    Pasha is the man behind the scenes putting up big money purses to get pros to race two strokes in Southern California. He bought 3 KTM 150cc two strokes and told 3 different engine builders to work their magic. Each bike has the same parameters. FMF exhaust, Guts seat cover, Flex handlebars, Dubya wheels, samae gearing ratios, Lectron carbs, Hoosier tires, and more. The only differences are the suspension and engine. It was an all out battle with Varner engines, Twisted Development, and Haseker engines to see who could build the ultimate KTM 150 Two Stroke. We had 5 MXA test riders ride the bikes and did some lap time challenges to settle the score once and for all. We showed you individual bike episodes and now its time to pick a winner.

    As a 150 owner (2023 Husky TE150… a little different), it’s awesome to see the potential these smaller cc bikes have on the MX track 🤘

    Gawd I love this kid! Josh, what an amazing addition to Motocross Action! I live vicariously through his racing stories, testing results and his great magazine articles that chronicle his racing events, and as always I'm amazed with the results he achieves in these top level events!
    he claims to be an extrovert...I say; "Right on Bro! keep it going, loving it".

    The Varner build was possibly effected due to suspension setup.
    The extra low end performance usually produce better lap times.

    Awesome to see 2T content! I was hoping to get more info on the engine internals. If all are using the same carb, VHM head, and exhaust what are the differences each tuner has done to the cylinder , crank etc.? how these mods effected the bikes differently on track. Lap time is not a useful metric ….
    Video just turned out to be lots of 2 stroke screaming and very little substance technically….

    Awesome video with a great concept but they really all should have had the same suspension if you’re going to rank the motors based on lap times. Either way Pasha is the man and it was rad to see some dudes who know how to ride a 125 mix it up

    Would have been cool if they all had the exact same suspension from the same company as well as letting the engine builders have more room to do what they want. Let them pick what exhaust, what head, what gear ratios they want. Really show what the engine builders are capable of.

    Most definitely appreciate all the work but its still not apples to apples is it! Either compare 3 different engines with one suspension set up or use one engine to test 3 different suspension set ups. After weeks of waiting we find there's less than a second between the three bikes, almost no mention of rideability and the fastest lap time comes from the bike with the broadest power and the least top-end. Shocker!
