The men behind the logos don’t always get the publicity that their high-paid racers do. These men toil behind the scenes. These men don’t know the meaning of nine-to-five and would never be happy taking a vacation during the racing season. The motocross industry is forged by these men. They have dedicated countless hours, risked their finances, and based their lives on the premise of service to the sport of motocross.

The MXA staff decided to interview some of the mover-and-shakers of the motocross biz in an effort to share some of the wisdom, inspiration and experiences of the men behind the logos.

Since we build the engines in house, from all new OEM parts, we can choose any engine style and I was never really inspired by the case reed inducted, servo powervalved, CR250 engines from 2002-2007. The 2001 Honda CR250 engine was just a great all around 250 2 stroke power plant. And one thats good for just about everyone who twists a throttle.

Four strokes are here to stay and there is no arguing the fact that they are far easier to to ride. The power delivery is much more manageable which lets the rider go longer with less fatigue. Having said that, whenever you hear someone speaking about a bike they have just ridden for the first time, invariably you hear the reference to a 2 stroke motor. Statements like “it’s really snappy, it feels just like a 2 stroke”. Here’s a news flash, it can never respond like a 2 stroke.

Ever think about having the ultimate bike on the track? One that can be your personal works bike is only a phone call away from the guru's at Service Honda. The level of customizing is up to you and your budget and the level of trickness can be tweaked until it can become truly, a unique one-of-a-kind bike. And one you'll enjoy for years to come and our competition will fear everytime they see you pull up.

Why customize a brand new bike?

Service Honda has been providing brand new 2 strokes for years, building off years of time tested processes and innovation. Our customers has shown us that getting a bike all set up "Your Way" from Service Honda not only saves you the time, but will provide much more enjoyment on the track or trail. Think about it like this: When you buy your new bike in our showroom, the accessory department is there to help you choose, look at or drool over all the trick stuff out there to make your bike unique to you. It could be a special bend of bars, particular tires or your personal suspension settings. Our guys behind the counter can help you make the best choices. This is no different when you order you bike online through us. Our guys will help you just as if you were in our showroom.

You know what we mean: Think about your suspension. With a production bike, you will tune it, you will tweak it and spend time, laps and hours playing around with it to make it work and feel correct. The stock settings are always defined and set up for the "average rider". We don't think you are average. After all, you are buying one of the most sought after dirt bikes on the planet. If you have your suspension set up at the time of purchase, it's going to be easier to ride, and a heck of a lot more fun come the first time you hammer though a whooped out straight or launch some big air or rail a rutted berm. With a stock bike, don't get me wrong, it will work great and you'll have a blast. But having your new bike detailed and dialed in exactly like you would have made it several months later anyway, will get up to speed with more comfort and confidence the first time you throw your leg over the seat.

All of the little details that make the difference between having a good time and a great time are just a matter of meeting with our factory sales staff. Our guys know their stuff and yours. We can help you pick out the exact items and suggest the optimum performance package to suit your needs, riding style, skill level, and budget.
