Junior Mistakes and Misdamior things

Many people go to the race and dont realise that the two most important thing is you and your bike. Don't worry about the hot girl sitting in the stands and cheerin you on, but how you are going to do well in the race. Eating right and drinking a bunch of water. Ya everyone knows that... But I see many riders not taking care of there bikes when at the races. If you have a machanic fine, but when racing by yourself, who wants to ride a a shitty bike. Many people wash there bikes with the same filters they race with, then race right after the wash. Like think about it for a sec. I know you say you do that all the time and nothin happens. Well thats why your bike makes horrible noices and never, ever getts a holeshot jackass! And cleanness is always the most important. You know water leads to bad things and also dort in oil is bad also... So people take care of your bikes and realise that James Stewart and Ricky Charmichael always took very good care of there bikes, way before they where pro's.

Good tip Superman!
So, the sum up, ALWAYS replace your air filter after washing your bike.

couldnt agree more. running with a wet air filter is the worst thing you can do if you were looking to have performance.
