hollleeeessshhhoooooooootttttt !!! Roczens going to kill it
Yes willy106 Rok should win a title this year. But I believe the big news is that Dungy appearsto have the 450 tracking 90% straight in the bumps. But maybe he isn't pushing that hard yet! Keep working hard.
Great riding & love The Smiths@2:46
That Fox gear is sick! And what's with the Dunge ditchin' his Leatt?
new front fenders and number plates on their bikes?
I think it sucks that they wouldn't let Malcolm on the KTM track bcoz Dungey was on. Also I wouldnt ride a bike with WP suspension after I found out what the meaning of WP was. Not hating just saying.Its gonna be weird watching malcolm ride that thing on WP's.
Ditzy1 get over yourself not everybody is tring to be some kind of politicaly correct Freek like most of America today. WP, White Power its a beautiful thing fool.....
dgizz1 your a moron dude... WP = White Power = White Brothers as in Tom White and his brother from back in the day when 2 strokes ruled the land..... but since your were a diaper pooping child back then if even born at all... i can see why you are so stupid.
Without a doubt this is the biggest year for team pumpkin in the USA. Honestly can't wait to see Roczen entertain both indoors and out. If Dungey can pull off a championship this year than Roger Decoster should start manufactuing his own line of bikes. Everywhere he goes, championships follow. Imagine if Decoster was the team manager for Stewar
t. I wonder what Decoster earns annually? Does WP actually stand for "White Power"?
I wonder what the lap time difference between RD and KR is?
If im not wrong... WP stands for : Work Performance Suspension
Ya your wrong man, the guy up top had it right, WP was created by two Austrian brothers, last name White.
Nah man i got it... WP : Wim Peters founder of WP... crashed hard in the early 1975, catch up the info in this link... http://www.wpsuspension.co.uk/history.php
wow. these guys look solid. Roczen will be a title contender forsure, as long as he stays off the ground. Dungey, well he looks absolutely solid. I know this a test rack that he rides 5,6,7 times a week, but wow. Great improvement from that first video we saw a few months ago. Idk though, RV2 is a machine. Great season is store forsure.
Matty - great video but ruined by the "music".
I know you want to be artistic and all but the guys who watch moto also want to HEAR moto. We want to hear when and where they get on the gas. We want to hear as they go through the whoops. You can still put some music in the slow motion parts because the audio's not legit when it's slowed down, but otherwise - MOTOCROSS IS THE MUSIC!!!
StanGale you hit the nail on the head there..... I want to hear when they are on and off the throttle!
RD is looking smooth, It's starting to come together.
Dungeys bike looks like its starting to work. It was hard to tell in this video. No good shots of whoops and the turns were bowled up so high and camera so low. I couldn't tell if Dungey got the front end push solved in the corners or not.
Hi Guys,
this is the up to date link for WP Group:

#1 its really exciting to see Dungey looking comfortable on the KTM
#2 Roczen should be a major title threat
#3 those bikes in combo with Fox gear look amazing
Bring on A1 already I need Moto action!!!!!
@DGizzy , you are an idiot. The "White Power" refers to the two guys who built the companies LAST NAME.. You are a moron. So Malcoln shouldnt have any trouble riding on it right?? And can you blame KTM for not letting Baby Stewie on the track with Dungey, they want to keep thier top rider healthy, not get him hurt before the season even starts.
No bd200, YOU are the idiot!! A video with 2 guys riding KTM's and you use it as an opportunity to bash on the Stewart name. You are such a one track mind p--sy!! You need serious mental and emotional help mister!! Go away would you?? Thanks!!
DIDO on the looking amazing! The whole combo with the fox gear and red bull helmets look wic-nar-some! Can't wait for A1

REF-man........why are you so offended by bd200's joke? After all the funniest jokes have a bit of truth in them. You must be a Stewart fan. And also, whoever turned a suspension company's name into a race issue is the idiot......
@Retardcross--some guys just dont get it, they are the Stewtards.. But if I had a factory rider, there is no way ANY rider like that would be on a practice track with my rider, no matter what his last name is. You have to do everything you can to keep the top guys healthy.
@ the poster who turned a suspension tuners name into the race issue was DGIZZY, practicly everything he types has race involved.
What exactly is it that i don't get bd200?? HUH?? Ok, so let your star rider ride only by himself during preparation, how stupid and unproductive is that?? Ride alone and then get to the gate at A1 and oh shit, you mean there is going to be other guys on the track with me?? Stupid logic man.....and i am not a Stewart fan, or a Stew**** as you put it, it's just a fact that you always find a way to bust on the Stewarts and it gets old....so predictable with you. At least you have that retardcross guy in your corner, that should make you feel good......not!!
REF-man.......at least you have the "Stewtards" in your corner. You need to settle down twinkle toes ;)
Right from the beginning, the springs that were used on WP shock absorbers were white, which became the typical WP colour. There’s a nice anecdote to the circumstances that led to the "choice" that was made for this colour. In the beginning the springs were coated by a company that produced hospital beds and white was the only possible colour for them (!). Although, nowadays the coating is done by special spring coating companies, the WP shock absorbers can still easily be recognised by the white springs. The white springs also introduced the original brand name of "White Power" which we are not using actively in the market anymore since 1991.
Is my 6 year old Dell laptop speakers on the fritz or did I hear a two stroke in the vid?
@Ref-man, my comment had nothing to do woth Malcoln or any Stewie for that matter, I wouldnt let any in-expeirienced guy on a small track like that with my star rider. If you would, great. I am sure you are more expierienced and know more than Roger Decoster, since he is new to the sport. I would say Roger knows what he is doing and he made that call, so you really should be questioning him. Since you are so bright. And your comment that said "Oh, sh!t, there are other guys on the track " was just ignorant on your part, we are talking about a former supercross and National champ, I think he knows whats going on. It seems Roger kinda may know what he is doing, in case he needs advice give him your numberREF-man.
@bd200, well once again you say something and then pretty much deny saying it. How in the hell can you say your comment had "nothing to do with Malcolm or any Stewie for that matter"?? Really?? So who exactly were you talking about when you said this....." And can you blame KTM for not letting Baby Stewie on the track with Dungey, they want to keep thier top rider healthy, not get him hurt before the season even starts." According to you that statement was not about Malcolm or any other Stewart........dude, you are an ignorant fool!! Get help!! @retard...........STFU......i'd rather have one Stew**** in my corner than an army of "you"........sweetie;)~
Keep on suckin that black c*** REF-man.
REF-man seems to have a real chip on his shoulder over nothing. No point in arguing with him...it's like arguing with a 5 year old. You can't win an argument with a 5 year old when there is no logic involved on their side and they just insist they are right with no thought involved, or logical rationale bringing them to their conclusion.
bd200's original comment seemed reasonable enough and not worthy of a rant and it certainly had nothing to do with race. Making the WP thing in to a race thing was just stupid on dgizzy1's part.
Actually dgizzy1 making it into a race thing was not necessarily stupid, just ignorant. And for those that don't seem to know the difference between those two words...ignorant does not mean stupid....it just means you didn't know or weren't aware of something.
P.S. Malcolm's not even on the KTM team. He's on a KTM support team. Probably had more to do with that than anything else.
You guys must not have listened to Nathan Ramsey talk about this during the PulpMx show back on November 21st. Ramsey said nobody is allowed on the track when Dungey is testing special parts or something like that (paraphrasing of course). That includes other guys from the factory team. So it has nothing to do with Stewart but the top guy gets some special treatment based on the testing is going on.
Jeez you guys make mountains out of mole hills at times.
Clearly Malcolm isn't allowed on the track because of the true meaning of WP suspension. I can't believe that many people didn't know/still don't know what WP meant.
HAHAHAHAHA, come say that to my face you "racist" p**sy retardcross, didn't think so!!!! "oh, wait, i can't call you that can i? P.O.S.!! @toocoolracing, wow what an intelligent analysis of things...u must b reeeeeeel smart!! "And the peanut gallery gives the win to.........bd200"!! LOL LMFAO ROFL!!!
I usually try to avoid stupid internet squabbles on this site but this is just too funny. Internet tough guy alert, better go hide under my blankets. And I'm not a racist to be honest, it fit the context it was being used in whether it was appropriate or not (not). You can blow me instead if it makes you feel any better.
i dont know why i am thinking this, but i am picturing a bunch of fat 14 year old squids thats have xr80s and hit 5 foot doubles at best and are eating greasy pizza and argueing at each other through the keyboard back and forth. LOL!
Why use the stupid video filters, slow motion, and really lame music on the videos? Man, it just blows me away that RacerX will put up a video using top riders names to draw attention to some really lame BS indy music that was made by a 12 year old nephew or some other producer wanna be. Just show us the riders and the bikes and leave the video editing tricks to Spielberg and the crappy music to Justin Beiber. We come her for MOTO, not music and certainly not crappy video editing filters.
OK. Done ranting....Dungey looks much more comfortable on that bike now than he did at the MEC. It is gonna be a great season if we can keep Stewart from injuring the top riders.
Nah...i'd rather KICK YOUR ASS retardcross!!!! Much more enjoyable!!!! @redneckrider, so you think that anytime a "top rider" gets hurt it's because of Stewart huh?? Jackass!
Ktm is gonna have a awesome year for sure. im cheering for roczen and musquin to win both coast if they put them on opposite coasts. dungey has a good chance at the 450 title. i believe that its gonna RV VS RD. james and chad will win races but i think the battle will be between these 2. james is back on a yamaha :P and chad hopefully can recover from his foot injury and his big wreck at millville. But come A1 im cheering for RV
GEEEZ!....I asked one question about what the acronym "WP" stood for and a couple of dudes just rip into each other. Sorry, won't ask again!
ok guys I worked at a KTM dealership for 3 years and now I work for KTM in Ohio, and WP stands for White Power Suspension. Nothing racist guys. And for obvious reasons they shortened it to WP so there would not be any kind of linking to them being racist.
And I also would like to know why Dungey is not wearing the Leatt brace. I have asked several people with the company that have ties to the race team and none of them have given me an answer. So if anybody has a logical and legit reason, or where to find, I would like to know. Thanks all!!!
The RD's already have this bike dialed in from that of a month ago. KTM will visit the top of the box many times in 2012.
he's not wearing the leatt because he' prolly not pushin as hard as he would in a race. he looke better without it anyways
ref man. james hurt alot of people this last supercross season if you remember. he is a accident waiting to happen
