The Service Honda digital ignition represents a huge leap forward for the CR500 engine. This ignition completely transforms the bike. The transformation is appearent as soon as you start the bike, turn the choke off and let the bike idle while you put your gear on… and the bike will not stall, and that is just the beginning of the improvements. Once your gear is on and you are riding the bike the next thing you notice is the improved throttle response and big increase in low end power. Throttle response on long technical down hills remains consistent through out the decent with the new system, a quick twist of the throttle produces instant power to easily clear an obstacle. The digital system uses 26 maps with a new map every 300 rpm compared to the old analog system that used only a few. The vast increase in the number of maps results in much smoother power delivery. The smooth power really improves traction vastly, even on a hard slick surface resulting in faster times and less rider fatigue. The power is so much smoother you can be fooled into thinking the new system makes less power, this is not the case the digital system actually makes a bit more power than the old analog system.

How to make a successful MX video…

In our industry receiving anywhere up to 10,000 views on an internet MX video cannot be frowned upon. However these kinds of views are defiantly not considered ‘viral’ and these kinds of views are probably not going to make you an internet mega star. But in a sport that has such a niche market across the globe it is almost unheard of to have a Viral MX vid that spreads like wildfire across the World Wide Web. There are those few exceptions however, for example if you happen to catch video footage of a certain Aussie mad man hitting the eject button on the lip of a Millville table top! But unless you just happen to have the camera rolling to catch something extraordinary, something with a 1 in a million chance of happening on film it is very unlikely that you are going to get massive views. So this raises the question, how do you go about making a viral Motocross video?  With an early film nudging 1 million views and their best effort so far this year already at 500,000 views Toofast Films are in the mood to try and find that magic recipe for online success…  So what are their ingredients you ask ?

These engines are the result of a work that lasted more than 24 months, they were completely designed by Beta and represent a new benchmark in terms of technology, layout and performance of a 2?stroke Enduro engine. Available in 250cc and 300cc displacements, they are manufactured, assembled and tested in house, to ensure their quality and performance. Lightweight and equipped with the latest generation of technical solutions, they are characterized by very smooth and linear power delivery as well as a reference top power.
