Well the 2008 season is upon us! In order to get ready we started working on our bikes to make sure they were tuned and ready to perform. Mark had a ring go bad and scored up his cylindar, so we had to take it to our new sponsor nmotion to get the motor work done. Mark decided he wanted to go with a big bore kit on his 06 LTR 450 but decided on a stock cylindar instead. We added a power commander, sweet nmotion carbon fiber pipe, and had the dyno it. The bike is running great and will be very competitive this season!

The 50 and 90 bikes were running great but we ended up redoing the top end on all 3 of them. In the process we decided to pick up a TRX 90 and try our hand in the four stroke market to see if they would be competitive. The boys do not like the lack of power so we will stay on the 2 strokes for now.

Jace broke his tranny and frame while practicing at the house, so we put a new 90cc gear ration tranny in it. While I had it apart I also replaced the torsion spring and put a brand new clutch in it. This little bike rips in the corners now and will not fail to get a holeshot.

Jeffrey had his new bikes top end go out, so we replaced it and within a week of getting it going he broke his steering stem in practice. We pulled it out and welded it back up and he is ready to go again.

We sold Trey's 250 EX this spring and bought him a brand new raptor 250 from nmotion. This is the sweetest bike made since Suzuki released the LTR. This bike stock has serious power for a young rider. I believe it will take a 300EX in the hole shot or open straight. The bike is pretty narrow, so we widened it out and put nerf bars on it. The stock suspension looks to be the same as the YZF 450, so it is pretty nice right out of the box. Put a kill switch and number plates on it and he is off and racing.

More to come later!
