Or fall! I doubt it pops up to the top like a board! :drowninga:

Such beautiful scenery all around, now watch me destroy it and your peaceful vacation while riding my noisy dirt bike through it.

:headscratch: Guess you don't like loud cars on scenic highways or rural racetracks either.

Just wait until he does a One Handed Superman Tail Grab with a Twist off the top of a 20' wave!! :hail:

You mean a highway that's meant to have cars driven on them or racetracks that are built for race cars? :headscratch: Love them

All those highways have ruined nature far more than any off road vehicle ever could.

How many runs do you think he gets before the salt water eats the bike? I can't imagine it lasts long even if they give it a fresh water bath after.

I think KTM takes pretty good care of Robbie. :D

Top ends on the 2-strokes are cheap and quick, all the chassis is powdercoated and the aluminum components are clear coated so it's probably not that bad. The sand cast head and barrel may be the exception.

The air intakes are located left and right in the lower rear portion of the seat and rear number plate junction. From my experience they are pretty water tight, at least in Oregon's winter woods riding.

Waaaaay water tight as you know. I've been tank deep a whole bunch of times and NO stalling, not once.

Sick video and riding for sure. He had some pretty good falls getting prepped for this vid.
You can tell, they couldn't time the pipeline just right. I can't even imagine how hard this must be to pull off. such talent....the bar just keeps gettin set higher...and higher...

We were talking about this on Saturday.

He had air bags that he would deploy if he knew that he was going down. That prevented the bike from hitting the ocean floor.

He crashed/wiped out 30 times.

They also picked the 250 2-Stroke purely because of how easy it was to rebuild. It had enough power and was way easier to rebuild than a 450 4-stroke.

Overall I think it was absolutely awesome. Robbie is always pushing the envelope!

I figured they had some sort of life vest system for the bike as crashes are inevitable filming in those conditions. Robbie had to be having a great time!

The 2-stroke besides being cheaper and less sensitive to water is 15 lbs. lighter and if it was a 250SX it pulls harder than the 450SX. The newer 250SX's are scary fast in a good way. :D

KTM always had fast bikes. I remember their 250 2-strokes being much faster than a YZ or CR.
