Inside Adam Cianciarulo's 2019 Factory Pro Circuit Kawasaki KX250 - Motocross Action Magazine

It was a wild night of racing in Las Vegas for the entire 250 class. With 3 minutes left on the clock Adam Cianciarulo made a small mistake that cost him the championship. Adam has worked extremely hard to be competitive in a stacked field of riders and over came an immense amount of adversity including 2 shoulder surgeries. We know it wasn’t the best night for Adam but there is a lot left in the tank for the young all star. We caught up with Brandon Zimmerman under the Pro Circuit tent prior to the race to inspect all the goodies the team has come up with in order to keep Adam on the box every weekend. This very well might be Adam's last 250 year of his career but we know Adam will remain competitive regardless. Titanium axles, Pro Circuit engine, drilled engine hangars, 110 rear tire, fork guard jackets, DLC coated axles, titanium spring, custom foot pegs and much more. Sit back and enjoy all the details on Adam Cianciarulo's Factory Steed.

[@scottyboy7462]

i have never seen a more thorough overview of a pro bike. great job. what an amazing machine!!!!

[@stevepadilla9729]

Adam Has the #1 plate to me, but it doesn't count in the book of AMA. Hardest working, respectful person to his fans and total respect to his sponsors.

[@jasonthomas37]

Zimm is the man! Best mechanic in the pits.

[@maverick2242]

Pretty sic detail, 😍PC🤙

[@HarborEdwin]

Stuff happens....sweet ride! Predict AC will win outdoors this year, and move to 450 for remainder of his illustrious career.

[@tysonthewolfe93]

That'll be nice if AC Wins the National 250 Championship This year 2019.

[@meetURfate]

I doubt he will move to 450 class until he wins a 250 supercross title.

[@HarborEdwin]

@@meetURfate If he wins outdoors 2019...would think he'll head to 450's. He's 6'1 now. That's getting on the upper limits of a 250 power & size range...imo.

[@meetURfate]

EdwinHarbor yeah possibly. I would just think how close he was this SX season to winning the title he would probably give it another shot before moving up to 450. But if an outdoor title satisfies him as a SX would then I’ll still be as stoked for him

[@maxroko2374]

He said he won’t be moving up till 2021

[@codyjames8424]

Mechanic: “Adam likes to run the Renthal soft compound bars... I mean grips...” I’m just fuckin around. No hate. Adam is a beast!

[@mx118racer]

my ocd is flaming with that radiator vent hose poking out the skid plate !!

[@RyanWilson876]

That always bothers me when I see factory bikes that have the same issue.

[@rollnwithnolan]

Its not a vent hose. It's a brake pedal stop so it cant get bent out in a crash. It's a rubber covered cable.

[@mx118racer]

Nolan Stromberg @9:23 it’s the clear hose poking out the side on the gear shifter side .. 🤔

[@rollnwithnolan]

Thought you were talking about the one on the right

[@Zimm763]

PC has done it that way for the last few years now.. it’s so you can better confirm visually if the engine is over heating and spitting out coolant while going around the track. Easier to see than if the vent hose went into or out of the bottom of the skid plate like most

[@amdg2023]

You can't beat that number 92 it has an interesting history.

[@joebeier7638]

Just needs some unbendable bars

[@leerjet18]

Ain't that the truth!

[@itsjosephallen]

Too soon 😭

[@evanbastedo]

Bro I knew it was coming when I scrolled down 😂😂

[@lukepaul2882]

You mean training wheels

[@MrKnnthc93]

6:45, words that didn't age well..

[@leonardwashington710]

idk, Pro Circuit Kawi has a few championships

[@ricecrash5225]

No wonder the 250’s are lapping the same / quicker times as the 450’s. Serious horsepower in a lighter bike.

[@HadrienATF]

That's a KX250F not a KX250 and you can't change my mind Kawasaki...

[@if_ckedyourmom]

Kawi is my favorite brand but i hate how they took out the 2 strokes

[@Loganhundred]

Since there"s no 2 stroke anymore the F is kinda useless

[@natedotwales]

@@Loganhundred no its very misleading. I hate when I see a used bike for sale that says "2007 kx 250 $1500" and its just some ragged out 250f

[@Loganhundred]

@@natedotwales oh yeah this is misleading, but after 2008 it's fine

[@RyanWilson876]

Yeah, that upsets me too. We know they don't make them anymore but that's how it's been since the beginning so now taking the F off is just confusing. Keep the F.

[@qhughes4555]

Beautiful bike, to bad the rider couldn't win a championship on it better luck next year..

[@Lancer2004]

#RIPCianciarulo , I was at vegas and saw him go down, bummer, but im happy for ferrandis

[@toddsimone7182]

Practically no guard over the front sprocket. Looks sketchy but I guess they haven't had any issues.

[@kenharris8743]

Before the video started I thought they were talking about it to stroke. Anyways too bad there's not a two-stroke motor in there that thing would be even sicker otherwise nice chassis!

[@skippyf.t.pfilmthepolice2358]

Froffing at the bit. Imagine what this rided be like. FUCKING Plush as. All the best of luck Madman. May you holeshot ever race.

[@carspotterItaly0801]

First hi from italy

[@BigBeastfull]

Oh yeah I pretty much have the same setup, except I run pillow top grips

[@trustenbaker8766]

Can you believe it HAPPENED AGAIN TO HIM! Gezzz FUCK! Unreal!

[@monsterkxf]

Wow! 🤘🤘

[@caydenthompson126]

Doesn't the KTM team only run Fatbars to prevent bending? I thought I read something where Roger was saying that?

[@mikebrown41182]

They can use whatever they want. It’s still custom specs. Some guys just prefer the farbar to get more freedom. It’s rider preference.

[@QuizPick123]

Idk about bending but Fatbar vs twinwall is rider preference for sure. Fatbar you get more flex in the bars. Twinwall is more rigid and more track feedback but could wear you out faster being alil more harsh.

[@robl1271]

Can someone explain why the footpeg pins are upside down. Is it a choice for supercross. The way they are installed if the split pin gets damaged the footpeg is falling off.

[@keystonerider1308]

Rob Langston i think with deep ruts the cotter pin will get destroyed and your pin will push out. Done a lot with off-roaders too.

[@Runk3lsmcdougal]

Scared to look in the comments 😐

[@Factory928AC]

Gregd351 I felt the same but shit only 2 comments lol “ the bike that didn’t make it”

[@Runk3lsmcdougal]

@@Factory928AC FeelsBadMan, This is what i was worried about

[@mareksozols3927]

Is there a limit on team name letter count in Ama?

[@MAPEXable]

What brand hubs does it have...by the way sweet bike!!!

[@domvaccarello992]

Dubya

[@Zimm763]

Factory hubs from Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Japan

[@woodywoodlstein9519]

Did he mention the ignition ? Did I miss that ? Vortex ?

[@Zimm763]

Factory ECU from Japan

[@borntwice4724]

Spokes not tied together?🤔

[@JustinMentionedIt]

Can you say high six figure bike ?

[@funhouse1077]

That thing is like 25 k

[@JustinMentionedIt]

@@funhouse1077 you must not have seen the machines it takes to one off these products they make

[@funhouse1077]

The machines maybe but not the whole bike, how much is just one single engine, probably less than 10k, the rest of the bike is not 20 grand

[@JustinMentionedIt]

@@funhouse1077 I’ll go back to my original statement, it would take you way over six figures to create this bike for yourself

[@funhouse1077]

@@JustinMentionedIt yeah, looking at it that way I agree

[@oscarrodriguezparra433]

beutiful

[@t-train6534]

So how much are these mx 250’s making I know stock they make like 35 but they always have a fully built motor

[@nickoliver2096]

North of 45, probably closer to 50. You can buy a couple 250's off the showroom floor with more than 40 horsepower, nowadays.

[@QuizPick123]

Pro circuit dynod a stock KX250 with a production exhaust and it made 42. From 39. I would guess they’re VERY close to 50 if not at 50 with the race engines, high comp pistons, custom exhaust, custom mapping. That’s almost production 450 power 😬

[@CameronPerdue]

Weak handlebars?! Lol

[@Pajaroloco_Trips]

lol why ? they bend ?

[@robertbruning1510]

not vidieo related ...BUT could MXA tell punk kid next door the was no KX bike sold to the public in 1977! I worked at Kawasaki dealership from 76 till 1982...Could not even get a 79A4 Did buy 79 250 and 125!

[@tysonthewolfe93]

AC Got Screwed at Vegas

[@vwgtdturbo]

Which engine Oil 10w60?

[@Zimm763]

10w40

[@derrickfish7774]

I herd MP was passed wen he crash and saw the title went out the door

[@hayliej4705]

What’s the soundtrack?

[@gregoryvierra6114]

Nickelback

[@funhouse1077]

Why take apart the engine every race, these motors can funcion without losing any power for at least 10 races

[@Zimm763]

Just to make sure there aren’t any issues

[@mike_r4150]

Why our sport dies in 16 minutes.

[@benthompson5887]

that should be frandis bike he is the champion AC blew it He chokes every year

[@Factory928AC]

Ac! 😭

[@tysonthewolfe93]

AC Was Fast and Ferrandis is Fast in the West Coast, In the East Coast Austin Forkner did so good 5 Wins DNQ'd at Nashville hurts himself and then Finishing Last Place at New Jersey By Losing the Championship to the East Rutherford Supercross Winner Chase Sexton, AC And AF Were Kawasaki 250 Losers

[@krs5259]

privateers have no chance anymore no wonder the sport is dying and people are walking away

[@Sevencities7]

We need more factory teams to get more people factory rides.

[@user-nx1pf4ff7c]

😃😃😃

[@mikecrawford73]

bring back the 1975 elsinore easy

[@flyinghigh9106]

Just need some consistency out of the rider

[@bewimotos]

"we are the best team" yet they havent won a championship in a while

[@richlee7047]

They won championship last year

[@Zimm763]

Best team because they work the hardest, every mechanic is responsible for his own engines. No other team is like that these days

[@bradfordleonardo6186]

100k in that thing and he still can't win

[@funhouse1077]

Haha more like 35k
