  1. I understand they are making OEM’s which I still yet fail to understand why we race “OEM’s” in a pro series. The only reason I say this is because IRL all the factory bikes are gonna have enough power to compete with each other nobody loses a race because there bike isn’t got enough power to keep up. I do however like the bikes are different and not the same all around, however I think it’d be a good idea to at least think about making it to where every bike has the same horsepower and weight. (Within their own class) with still keeping the suspension different and handling and the way the bikes feel and rpm ranges and everything different. Along with gearing etc. I think this would give us the ability to ride whatever bike we want or feel comfortable on and there will be more variety. I mean you can’t race a Suzuki 250 because it doesn’t have enough power to keep up. There’s some lines some bikes will barely hit and others with jump like it’s nothing, just based on what their power and weight is. I just think that’s something we shouldn’t have to be worrying about.

  2. I loved the stability of the bikes and the control of the rear slide. Really can have some fun with it when you drift around an entire corner perfectly. The decrease in power from the traction changes was initially a deterrent but with future tracks being scaled or current tracks being rescaled it will be a great update

  3. This is a sick update and I think the bikes have never felt better. I've really disliked how the bikes have felt the last little while. Like, sure they were fast, they were fun. But they weren't realistic, which for MxBikes, which is supposed to be a simulator, we should strive for realism. And I think this update is really on the right track and is gonna propel the game forward. Next the game needs a proper way to seat bounce.

  4. Been following this game on a couple channels (yours & reaperdoc’s) for a few years now. Dk if or when I’ll buy a new computer & the game but over these years I’ve often wondered why rear tire control/steering wasn’t a feature in MX Bikes. Awesome the oem team figured out a way to implement it 🤘🏼

  5. I don't mind new bikes but I think it silly to make them that much slower…
    It's ''deletes'' all the awesome content we already have. It makes it unrideable… I think it's really not right direction to take…
    Also, making the bikes better for the top 1 % of players is not the best thing to do also, the majority of player are casual and what something better then MVsA or comparable to SIM… As much as I like racing and pros, I think it is to the track creators to make the tracks hard, not the bikes to be hard to ride…
    I Considere my self in the top 1% BTW…
    So, yeah! I don't like where we are going with this!
    This is my opinion.

  6. Dude i was literally thinking today: when are new bikes coming😂😂😂
    Btw well explained with the traction physics, i feel the same, the traction is either 100% or 0%

  7. my impression is the bike handles bumps SO much better…the rear end is good and rewarding for proper riding and throttle control. Riding the yamaha 250 is a lot of fun. Previous OEMs I really didn't ever enjoy as it always felt like I was on a bucking bull.

  8. I personally like these bikes a lot. Front end is way better then it’s ever been ( I only have 350 hours in this game) I really like that you can charge the ruts or berms on outdoors without the fear of tucking the front end. The rear needs a bit of work though. I do like your suggestion at the end of the video of adding a bit more traction so the middle and the sides of the tire feel a bit more comparable. One thing that needs to also be addressed is the 250 Yamaha bogs in 3-4 gear imo. I lengthened out the gears and it seamed to help some. I own that exact bike irl and 3rd and 4th gear don’t feel anything like these new previews do. I have about 4 hours on the bikes. I’m going to play some more today with them and get some final thoughts on the bikes though. They have been good fun so far

  9. I saw people complaining about the new bikes, specifically the 450s for supercross because they're "too slow". I suck at supercross, and I never ride 450s at all but even i was able to get on and ride the sx track properly with them. You just cant hit all the stupid lines now like quads that were impossible IRL. I think these bikes are much better

  10. ive been digging these bikes in supercross. I hope the tracks next year are more like anaheim 1 and don't have crazy pre rutted corners to allow us to use the back end to our advantage and slide in and drop the corner.

  11. The bikes are slower, but it feels much more realistic. you can steer with the rear and rotate easier you just cant carry as much speed. you kinda have to ride the tire more than the bike now.

  12. Tried these out last night! Opinion from a 250's novice player. Yamaha felt great and very solid straight out of the box. Biggest standout was the Kawasaki 250 feeling very 'twitchy' maybe its because it is something brand new. But I could barely drive it in a straight line.

  13. I find it funny they still aren’t making the yz one of the best when clearly IRL they are the best if not top 2 manufacturers. The games gonna go to shit if they don’t fix the gyro and amount of slip these have. Alotttt of people will go back to current oems if this is how they’ll come.

  14. I really like the bikes myself. I will also say, I really enjoy how you approach criticizing these mods. You’re not all negative about the areas you don’t like. You try to see a positive in it. Well done review Lynds

  15. I was actually pretty harsh on these at first, but after putting the 100 tires on and easing on the throttle a bit on turns these things actually rip, i do think speed needs to be up’d just a smidge on 450’s but i feel i actually rip around tough tracks faster than before and i almost dont even want to use the old oems now lol.

  16. Haven't tried them yet, but looks like the sliding is an excellent thing. IRL, when I ride my kx450, you need to be able to steer with the back sometimes. Love how it seems you can almost hairpin the corners.
