That's pretty much what I said. This in my book is interest not ownership of KYB....right? Maybe interest was the wrong choice of words.

Thats easy. To overcomplicate and introduce more potential failure points into a very reliable engine.

Its what all the cool kids say, haven't you been paying attention to the internets?

I'm not even sold on a smart carb. I like my keihin's!!

My buddy runs a smart carb and has to spray starting fluid in his bike at every cold start! Lol. He cracks me up has an A/F meter and spends all kinds of time dicking with it and now has to break out the Ether to get his bike started. We call it Smart Start fluid!

I do not need smoke my doctor gave me lots of oxicontin 5mil. of that and nothin hurts at all ! Major surgery taught me alot about pain management . Now as far as dreaming I cant wait for me to be healthy again . I will be racing more this year by far than I ever have in my life . So all the things I am wishing for will be on my bike , but would it be cool if you could buy a bike done . Beta offers a build your own bike deal but I ride GasGas and like em . Since this post started with the front boingers I would like to see a great nonair fork .

As for what suspension GG will use moving forward, I am told it will not be Sachs, and we should hear news of which brand will be used on the new bikes sometime in Jan.

For me, I was very vocal in requesting KYB front and rear BUT...I wouldn't be surprised to see Ohlins used.

I thought you were confusing the marzocchi sale with the mountain bike stuff being picked up by fox - but someone just posted this article on the beta riders club forum...
