a stock 2023 KX450).

Loretta Lynn is best known for hr Cola Miner’s Daughter song and biopic.

Loretta Lynn was a legendary country singer and songwriter who became a symbol of rural resilience with her powerful voice and inspiring life story. She influenced scores of musicians as one of the most beloved performers of her generation, and also influenced thousands of motocross athletes, hosting the AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship at Loretta Lynn Ranch since 1982. Lynn passed away on October 4. She was 90.

Lynn was born on April 14, 1932, in Butcher Hollow, Kentucky. Her autobiography, “A Coal Miner’s Daughter”, was adapted into an Oscar-winning movie. She won four Grammys and sold 45 million records worldwide and had 24 Nunmber one singleson the country charts. She was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1988. And, was inducted into the AMA Hall of Fame in 2021 for opening her Loretta Lynn Ranch to approximately 60,000 racers from 1982 to the present. Nearly every AMA Pro Supercross and Motocross Champion, including Hall of Famers Jeremy McGrath and Ricky Carmichael, raced at Loretta Lynn’ Ranch.

The Yamaha YZ250F/YZ450F’s are great bikes, but the general consensus is that the cockpit (rider triangle) is a little cramped. The distance from seat to pegs is shorter than other bikes, which requires more effort to transition from sitting to standing. Works Connection’s titanium offset foot peg mounts open up the cockpit area by moving the pegs down 7mm and back 5mm, These changes open up the cockpit, while still allowing a good feel for the rear brake pedal and shift lever. The mounts are made from Grade 5 6AL-4V titanium.

The kit consists of 2 titanium foot peg mounts (Left and Right), 2 titanium pins, 2 titanium washers and 2 cotter pins. The Work Connection mounts are 30% lighter and works with any brand of foot peg. The retail price is $349.95. For more info go to www.worksconnection.com

Even in dirt bike crazy SoCal there aren’t very many Surron dealers to help with the $8499 Surron Super Bee F.

Surron electric motorcycles announces the official release of the long-anticipated 2023 Storm Bee F electric off-road motorcycle. It will join the Light Bee X model as their first full-size bike.

Settings can be fine-tuned by the rider via the LCD dash and handlebar-mounted controls. Further setting the Storm Bee apart from crowd is a reverse gear, allowing riders to maneuver out of tricky situations with the push of a button.

Scott Highland was Named Director of Marketing, while Scott Neely was hired as Director of Powersports Sales.

Race Winning Brands (RWB), which includes Wiseco, Pro-X, CV4, JE pistons, Rev Max and Rekluse Clutches continues to evolve its dedicated team of performance professionals with the addition of Scott Neely as Director of Powersports Sales and the transition of existing RWB veteran, Scott Highland, to Director of Marketing.

Bringing over 20 years of experience in both the powersports and automotive sectors with him, Scott Neely feels right at home after his tenure at Cometic Gaskets. Neely is an avid dual-sport and off-road rider, who spend his free time behind the handlebars. “I’ve loved going fast and anything with a motor my entire life, so working in the industry was a dream come true for me,” said Neely.

Cary Redman, Vice President of Sales and Category Management said, “Scott Neely’s experience with various levels of channel partners and end users over the years in all facets of the powersports business, both domestic and international, has lent itself to a very well-rounded understanding of the powersports industry.”

Scott Highland brought over 30 years of powersports industry experience when he joined the Race Winning Brands in 2018. After originally being hired in the Director of Powersports role, Highland found himself naturally drawn to the marketing efforts in all segments of the business. He is no stranger to the marketing world, having contributed to marketing objectives in several Automotive and Powersports groups before RWB.

Scott Highland said, “As a lifetime enthusiast and racer, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my first four years here with Race Winning Brands. Race Winning Brand’s desire to service customers, expand product development, invest in resources and grow its portfolio of brands is a winning combination. There’s no doubt we’ve been growing over the recent years, and I look forward to accelerating these iconic brands.”

The Can-Am Pulse off-road electric bike isn’t expected to go on sale until the summer of 2024.

BRP has confirmed the start of construction of its first EV manufacturing plant. The Can-Am electric two-wheel motorcycle production facility will be built in Queretaro, Mexico, adjacent to the current BRP campus in the city. Production of the Can-Am Origin and Can-Am Pulse, the Company’s first two electric motorcycle models, is set to begin in March of 2024.

“We have set out to reclaim our motorcycle heritage with the launch of a lineup of electric two-wheel motorcycles, and we are gearing up to execute our plan,” said Sandy Scullion, President, Powersports Group at BRP. “We are excited to begin the construction of this new state-of-the-art EV manufacturing facility in Querétaro, Mexico, on the same campus where we are already producing our Sea-Doo personal watercraft and Rotax engines.”

The electric motorcycle manufacturing plant is planned to initially generate 500 new jobs. It was designed following the LEED principles with sustainable materials, in line with BRP’s “Corporate Social Responsibility Plan” to reduce the carbon footprint of its operations. Furthermore, the Company intends to offer an inclusive work environment accessible to everyone, with modifiable workstations that can be adapted to different people.

The 2022 World Vet Motocross Championship is shaping up to be a barn burner, as lots of former motocross stars from different decades are lining up to win the Over-30, Over-40, Over-50, Over-60 and Over-70 titles. Believe it or not, multi-time AMA 250 National Champion Gary Jones is now 70-years-old. He is the only rider to have won World Vet crowns in the Over-30, Over-40, Over-50 and Over-60 classes. If he can win the Over-70 title in 2022, he will have a Grand Slam in most of the important age groups. But Gary won’t be perfect because 1970s GP star Lars Larsson is the reigning Over-80 World Vet Champion and Gary Jones has to wait ten years before he’s old enough to get the clean sweep he wants.
