Hypermotard riders who love the Dakar!

sure, it's not a KTM ... and sure, it's probably only going to last 500 miles into the PD race ... but it sure looks cool

When I was at the Aprilia dealer today I got to see on ot the new MXV the all motocross bike and it is pretty damn wicked looking, super thin and super light. I hear Josh Coppins will be racing it in MX 1... should be interesting. I hear they are asking the AMA to let them run it against the 450 singles, but I hear AMA is balking at that... which is ultra lame...we need the new technologies in the race series, it makes it more interesting...
