well the set up on my st seems to cope well with all types of surfaces ....clay.....dirt and astro so all i do is keep the same set up for clay and dirt ....handles brilliantly .....and then loosen the spring adjustment for astro and its perfect there .....so for me its taken a while to get it right ......
not a problem mate .....i dont mind talking to people that is interested and can take it all in......its all about trying to get the best from the cars and enjoying the sport.....and if you have any tips feal free to tell me as i could allways do with more things to do on it...... |

| i have had all manufactures and jest like rc cars there not all the same like people think .kawi manufactures all there own metal,like the cast on triple trees and in my opinion with all do respect to others i do not think the quality is there like a honda or other japanese bikes. my last five bikes have ben ktm.dirt is completely different then the road.i destroy bikes in a season or two.having surgery on acl and cartilage in my knee on tuesday doc says ill be racing rc for a few seasons.not totally a downer because know i have a hyper st to get some dirt in my system. |

blimey.......good luck with the op......you never know you might get the bug so much you wont go back to motocross...(somehow i dont think so).....but with me its just an early midlife crises at 39 and i have more enjoyment on the bike going though the countryside than i ever would in my car......and met some good friends through having the bike .....so we are all off to the isle of man tt this year for the full 2 weeks so got that to look forward to (guys holiday) while im there im sending my g/f and her friend off to italy for a well earnt holiday.....but have to say rc racing comes first over the bike ......never thought i would say that but im hooked .......

| i agree very addictive and super fun makes me smile like a kid.i have always jumped back and forth from bikes to rc my whole life.the isle of man is awesome. one of the best off road riders is from there his name is David Night. i may have his name spelled wrong but he is our grand national cross country champion.the guy is like 6.7feet tall he looks like hes ridding a mini bike,no one can beat him. good luck with your trip,your very lucky to be able to go, i have two kids and a wife.im lucky to be able to race.my wife is very understanding to my needs, shes a good girl.would not change a thing.maybe some day ill plan a trip with my family to the UK and you can show me that sweet farm track .hahaha |

| Has anybody taken your flat battery pack and put it on the top of your radio tray above your steering servo, I just used two zipties to hold it down, I have let to test it out but it fits nicely. Has anybody done this please tell me what you think. |
