Carmichael was such a good champ. He had fire in him when he raced and i sometimes feel like that fire they had back then is a lost art. today ridders are still amazingly fast but when i watched Carmichael especially against Stewart they battled hard really really hard. Maybe Villapoto just makes it look to easy but I miss the back and forth battles. Carmichael is so well spoken and smart too.

Well put. You could see the fire in him when he was racing, both on and off of the track. He retired before that flame died out. Villopoto (who is my favorite rider) just doesn't look like he has that fire anymore. Keyword: anymore. He'll settle for a lower finish before going all-out for a win. And maybe thats the smarter thing to do, He's still the best right now, but even in interviews he just seems tired of everything. After Poto retires I feel that the era of great champions will be over. I don't think there will be back-to-back champions in supercross or motocross for atleast a little while. And thats not saying there won't be another era in the future filled with dominance and all time greats, but I don't see the current crop of riders coming up beating any records.

To the fools who badmouth KTM.....just jealousy cause you can't afford one of the best designed and built off road bikes.....Steel frames because they handle and ride better than aluminum. KTM shows no weight disadvantage to the Japanese bikes and better/usable power. I own 2 now along with 3 Hondas........RC's right....just have fun!

While I prefer Yamaha, KTM is definitely not shit. KTM is the most premium bike out there. Most people don't know that all the pro teams that are sponsored by the big 4 replace their frames roughly every three races. KTM frames last the whole year. Aluminum becomes brittle as it is stretched. Chromoly KTM frames do not and they have deflection built into them.

It doesn't matter what you ride. Suzuki, KTM, Honda, Yamaha, it's all build for the same purpose and all of them will eventually break down. It's what you prefer what counts. If you think KTM has better suspension compared to Honda and you feel more comfortable on a KTM, you should ride one. And if you think Suzuki is the best, no one will hold you back from buying one. Just make sure YOU ride the bike, instead of the other way around.

I started on a KTM, I own 2. IN all the time iv owned them they have not had one single problem. At 90 hours on one of them we took it into the shop. The guy told us the bike was sportless and needed nothing. KTM makes good all around bikes for the track and the woods. But there prices are very high witch makes people go away from them. Don't get me wrong Honda, Yamaha, and kawi are all good names. But if you are going hard and have the cash. Put it down on a KTM.

Ricky, The rivalry I remember most was Ponca City '93 when you and Charlie Bogard were fighting it out in the super-minis. After all the rain and mud you guys where clearing impossible jumps that the 250 pro class wouldn't try. I especially loved the way you two would hit the kicker before the tabletop right down front. That should have slowed you down, but you both did some magic superman fly and got there before the bike, then at the last minute you just reached down and jerked those handle bars as far forward as you could. Every lap you both just cased it, but as long as you could get the front wheel on top it was full throttle all the way. After that race everyone knew that 13 year old RC was faster than Charlie B. I solute you master Carmichael!

I've always been partial to Honda, but I've always recognized their lack of quality suspension. They normally are very reliable well built bikes. My new 2014 Honda CRF450X actually had a manufacture defected frozen carburetor screw which I had tapped and replaced. The suspension on this model has received alot of criticism, but I am very happy with it. I've seen KTMs growing up, and my buddy currently owns a 2014 KTM 450SX-F. They have always been very fast reliable bikes. My personal favorite thing about KTMs is their ability to ride smooth at any rpm in any gear. My friends a new rider, and he frequently is in 3rd taking technical slow speed ground and the KTM doesn't even struggle to maintain power. They excel in the woods technically for this reason. I've been to alot of Mike Laffertys races, and he also has shown how the top ends of KTMs always seem to be smoother and more versatile going into corners in various gears.

KTM produces the best Enduro bikes in the world. Anyone who has done extreme enduro on a ktm will confirm that for you. Ricky was a pro mx rider. Different story. If he didn't ride KTMs it's because he wasn't payed to do so. KTMs are premium bikes with very good build quality. They break when they get abused and used very hard like every other bike or component or even human body does. And most times they take the punishment really well. The only fault in the brand is the VERY expensive spare parts and the difficulty reaching them in some parts of the world. KTM is the only brand that produces different engines, frames and components for enduro, mx and supermotard. All the Japanese brands produce one mx bike and give it to other companies to convert it to enduro or supermoto. If you use the bike for what its made for, properly maintain it and respect it, it is most likely that you will have a happy and joyful relationship with it. No matter the brand or the model. I've had Honda, Suzuki, KTM, even had Piaggio Vespa when i was little, and besides a near death experience with a GSXR (which ofc was my fault) i had happy days and wonderful memories with all my bikes. Congrats to Ricky for all his achievements.

People are always trying to find some info about which brand to buy. Here is the facts. Bikes today are designed by very sophisticated engineers and software programs that pretty much deliver amazing bikes period. The difference between one brand vs another is almost not important anymore for a novice. That being said you cant look to pro's for advice. Yes they are sponsored but truly amazing/great riders can do it on anything. Most of the bikes you see these guys ride are not even close to a factory bike anyways so why even compare. Some bikes have a little more power, balance, braking whatever but the average rider can't push those limits to even matter so why obsess. its Stupid. A bike that still stands out above the rest is a KX500 two stoke. If you want something amazing and mind blowing find one of those. That's different. That's worth comparing. Doesn't matter what you buy now. Just pick your favorite color and go have fun.

I think of KTM s as thoroughbred racehorses, high performance but require high end maintenance program.Japanese bikes are more robust 'weekend warrior' rides, they can be abused & hold up ( for a while)

Whaaaat absolute bullshit. First and foremost: IF KTM decided to sponsor him, they willl fucking sponsor him. Where Suzuki filed for bankruptcy, KTM's are selling like hotcakes and it shows in the insane amount of factory teams they are fielding. When Rockstar dropped Suzuki, guess who they went to? Every bike is the same right???? Yeah maybe 30-40 years ago when you got a works bike built EXACTLY for you from the ground up. With the production rule, if you cant stand the frame of a certain brand, its time to switch. Learn your facts before you go posting dumb arse.

Anyone who's owned a KTM and AND another bike at the same time... Knows what a KTM is. Don't buy a Ferrari unless you can afford to maintain it and hunt for parts like a blind man in a parts bin when it goes out of production. I have an NX250 and a Duke 2. Loved the Duke ex the engine that threw a valve... The Honda is just now getting a top end after 30,000 hard core supermoto tail out MILES and the bottom end is as tight as a drum. I had to give my Duke away.

Cut me and i bleed Honda red. I lose count on Hondas my family has bought, 3 wheelers, 4, dirt bikes, street, crotch rockets, touring. I must say though, for woods, hills, or all day, KTM 450 is my first choice. I'm 44 and 250lbs. KTM electric start on a hill and that super low torque even without a Rekluse is my best friend! Reliabilty? Probably the Honda.
