Twin pipes on the Honda's cause all kinds of issues. Heat, spacing, exhaust mounts, shock clearance. They should get with the program, lighten the bike and clean it up.
not to mention, the extra weight, is high and back, totally away from the COG of the bike. PLUS, if u go down, now you have the possibility of getting burnt on both sides of the bike, mufflers and headers.
I don’t get it, with all the custom parts JGR is capable of, one would figure they could put a starter on their works bike. Unless is an AMA production rule thing?
PaulXT1200Z I think the factory teams are sticking with the kick starters (on the bikes that still have them) for reliability reasons. I remember Ken roczen had an issue where the bike wouldn’t restart using the electric starter. Not this season but the issue has come up. I’ve seen kits to add kick starters to electric start bikes but they cost a couple hundred bucks.
@David Pingree it looks like all those electrical connections were what is called "MIL" spec which stands for military spec for the same reasons as the wire ties just reliability but it's all pretty bad ass huh ? Love the videos thanks for all the inside bits that radiator that cools the motor oil as well that is cool
I think that kit clutch piece is an actuator that you set that controls the way the clutch is released on the start. The way they work is it only controls the initial clutch release, so once the clutch is out, it functions normal. 2 start tools: the suspension pre-load, and the clutch actuator.
That orange kite piece on the side of the engine is the Slave cylinder. The stock OEM pieces have been known to go out on both the Huskqarna and KTM. Mine just went out last week on my husky and I barely replaced it the other day with a new one by rekluse. Works great!
No doubt those Hondas look the best ever. Troy lee is always sick. Yamaha.......Next plz. The Kawi looks killer this year also. JGR is lookin fly and I guess Husky was on the hush hush.
19:28 all the weight they save with ti bolts and drilling washers, they leave that extra meet on the disc card, where the lower part of the fork guard already protects. not to mention, if you wanna take that fork guard off, u gotta take the disc card off. also, takes away from clearance going through ruts.
Have you used seafoam in any your two stroke dirtbike's to clean the power valves and carburetor system yet. Is this something you would recommend or do yourself
6:01 and 18:00 they even cut out unnecessary parts of graphics to drop weight... and for the side number plate part, to keep it from peeling from boot rub.
So basically.... just coat everything in hard to find expensive coatings and get a set of "custom" triple clamps that are "higher" than normal, a lrg radiator and Im gonna make the main right?
@@sydneyann20101 Wow....great idea. Especially when you are surrounded by several other loud 4 strokes and the sound may be the exact as the guy next to you!
I know we can't buy these bikes because of factory parts, but what would one of these cost to build to get it as close as possible to the factory bikes? $50-70k?
the honda is the best looking bike of all of them, but i'm not a fan of the dual exhaust. the yamaha looks good up close, but doesn't look that good at a distance
Ping knows moto better than just about anyone. The teams need to prep the bikes among other things and I feel like he’s just scrambling and trying to hurry and record with them so he’s not bugging the teams.
Racer x must be pushing him to know more because he has picked it up.Motocross Action seemslike they are more gearhead about the bikes.But Ping is usually right.But he doesn't seem like a hands on dude but knows enough to admire it so you will too.
Ping does well. If you did get a factory mechanic to review their bike they would give you a generic description anyway. They sure as hell are not going to give away any secrets.
God almighty! That's Honda is amazing and it's got a touch of old school to me with the honda wing on the shroud. Reminds me of the 80's CR's
Lawdy that Honda is gorgeous!
Absolute works of art. Awesome dirtbikes.
Much better this video than the 450 with a closer look to the bikes perfect!!
Sweet, I was hoping you guy's would do the 250's. Awesome job Ping
Yep. Best videos ever!!! I wish someone would do the exact same thing with roadrace bikes, sports cars, et al. Oh, and that ‘Stache is FANTASTIC!
fascinated about the engine mounts. Keep on it!
The ARC composite levers are the best upgrade I ever went for. Amazing but cost a small fortune.

You're probably right but it looks damn cool.

@@Chrissy-H I agree and Im on a KTM
Beautiful bikes! Love the way that ktm looks! Ping does it the best
Great work getting the close up’s this time! Makes it so much better!
Great video. Good job guys.
14:42 *look at that kick starter!*
I don’t get it, with all the custom parts JGR is capable of, one would figure they could put a starter on their works bike. Unless is an AMA production rule thing?
Would ya just look at it.

Some factory bikes are running backup starters. Ex. Cole seelys bike. Has 2 electric starts Incase if crash or something
Gavin Grant I remember that Honda embarrassing incident, good point!

TLD Ktms are the best looking bikes out there and I'm a yammie fan
DaWhite EazyE what kinda yami fan says that
@@lukepaul2882 EXACTLY LOL
Excellent video quality. I wish I could get my videos to look like this.
They all look good, but the Yamaha is just the fastest
Ive got some of those raptor pegs and they honestly feel so much better
Very good video, very interesting
No doubt those Hondas look the best ever. Troy lee is always sick. Yamaha.......Next plz. The Kawi looks killer this year also. JGR is lookin fly and I guess Husky was on the hush hush.
Amazing content and showcasing. Would take any of these bikes.
Wow Madman, this is a great video. So much information in this video. Factory teams letting you showing these insane bike s. Very very cool..
19:28 all the weight they save with ti bolts and drilling washers, they leave that extra meet on the disc card, where the lower part of the fork guard already protects.

Great detailed video and thanks to the cameraman for zooming in this time. @21:08 did you say champion SH*T chase lool.
Yay the camera man did a good job this time
Have you used seafoam in any your two stroke dirtbike's to clean the power valves and carburetor system yet. Is this something you would recommend or do yourself
Great video, thanks 👍
Gotta love those 1400$ foot pegs. MEPCK
THAT VIDEO WAS GREAT MY FRIEND !
Why doesn’t pro circuit use their own fork
They don't make forks...
6:01 and 18:00 they even cut out unnecessary parts of graphics to drop weight... and for the side number plate part, to keep it from peeling from boot rub.
Wooow im a trail rider but i can’t afford like beautiful bikelike that,,awesome bikes..
Toby Tolentino these bikes cost upwards of $70-80K and certain parts are custom made specifically for them.
So expensive....😊
Pings stash could only be better if complemented by some mirror finish aviator shades, or some PitVipers!
I like David doing this
Nice bikes
Yamaha 😵🙏🙌💓💥 is insane I hope they make a works edition like the crf250rwe
You mean 450r works edition
Round 2? Did I dream last week?
I’m confused why gieco Honda is running a pro circuit shifter anyone notice that?
Husky?
Shy arent some of the parts sold to the public, what would they lose??
**why**
So basically.... just coat everything in hard to find expensive coatings and get a set of "custom" triple clamps that are "higher" than normal, a lrg radiator and Im gonna make the main right?
great job Pingree!! Damn that Honda. I’d rather look at that than a scantily clad supermodel!! Does that make me weird???
What size rear tire are they running? 120/90-19?
Can someone tell me WTH is on the KTM front fender at the 1:00 mark???!!! It's just below the number plate and is square.
Its from GET it shows the rpm range so the rider can launch at the right rpm on the start
@@sydneyann20101 Wow....great idea. Especially when you are surrounded by several other loud 4 strokes and the sound may be the exact as the guy next to you!
I always have green shavings on my Honda.
Geico is the HRC 250
What happened to huskie
No öhlinss susspenssion ?
Big fan of jimmy d. Really hoe to see him do good things next year.
I know we can't buy these bikes because of factory parts, but what would one of these cost to build to get it as close as possible to the factory bikes? $50-70k?
I'd say $30k-$40k.
Commentators said the factory bikes were in the 40k range back when Bob Hannah was racing.
The Suzuki and ktm look the best then kawi then Honda and Yamaha.
Pinger...lookin like a south park character! whats your stashes name??, that things alive hahaha
Don't you mean round 3 ;)
I've heard that these factory 250f motors make very close to stock 450 power. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Maybe not today' stock 58-60 hp 450's but I have heard the pro circuit 250f was making 49hp. That was years ago
I bet they're 5-10hp off from a stock 450.
Hope you put sugar in B.J’s gas tank. He’s the new Marquez
No ktm's !?!?
13:59 that head pipe chamber is practically touching the radiator hose, smh.
Is it just me or do the 250s look way more trick than the 450s?
They look the same to me.
forgot husqurvarna
the honda is the best looking bike of all of them, but i'm not a fan of the dual exhaust. the yamaha looks good up close, but doesn't look that good at a distance
What a dramatic difference from last weeks video! You guys did closeups! Awesome! Thanks!
I always heard it pronounced
“Ah-k-row-poe-Vick!” Hahaha
WR450R/X please
we don't need or want a 3 wheel trike Niken
Looking at these just makes me feel bad for the privateer riders😂 they have no chance against these beauts
Great videos...porn for bike enthusiasts...Pingree should be doing the commentary for the races instead if Carmichael hes very well spoken
Honda... 😯
Wares the husky
🔥🔥👌
AKRAPOVIĆ not AKRAPOVIK
Damn
This guy isn't sure about pretty much everything, I have no idea what any of these really cool parts are... really dude?
1st ktm. 2nd honda
They all look trick
Does anyone get the feeling this guy has no damm idea what in the hell hes trying to describe.
Something is not right.
Agreed. Good effort but I'd much rather have the mechanic talk about it to see what the real functionality is.
Ping is cool but you can tell he doesn't throw wrenches too much. lol.
Ping knows moto better than just about anyone. The teams need to prep the bikes among other things and I feel like he’s just scrambling and trying to hurry and record with them so he’s not bugging the teams.
Racer x must be pushing him to know more because he has picked it up.Motocross Action seemslike they are more gearhead about the bikes.But Ping is usually right.But he doesn't seem like a hands on dude but knows enough to admire it so you will too.

A man with a mustache like that should slow down on using the word trick so much
Cameraman did better job this tune
hondas dont break down as much
Gift me bike sir i want to be a rider in the Philippines 🥺❤️
Suzuki sure is stuck in the past. Still wondering when they’re going to go out of business.
How so? They don't have electric start, but what else?
