Works Connection Offset Titanium Footpeg Mounts (Yamaha YZ250/450F)

If there is something I can’t stand on the 2022 and earlier Yamaha YZ250/450F's is the rider triangle. It is cramped, my legs feel high up when seated and the seat feels like I am sitting in a valley. I have tried several different offset pegs as well as tall seats and different spec bars.…

Tire Test: To Scoop Or Not To Scoop?

Scooping is the talk of the motocross broadcast on Saturdays so I thought why not break it all down for you since I ride on a Dunlop MX14 and MX33 regularly. The MX33 is a soft to intermediate terrain tire that is the usual go to tire for most Dunlop riders. The MX14 is a…

PDR Performance Offset Footpeg Mount (Yamaha YZ450F)

If you read my review of the Raptor offset pegs for the Yamaha YZ450F you know that I am a fan of the -5mm down/back pegs as well as the -7mm down setting. However, there hasn’t been anyone yet that is making the offset from the mount for the consumer. The Star Racing Yamaha guys…

How To Turn Your YZ/Nissin Brakes Into KTM/Brembo Brakes

So are you tired of that spongey feeling stock Yamaha brake? Since I get to ride all the bikes, I would have to say that the Brembo system is one of the best feeling brakes out of all the MX machines. However, a little mix and matching can get you a more linear feel than…

Corner Coach Adjustable Seat Bump

I am not a huge seat bump guy, but when Ryan Nitzen of Corner Coach gave me this removable seat bump, I thought it was a pretty good damn idea. The Corner Coach is the only adjustable and removable option that allows riders to choose the position of the seat bump. Need to sit farther…

Akrapovic Evolution System (2022 Honda CRF250R)

I had this initial impression of the Akrapovic Evolution muffler system as I was doing a Racer X Garage Build on the 2022 Honda CR250R. After riding with the system for some time I came away with some notes that you may have not known about the beautiful system for the new generation CRF250R. The…

Twisted Development Exhaust Flange For 2022.5-2023 KTM 450 SX-F

The Twisted Development exhaust flanges are shaped differently than the stock OEM flange, which can change the engine character of the new KTM 450 SX-F. We went through several during testing and found out a size/shape that can actually enhance the low to mid range power character. Compared to the stock piece the TD Performance…
