nice vid dude and good tips with the wire on the oil filler i am in the process of race readying my husaberg 650 where did you buy the peg sliders from as I have found some ufo ones on ebay for 15 bucks and want thoses cheaper ones you have thanks
@soapbox94 ah i see so they a good deal yh i shall buy them then as even on the street I keep scraping my peg and its nearly had me off a few times haha
@CR125MANIAC Ironically, the reason we require them is to protect the track, not the bike/rider. And even more ironic, is the fact that the big crash grooves in the tarmac are caused by the bolt/pivot area of the footpeg that's not even protected by the pegslider.
tell me: in the unfortunate event of a crash, are those little wires suposed to hold up?! well i guess they are indeed better than not being there... i was just wondering about the oil cap. in a crash, if the in engine pressure gets higher, that cap will come off no matter what, no?
@pedroaguiaromundo No, the oil cap wire is to prevent the cap from working it's way loose during a race. There is no pressure in the crankcase- it's vented to the atmosphere (or to the airbox on a lot of supermoto bikes).

@CR125MANIAC $15 is about right. They were only that cheap because cyclebuy bob sponsored it for the good of our race series.
