  • REAL TALK with Rocket Ralph and Midwest MX
    It’s quarantine time and we can’t get out to ride or create videos so while scratching my head thinking what to do with old footage to maintain my Tuesday 7pm schedule, I came up with an idea, rang MidWestMx and asked if he’d be up for a podcast style video.
    He agreed and we spent over and hour talking crap over some raw footage.
    Here it is hope you enjoy, if you did please drop a comment and let me know.
    Even if you don’t like still drop a comment and give me your thoughts on this up of content.

    I'm saving up right now $500 every two weeks to go buy a brand new 300tpi.. hopefully an xc-w 300 tpi haha either that or the husqvarna te 300i.. depends on which gives me the better deal haha because the husky comes with some upgrades compared to the ktms but I love both haha

    Barkbusters is actually a brand (Australian I think) of handguards, but nowadays it's used more or less as a synonym for wraparound handguards.

    • @ROCKETRALPH
      @ROCKETRALPH  4 роки тому +1

      Ahhh I never knew that 🙈 I always wondered where that term had come from 😂 I just thought it was an American term for hand guards because that what I always hear in the American videos 🙈

    first of all, great way to watch vids! Loving the style seriously! good to hear you guys talk like legends and drive like me., feel right at home haha .... On the 300 thing.. I remember there being convertion kits from 250 too 300.. but not sure if they excist for the tpi's though.. could ask your ktm dealer?

    • @ROCKETRALPH
      @ROCKETRALPH  4 роки тому +1

      kingjoop thanks dude, We weren’t sure how this style would be received but it seems to have gone well. Yeah I know for the older ones you could just change the cylinder and piston. Not sure it’s it’s that simple now with the fuel injection. I would rather sell the 250 and get a 300 tho just so the resale isn’t affected. I’m going to try sprockets first because I really don’t want to part with this bike 😂

    • @kingjoop
      @kingjoop 4 роки тому +1

      @@ROCKETRALPH yeah.. same thoughts here on the 300 conversation.. heard you talking about adjusting the suspention too, better wait with that when you decided to get a 300 or not... I did a suspention upgrade to my weight and it cost me 800 bucks.. so would be a waist if you do that and then get a 300 hehehe... but yeah.. loved the vid hearing you 2 bitch and laugh.. my favo.. only thing that could top that is live comms while riding and the option to record that... haha

    • @ROCKETRALPH
      @ROCKETRALPH  4 роки тому

      kingjoop yeah it’s a lot of money to get the suspension done, that’s why I’ve been waiting. I think I can sort it with sprockets it just that 2nd gear low down doesn’t pull like I want and I’ve heard of a few people going to 12/50 to sort this. Haha yeah I have been on to Midwest about getting Sena’s I already have one for the road bike but I can convince him too that would be a great laugh😂 not only for the vids but for us while we are riding. Me and my road biking mates found that it completely changed the whole riding experience being able to talk and rip the piss out of each other while riding 😂😂

    • @ROCKETRALPH
      @ROCKETRALPH  4 роки тому +1

      Yeah they can be a pain in the ass to find neutral 🙈 how often does the gear oil get changed? I’ve read a lot that people use another oil other than motrex and find the gears nicer and the clutch drags less.
