And that is why I have the respect that I do for the man... He has no problem telling you what he thinks, but has enough confidence in himself and respect for others to want you to form your own opinion. Rare to have in today's society... But Richy is not your average dude either. He may not write a magazine, though he could, but what this guy adds to the sport in a week is more than the entire crew at MXA will ever add. If you saw the guy at DW01 you know what I mean, he was all over the place... Flagging events, fixing bikes, pulling motors... why? because the dude just loves the sport so much he wants everyone to have a good time. His time is given with out regard to himself rather he knows who he is helping or not. Get on the bad side of him or his pals and guess what... you have lost one of the best resources dirt biking has ever known (at least in my time), and more than that you have lost THE best resource of humanity in any sport IMO.Originally posted by Rich Rohrich
As with most things in life it's best to form your own opinion. My opinion is just that MY OPINION :D

Don't knock the triple offset change until you try it.
And as for the crappy California dirt that was a joke.
Not a single person that rides for MXA works for Yamaha despite what you guys think. My Dad (Alan Olson) is Dubach's mechanic, but he does it because he loves it.
I didn't mean to backpedal on the test if that's the way it sounded. The bike doesn't turn. Changing the triple clamp offset and the springs helped resolve the problem. End of story.
I hope the Cannondale succeeds with their four-stroke and resolves the teething problems. Maybe at that point they'll let us test another bike.
Now I'm off trying to figure out exactly what barometric pressure is and why it might affect my (product plug) Renthal soft half waffle grips.
Sincerely,

Get on the bad side of him or his pals and guess what...

To say the least your bike test format is very long in the tooth. Question One: How fast is it? Question Two: Hows the suspension? Etc. Please come up with a different format!

I gotta hand it to you for sticking around with all of these flames lapping at your backside - it can get pretty hot in here.

Disagree.
Again, he is NOT adressing the questions. End of story.
It would be awe-inspiring, however, if an ASS avatar (tattood with MXA nonetheless :D ) were applied--yet he showed up frequently to debate the attributes of the varioius silencer plugs....;)
THEN, I would respect him.:debil:
Could be one of two reasons.Originally posted by spanky250
Not that this is truly related to this thread, but why is it that the only time Tim posts anything on our site is when their is a Flame thread about MXA? If he has something to say, why doesn't he post in a forum just like everyone else? Does he simply like getting flamed?
