// 2025 SEASON \\

In the next couple months I will build out 2025 V4 and post it in this thread.

Until then I was able to go to Chuckwalla to get 2025 underway, 6 days straight on track. Hudson Valley Motorcycles who I get my bikes from, has Garage Ocho - an amazing built out garage / clubhouse at Chuckwalla and it's the best wintertime riding situation there is. For those who do not know, HVMC is a family dealer that has been around since the 60s run by the Alexander family. Ritchie Alexander is AMA SS champion, currently running Rahal Racing program + Corey Alexander is MA SSTK champion, currently racing for Rahal in SS. I went out the first season they had the garage, before it was built out and that was 3 years ago. Weather was great, no wind issues and perfect temps. I rode a stock 2020 V4S most the time but I got 5 or 6 sessions on a stock 2025 V4S. 2020 had dunlop slicks (hard) + 2025 had oem pirellis. New bike feels like an all new platform, completely different chassis feeling - it's a race bike. The engine is FAST, tank // seat is big difference, brakes are very good. I didnt mess with settings really on either bike, turned to Race setting on both and on 25 chose the B suspension settings cause A felt quite stiff, 20 was race shift pattern, 25 was std. I will post a video below of the 25, was not 100% comfortable on the track yet and was not trying to wring out and wad up brand new bike that was not mine. Track is super fun fast + flowy - not a big bike track and in fact it takes some nuance to wrap your head around how to ride a big bike there. I had an amazing time and highly recommend anyone go out and ride there.

I will pick up the new bike in march some time, should be back on supermoto in march also. Hope you are all getting fired up for upcoming season.

That middle pic is poster worthy

Had a blast Kevin!! Thanks for the tow

Hell yeah, nice stuff. Only met Corey once but I know he's one of Pridmore's guys so I know he's gotta be a good dude. Their garage set ups are so cool there- Ocho, Simon, etc. Rode there first time in November- excited to go back. My '25 is being built now and I AM getting fired up. Looks like you are too. Sick suit, BTW.

Yeah man, good seeing you out there. Definitely fortunate for us to have chuckvalla so close to home.. crazy to see what effort you guys have to take to spend some days here!
