@EarthSurferUSA it maybe comparing apples to oranges, but both Ferrari and GG are pretty sweet looking and a blast to ride/drive. Not seeing the comparison is just bananas. 😊
That “RPM Reader” is highly suspect too me. If that box can secretly sense the front wheel speed… I bet they could write an amazing TC Map with that data tapped into the ecu.

A very sick looking bike. I'm kind of surprised they treat the for tubes with a nitride coating for friction reduction... or do they use a colorless method?
@@EarthSurferUSA The bike is very "pretty," colors and all. Yes, the factory forks are unobtanium for non-factory racers. It's a very nice motorcycle. What I meant by colorless method, is that usually fork tubes that are treated with titanium nitride, have a blue or green hue to them... his look "stock."
Im not an Austrian bike fan at all at this point, but ive never owned one as well, all the people we race that do, always complain how easily they break and how expensive their parts are and the parts seem to be cheaply made they said at that....
I haven’t heard anyone complain about Austrian bikes in nearly a decade. Heard plenty of people complain about kawi tho.. myself included. You want to talk about cheap parts and cutting corners, talk about Kawasaki.
Hmmm that’s odd, because I own multiple brands. Work on bikes for a living and every brands got their issues, but there’s a reason that Austrian bikes are everywhere right now and dominating the market. The Austrian bikes by far have the best fit and finish of any bike other than a Honda. Their parts are approximately the same cost in most cases and nicer. there are some exceptions to things costing the same though. They’re way easier to work on as well than any other color these days. The trick with them is maintenance. They have extremely tight tolerances and they don’t like it if you don’t keep on schedule with things. If you maintain your bike properly they’re no different than any other brand…. Maybe you should try one before saying your not a fan. That’s like saying you hate chicken but never had it before. 😂
@@user-mo8tm4jw2l maybe you should read someone’s comment and not have the overwhelming urge to put your two cents in! We race every weekend, we see them every weekend and can confirm it all just by watching them!
@@BLUUU52 really, we have raced with Kawis for years, never one problem! For instance My sons first bike went 108 hours on all stock everything before a rebuild and was still going fine, and all the kids that race them every weekend are out there racing, but the more expensive bikes are the ones we all see go down constantly! The man who told me that him, and his kids only race with KTM’s, and is completely tired of them, breaking constantly paying more to fix them, and the parts failing constantly, so straight from a consumer of their best brand! And we all see it at the tracks every weekend, and yes at machine can and will have problems at some point.
I wish more mechanics gave interviews like Cody Champagne. He knows his bike, and is well spoken. This was a great episode.
Great mechanic for sure.
@EarthSurferUSA I vote for more mechanics pt of view. Lots great info. 👍🏻 -Michigan
I love the way that bike looks. Its the only bike that looks like a Ferrari, and the way JB rides it, it handles like one.

That was an awesome bike rundown! Thanks for the post. Lets go Bam Bam! ✊🏻🔥🔥
New Jersey's own Justin Barcia! He rocks 😎
This was the best episode yet. Keep them coming please!
Bike is so trick, was happy to see him get that w this weekend!
Best setup by far obviously loves fast throttle response
"His throttle play, he likes VERY little." LOL imagine that. He's on the gas ALWAYS!
Best bike in the paddock, Eli Tomacs Yz was the favourite but this one 👌

I thought the same...
the first rule of fight club..........
4:18 where can I buy that shift lever tip?
isn,t it a risk running stock levers as opposed to pivot style levers which are less prone to breaking?
Where does one buy an akrapovic skid plate it looks amazing
9:45 “there’s no way that thing is getting destroyed”.
We’re talking about bam bam here….
Barcia clutch destroyer
Dopest looking bike in the field, and Bam Bam is the loosest unit 🤘🏻
Nice, i hope you’ll also have the ET3 bike.
Looks like a demo derby racer! 😂😂😂
Keep it pinned Barcia!
One of the sickest bikes out there!!! I would sell my wife and kids for one... well maybe not sell them, just loan them out...LOL
Look at that Akrapovič pipe!
What shock is that?

Barcia is pretty good.
Looks a lot better than a KTM

Spring fork 52’s aye

Bela moto 👍
They don't run the coating on the shock or fork tubes
Make an Eli Tomac bike check

So some things never change.

Shouldn't he have some bumpers on there as well......😂
RPM reader? Did they stop calling them tachometers? Fk I'm old
Why not just want a fan ?
It’s a KTM along with husky just under a different name for sales 🤫🤷♂️
It may be, but it has different characteristics in handling and motor.
you must be fun at parties
@@overruncunttube thanks LC🤣🤷♂️
reported to KTM for letting out secrets no one knows about
Still looks better then both.. and seems to handle better rn too.
Barcia sucks!!!!
