That was crazy to watch!
Why are starts not good with it?
What is wrong with the suspension?
I didn't know anyone raced on the Milestone Vet track; what organization and class was that?
For the starts, there is build in lag to the initial twist of the throttle to assist in getting started for the average user. The hesitation was hard to get used to for gate drops. So no clutch to adjust wheel spin, only throttle position.
Suspension is 4CS forks and were 100% stock and adjusted for someone 30 lbs lighter than me.
I met my buddy and his dad who was racing with calvetmx. It’s for vintage racing. They have a modern support class, which is all on the same gate no matter your skill level. Last time it was him and I racing for the lead, this time there was a few fast guys.
Also I think trans world racing on the vet for the lower skill levels.
The vet tracks are ideal for the Alta. I ride it on the main and it did fine but the big jumps and me on an Alta didn’t flow well. I’m sure I could have jumped all the jumps but between the suspension and how it handles in the air I chose not to “go big” haha
