More like this. Really simplified the understanding of this critical part for a newer rider. Thanks

This definitely needs to be a regular series. Lots of good insight to aftermarket products that provide more options for weight reduction and performance increase!

As a former b class rider who hasn’t rode in over 3 years due to health issues still love these videos! Hope to be back it someday when health allows. Once i got on big bikes and started picking up the speed and being a more lightweight rider, aftermarket triple clamps were not always a must but could definitely tell a difference.

Would like to see handlebars. Twin wall vs fat bar pros and cons from your experiences

Awesome video Jeff, I'm 25 and never raced motocross or had a dirtbike as a kid growing up and I wish like hell I would have...I grew up in a family of professional Ice hockey players, so growing up I was a hockey player and golfer in the offseason....but I've always loved MX/SX and just never got into the sport growing up looking in from the outside. Your story of never giving up and making it up into the pro nationals are a big reason why I'm hooked and getting into motocross this summer when I get out of the military...I'm looking at getting a 250 4 stroke and just really excited for the journey of learning proper techniques, getting better and faster overall...I can't wait! I think these videos where you dive into the technical stuff on the bikes will be really badass and will only help me out in the future as I'm looking to get better....along with others out there who are trying to make a living in the sport one day. Congrats on all your success thus far, and good luck this season my man! I'm really excited for when the Pro National outdoor series comes out to SoCal! I'll definitely be there.

I agree 100%. I'm glad you posted this. I have been preaching it since I upgraded my bike this year. I added the factory Husky clamps to my TC 250, some titanium, and a torque wrench. I'll tell you what. My front end has never felt so calm. It's crazy. Love the tech talk. Keep it up!!

[Jacob_Walterreit]

Absolutely would like to see more tech videos of this caliber. I cannot understate how well everything flowed together from start to finish. Good mix of basic info with vital "higher" technical points and suspension theory. Saying what you did about bringing a product on board means a lot, it's hard to trust what most channels are saying about products who's company they are indebted to. Fact is, it's on us as a community to know who is who, who's bs and who's not and hearing what you said is definitely a big deal. Really enjoy the honesty, transparency, knowledge, and self made Michigan badassery. 👊✊✊🤘🤘

Great video Jeff. I love my Luxon clamps and as an engineer myself I really respect Billy’s approach to developing his products. Luxon is doing it the right way !

Would love to see a video on frame mounts, especially in regards to the new chassis. Enjoyed this video and your presentation 👍🏻

[frankcraymerdds]

One of the best mods I have done was change the Triple Clamps and offset on some bikes. They went from pushing in the corner entry to tracking where I aimed them. I just purchased the Bar Mounts from Luxon, well made for sure.

I just started watching you yesterday but you're already my favorite motocross youtuber also more of the tech talk its great to hear from somebody with a pretty good idea of what is actually helping explain these terms so I can decide whether or not these are worthwhile upgrades, keep up the great work.

[bilboswaggens]

As someone who races mx and super moto, I can confirm the absolute difference triples make in the handle of a bike. Specifically the turn in and chop of the front end

[jaydalton]

Sir, the frame is slightly crooked but I'm here for the tech tip action.

[woodysrockspyro]

I'm a decent 40 year old rider.
Love my xrtrigs. They don't make me faster but they make things smoother. You CAN tell. Fatigue is real.

[MrThorney]

Love to see a tech talk with jwalk about wheels for sure

[staninokla]

Very helpful. Hope you continue doing these videos

[dirtbikeparadise]

could you do a vid on engine components and stuff like head porting and ecu's? im in the process of rebuilding my bike top to bottom and i did some mods that im not to sure of but keep hearing good things about them from people, great vid!!!! definitely need more of this level of content !!

[mountainmonkey]

If you are an average rider there isn't a shortcut to be miraculously faster. Good technique and lots of seat time is your best option....and it's free!!! Don't waste money on parts thinking it's going to give you massive gains. If you have money to burn, then sure, you can make your bike LOOK cool....look pro go slow😂😂😂😂

[huntercoleman]

Dude I remember you replied to my comment like 2 years ago about this exact video😂🤦🏻 nah I’m glad it’s here tho I’m on my rod to Loretta this year

[nicktobin]

Loved the vid, maybe next Tech Talk with J Walk you could bring a guest or like someone from the company to help explain?
