How about a video of mod's to make the Slam as close to race worthy as possible ??? (The cheapest way possible) good challenge for you super smart guys and it might make it easier for people on a small budget to get into the sport !!! win-win-win I think.

This video shows you don't NEED any modifications... More importantly, It's just not worth buying a Chinese bike and modifying it. Youll lose Any money in parts you put into it, thats if someone else would even be willing to buy a used Chinese bike. You can buy a 1995 to 2010 mx bike for the same price and those would be more capable. Plus, youd be able to sell it.
I would say the Kayo r6 would be a better/fair test. Still a good video
When going through tech seeing the competitor looking at Sean's bike (is he serious) priceless, then the resourceful Sean evens the playing field lol great fun, good video.

Fair play Sean, shows your fitness level. 2 classes and going back to the slam from the gasgas must've felt heart braking, so much harder work to ride the slam, so to come away with a 2nd and 1st given what you're up against is insane. Cracking riding

That GPS doodad sounds pretty cool. I don’t know all the functionality but it would be wild if it could vary the engine mapping throughout the lap, so if there’s a sand section or a deep mud spot it could adjust for that area and then go back to normal for the rest of the track.
Shawn is Slam's new factory rider! Of course budget constraints limit the perks to: leftover Chinese takeout, and turning your own wrenches 😛

Although the Slam Bike is fairly cheap with a few years R&D in the race scene I wouldn't be surprised if they were able to turn out a competitive race bike at a budget price point which can only be a good thing bringing in more racers who would have otherwise been priced out of racing. (Not a MX person so I may be completely wrong)
31:35 those valves
I have a wpb 190 beast and my dad has a 10ten 250rx and there both flawless no problems at all never missed a beat
I've been thinking, you build awesome 2 stroke engines, why not build some engine for 4T. That slam 250 with more power looks fun
Just started watching this 2nd time now like it alot live in UK and looking for moto classes do u no any
Shawn is impressive on that Chinese bike my hats off to you sir. 👍idc what anyone says that’s damn impressive that that bike held together and with a great rider like Shawn it can be competitive and it’s bone stock.
You should put some new bits on the slam like ie suspension back and front but what a race
Just shows if you have a good rider on a crap bike, it doesn't work the other way round though - No matter how good the bike is
Try and compare chinese kews k23 nx250 or kayo k6r or kove 250mx with europeian bike
Brilliant

I'd have more fun riding the $2000 bike, and in fact buy two or three ( for immediate extra parts,)and take the remaining $14,000 and ride one to the southernmost tip of south America on a real adventure with the money saved. but that's just me. I don't need to chase others around any more to prove who has the "best" or "fastest bike" I just seek real adventures with more meaning. Full disclosure, I live in SE Asia half of each year and see Chinese bikes riding adventure and enduro all the time .. on a fraction of the budget.
Where’s the RM 250 bro, and what have you decided to do with it.

Funny but I would rather see how the cheap bike compares with the Honda/Kawasaki/Yamaha air cooled 230-250's. Comparing it to a KTM/Husky?Gasgas/Beta/Sherco is not very interesting to me.
Should have had two races both ride each bike.
What kinda track is that without jumps? More enduro?
isn't this a bad comparison considering the china bike is not a motocross bike?

Have you tried any other Chinese bikes? The Slam seems worth the money for someone on a budget, but there are no dealers in the US. Most Chinese bikes I've seen here won't take any serious riding and keep running.

no this is the only one we've tried, we've asked a few of the manufacturers of the higher spec ones (Kove, Koshine,etc) but they don't seem to want to play with us at the moment

the chinese bike dont stand a chance on a real motocross track, that one was like asphalt with no bumps whatsoever.

What would be cool and I know a lot of people and parents. Have asked me can you take a Chinese bike put 3 to 5 grand into the thing and have a solid race bike. At first I laughed and said no then I personally road and xpro 250 it runs an older ktm frame the motor is one of the old honda 250 air coold clomes. After the ride, my answer turned to yes. But would make for a cool video to see if you can make a legit A class bike with a little money. Thanks GHOST 777
Ask David Pingree how he feels.
None of this made much sense. If one of you gonna be so far ahead anyway might as well have the GasGas in A class, heck, both of you are clearly way better riders than the rest of that group. Highway robbery... Lucky the other riders did not take you both and dragged you behind their bikes around the track imo! xD Whats next? Stark Varg VS Electric One Wheel on a Motocross track? xD ...hey, they all come from China as well, the one wheels that is...
Can you do the same test with a kayo? Or any China 250 with 4 valves?
