I checked the comments just to see if your comment had been made. Lol. You bet me too it. Harleys look great on a flat track. That was really funny.. lol.

I’m a moto guy but if you want this to be something you need a hill. Like a ski slope would be pretty sick with some legit obstacles. This is a drag race on snow.

Obviously completely oblivious of the enormous amount or racing bikes that are built around Harley engines that absolutely dominate the drag racing and hill climb world I guess. I remember when I was a teenager and I though that harleys were dumb and slow. Then I visited a drag racing event for about 10 seconds and learned that they’re extremely popular in serious racing.

Calling this a competition is an insult to motocross, motorbikes... and even sport.

I’m a motohead and love everything 2 wheels. But this was stupid. Honestly could have been performed via remote control bikes and would have had the same affect. Disappointed.

Well you're PRETTY WRONG. I was being VERY kind. The famouse CR500 made only 55hp! The KX500 was the highest hp producing dirtbike ever in production and it made 63hp stock, modified it supposedly made 65hp. Furthermore the HD motors on nitro make above 200whp, I was being conservative. So there ya go, facts on the matter. If you'd like a reference, here's one: motocrossactionmag.com/motocross-actions-two-stroke-versus-four-stroke-shootout-2004-crf450-versus-2001-cr500/ "CR500 two-stroke pumps out approximately 55 horsepower" -MXA.

Awesome

You don't have to be old to be a grandpa. One of my longtime friends that I've known since we both were 6 became one when he was 34.

The frame isn’t modified, they just take out the dirt bike motor and cram in a slightly less shitty version of a Harley v-twin. Basically they used dirt bike frames but Harley engines because Harley paid to have the sport put in the x games. Pretty sure if somebody showed up with maico 750 they would have smoked the Harley engine bikes.

Do they really deserve the same medals? It's a respectable sport but they are not nearly risking their lives like most are. Let alone there wasn't even a qualifier, these guys showed up for 30minutes and are walking off with medals. Maybe if there was 20 riders, qualifiers, and it was steeper it would have a better approval in my opinion.
