For Supercross, he likes the power to be strong off the bottom, but he's actually pretty easy as far as setup goes. Suspensionwise, he likes it set up a little bit stiffer, because he's big. He likes the handlebar a little bit taller for when he's on the pegs, but everything else is pretty easy. There's nothing on the bike that you can't buy." ';, cycle n e _ s • APRIL 11, 2001 , 89
