DV8’S CORNER
BY: DAVE
CASELLA
DIRECTOR OF MX BRANDS
Welcome to the CSG update. We have the usual mayhem going on here. We
are fresh off the Indianapolis Dealer Trade Show. The show was a little different
this year. The new schedule with the show ending Sunday instead of Monday
was better, and not having it be 5 degrees outside all week was great.
The CSG brands really made the most
of the week. DVS mad men Dano
and Erik were on hand all weekend to help debut the
K-Dub MSR/DVS Fourteen Collection. The interest in
the Fourteen collection was phenomenal and with this
being a limited offering I would order it now while you
can get it...you have been warned! The new Spring
Scan colorways that K-Dub, Wey and JG have been
wearing were on showcase in the MSR booth also
along with MSR’s new Metal Mulisha “Scope” boot
that drew allot of attention. The Mulisha line continues The CSG staff was in full force
to kill it for MSR.
at the 2011 Indy Show
Answer unleashed the Skullcandy gear & the new JS
collection “purple haze gear” at the show, both of which
were the talk of the booth. The Answer/Skullcandy
relationship is really picking up steam and it’s really
awesome to see Answer pushing the boundaries. The
SKDY/Answer relationship extend past the gear, so get
ready for some really cool tie ins between the two as we
move forward.
The Skullcandy/Answer
Partnership was a huge hit
Pro Taper debuted their new black colorway in the RS
sprockets. They also had their new 2.0 bar pads and
the Skullcandy grips and pads. PT continues to lead the
hard parts industry in innovation and creativeness.
Overall the show was a success for CSG as interest in
the brands are at an all time high. I have to really thank
the whole crew for putting in the extra effort all week.
The buzz the CSG brands have right now make all the
additional work well worth it.
Within 24 hours of unpacking the trade show crates, we
reloaded up everything in the CSG Vans to head off to
The K-Dub collection goes
the Oak Hill Amateur National. Answer, MSR and Pro
live to rave reviews
Taper are proud to return as title sponsors for the 35th
Annual GNC International Motocross Finals at Oak Hill Raceway. The event is set to begin on
March 15th and run through March 20th, just up the road from the Tucker Rocky Corporate
Headquarters in Fort Worth, TX. You may even see TR’s head honcho Steve Johnson
cruising the pits at Oak Hill, as he may or may not (I’m not telling) jump the fence that divides
his property from the track! We sent Andy “Bakes” Bakken off this week to drive out there and
if you want some good laughs make sure you follow his journey there and back on twitter.
Hope all of you are watching the SX races. This is turning out to be one of the most exciting
seasons in a long, long time. You have to give it up to JS who put in one hell of an effort in
Daytona. The dude is an unreal rider, and remounting after a crash like that and then working
his way into the top 10 to save championship points was just crazy. Even RC and Emig
couldn’t believe what they were witnessing as they called the race. Also make sure you grab
the April edition of TWMX. There is a “Riding Tips” section with Nick Wey and also some
great photography of K-Dub riding out at McGrath’s private ranch. The shots were so good
it earned Windham the poster for the month also.

DIDDY’S DIARY
Well it’s crazy to think we are at the half
way point in the 2011 SX series and
what a series it has been so far. We have
seen four different winners and up until
the disaster that happened at Daytona a
pretty close points battle. We haven’t seen racing this
good in years. And to make it even better most of it can
all be seen live on Speed or CBS each weekend. Not a
bad time to be in if you’re a fan of SX.
What’s even crazier to believe is that James Stewart
as of last weekend is 26 points back of first. He has
been in this situation before. Remember in 2009 he
spotted everyone about twenty points right from the
start. So it’s not like this is anything new to him. Like his
butt patch said in Indianapolis ‘it ain’t over yet”. That’s
why they go racing each weekend.
Win or lose this series, the riding that James has
displayed can only be described as amazing. In what
other sport is there one athlete that is the only one that is
able to do or attempt things week after week? Whether
it was those quad sections at A2 or the wall jump at
Daytona, he is able to see
and put together sections
that no other professional
in our sport is even willing
to attempt and yet JS will
do it every lap in a twenty
lap main. However with that
ability comes a price and
he has paid that price with
valuable points throughout
this series. So love him or
hate him, for that you have
to respect him!
CSG BI-WEEKLY UPDATE 03.16.11
BY: ROGER
LARSEN
PRO ATHLETE MANAGER
In an incredibly stacked
2011
series,
Kevin
Windham
continues
to struggle to find that
second a lap he has
been looking for all year.
Always the crowd favorite
in any city the series
goes. He does however
always seem to win over
the crowd with his huge
transfer jumps, in the dark
no less, during opening
ceremonies. I think I have
said this before but if you
have yet to go to a race this year that is reason enough
right there. Photos and the random you tubes clips just
don’t do it justice.
Nick Wey finally put in the ride he has been looking for.
With a handful of finishes just outside the top ten he
leaves Indy with an eight-place. NYK has found himself
on a great team and a great bike. Also he has recently
teamed up with long time friend and trainer Randy
Lawrence. Expect to see some more strong finishes
out of Nick these next few rounds.
Also don’t forget MSR’s
newest rider Josh Grant
is still recovering from knee
surgery after his crash at
round two in Phoenix. He
is heeling up fine and eager
to get back to racing. He
is expected to be back for
the outdoors.
That’s about all I have
for now. See you in
Jacksonville!

RANDY
VALADE
MARKETING MANAGER
Wow! What a crazy last few weeks here for the
MSR crew. We recently returned from the Indy
sales meeting, Atlanta and Daytona SX has
come and gone and we are finishing up the entire
2012 line. This week’s installment will bring you
info on the events above along with other useful
knowledge about the MSR brand.
INDY DEALER EXPO
First off let’s start with the Indy Trade show. This is always a
great event to showcase our new spring products. This year as
most of you already know, MSR is introducing 2 new colors of
the NXT Scan, which are called Burst and Fusion. In addition to
those MSR has joined forces with DVS to introduce the K-Dub
collection, which will consist of 2 shoes, 2 hats and a small line
of casual apparel. We had the DVS crew (Dano and Erik) on
hand to answer any questions and give the dealers a better
understanding of DVS. Lastly, we are introducing the new MSR/
MM Scope boot that received a ton of compliments at the show.
All of these products are just weeks away from shipping and we
are really advertising these to get everyone excited about these
great products. Check out the video below for an in depth look at
all the new products.
Nick Wey is starting to get his flow going. He is just on the
brink of breaking into that top 10 and it’s only a matter of time till
he does. Wey has been dealing with some poor starts but has
been putting a bunch of time into those these past few weeks. I
predict he is top 10 this weekend! Here is a photo of Wey from
the Daytona Speedway.
RACING NEWS
In racing news, Kevin Windham has been recouping from his big
Houston crash the last couple weeks. I spoke with K-dub after
Daytona and he tells me everything is starting to feel good again.
He had been nursing a bruised shoulder and wrist the last few
races and is finally feeling normal again. Look for Kevin to be back
in the mix come Indy. I have attached a few photos of Windham
from Daytona as well as a link to others.
MSR’s Josh Grant as many of you know has had knee surgery.
The surgery went well and he is full steam ahead on returning
for the outdoor season. Stay tuned for a video featuring Josh on
his comeback.

TALKING ABOUT TAKING THINGS MAINSTREAM...
MSR supplied ESPN with photos of the K-Dub collection
and they ran a great post on it. Make sure to check it out:
MSR’s new ad campaign has been going over very well with the magazine guys. We went with
a dark background that really makes the gear standout on the page along with how each rider
affects the brand. MSR, “One Brand Fits All”. I have attached the first two ads and there will be
another two hitting the news stands soon.
OTHER RACING NEWS
Amateur racing is back for the 2011
season. This week there are two races
that the kids could choose from. Mill
Creek is one of the races running this
week and from the sounds of it, the
rain has not stopped. The Freestone
national is the other national taking
place in Texas and looks like it has
turned out to be a great event.
Next week the 35th Annual Oak
Hill National will get underway and
MSR is one of the title sponsors. If
you are in the area be sure to stop
by and check out all the events and
new apparel that will be taking place
throughout the week. Our amateur
athlete manager, Andy Bakken is on
hand to assist all our riders and make
sure that everyone has a great time.
That’s it for me this week. Make sure you stay up to date on all the MSR happenings by following us on twitter at twitter.com/msrmx and

SIX NINE SUMMARY
After quite a long break from the world of
CSG and the domain of MSR Off-Road, we
have a few events as of late to get you all
caught up and feeling warm & fuzzy inside.
DUVAL TOPS HARE SCRAMBLE PODIUM
With the start of the
GNCC series a mere 3
weeks away, the MSR
Am Pro Yamaha boys
hit the opening round
of the Eastern AMA
Hare Scramble series.
Grabbing a 4th place
start and keeping a solid
pace, Thad would be
swapping positions within the top 4 spots and waiting patiently for
the right time to strike. At just over the 2 hour mark, the amateur
riders are pulled off and Thad knew that would mean clear sailing
out front with no lappers. Wanting to get to the lead and in his own
words, Thad “pinned it”, got to the lead, took some deep breathes
and held on to take the checkers by more than 30 seconds over
2nd position.
BORICH TAKES GNCC OPENER
MSR’s Chris Borich took the first
step in taking his third consecutive
GNCC title by pulling down the win
at the 2011 GNCC opener in FL.
Just as he did so many times last
season, Chris would use a strong
last lap push to take the lead, pull
a gap and cross the finish well ahead of 2nd place. Running in
second position for the majority of the race, Chris was never more
than 2 seconds behind the leader when they came through the
scoring tower and found himself in the perfect position on the
5th and final lap. Taking over 1st position when the leader had
an unfortunate get-off, Chris would hammer for the remainder of
the lap and took the checkers by more the 20 seconds over his
nearest competitor.
FORSBERG SECOND AT GNCC OPENER
That’s right folks, MSR Darling of the dirt bike world Maria
Forsberg, would have to settle for 2nd place at the opening
round of the GNCC series. Coming by
the scoring barrels after the opening
lap, Maria would be in second position
just 2 seconds back and all over the
rear wheel of the leader. Taking the lead
on the next lap, she would stretch out
over a minute ahead of second place.
In putting down the hard laps she had,
Maria would fall victim to the heat and
humidity she’s not accustomed to living
in the Pacific Northwest, which would
relegate her to the runner up position.

MARKETING COORDINATOR
WHIBLEY, ASHBURN PODIUM OMA OPENER
With the start of the GNCC series a mere 3 weeks away, the MSR Am Pro
Yamaha boys hit the opening round of the
Eastern AMA Hare Scramble series. Grabbing
a 4th place start and keeping a solid pace,
Thad would be swapping positions within
the top 4 spots and waiting patiently for the
right time to strike. At just over the 2 hour
mark, the amateur riders are pulled off and
Thad knew that would mean clear sailing out
front with no lappers. Wanting to get to the
lead and in his own words, Thad “pinned it”,
got to the lead, took some deep breathes
and held on to take the checkers by more
than 30 seconds over 2nd position.
Not getting quite the start of his teammate,
Jordan Ashburn would have to make more
passes to find his way towards the front. Once
he found his way to the 3rd place position, the
lead 2 riders were long gone. Jordan would
keep plugging away putting in strong laps, but
would eventually cross the finish line nearly 6
minutes behind the leaders – which just goes
to show how important a good start is when the
track in one-lined and a rocky mess. All in all it
was a great day for the MSR Am Pro Yamaha
squad.
AM PRO YAMAHA GNCC OPENER
With all the prep and racing to get ready for the start of GNCC’s, it’s terrible
when things just don’t go your way. MSR’s Paul Whibley grabbed the
holeshot of the 3-hour afternoon race only to get pitched off the track and
narrowly miss a head-on with a tree, although clipping it with his elbow
and radiator. Doing extensive damage and losing quite a lot of fluid, Whibs
decided he needed to head into the pits before the motor would suffer
terminal damage and end his day. With the new radiator on it was time to
get going, but starting from beyond last place would mean having to deal
with lots of people and making sketchy passes in the dust. All said and
done, Paul was able to move ahead to 8th place and salvage some points
for the championship.
While not having the misfortune as early as Whibley, Thad Duvall would be
a front runner for the first few laps until a miscue would force him to park his
machine after a disastrous fourth lap.
In his first GNCC outing with the MSR Am Pro Yamaha squad, Jordan
Ahsburn had a decent start to his day and came through after the first lap
in 5th place. While still trying to get used to the smaller 250 machine (Jordan
is used to the 450) he was just a little off the pace in the fast high-speed
pace of the FL sand and is looking forward to the more traditional type of
GNCC courses.

McRIDE’S WORLD
2011, what a ride this year has been so far. We are already 2
months into the year and it seems to get crazier and crazier as
time passes by. From the Supercross title race heating up to the
numerous shows and events that we have going on, finding time to
hit the slopes and even the river coming up, has been very hard. It
is all good through, let’s dive right into this weeks update:

SPRING PHOTO SHOOT
INDY 2011
It is hard to believe that the 2011
Dealer Expo in Indy is already
behind us. I would first like to
thank everyone who helped us out
in making this year’s event a great
success; all of our Reps, Tucker
Rocky employees and everyone
who stopped by the booth to
check out the new stuff.
The response that we got from our 2011 spring gear was awesome. Everyone
seems to really be into the direction that we are going with the brands and the new
collaboration with Skullcandy. I hope everyone was able to stop by the booth and
get some Skullcandy headphones as those thing we disappearing rather quickly.
Just incase you did not get a chance to stop by, we have a couple of new things
that we are going to attach to our spring product line this year.
First, our Skullcandy pants and jersey are going to have a 20% off coupon on them
to purchase some sweet Skullcandy swag. This is something that we have worked
out with Skullcandy to give an extra reward/incentive when you buy the gear. Not
to be left out, we have worked out a cool attachment to the Spring JS collection
with Red Bull. All of the Purple Haze pants are going to be coming with a Red Bull
energy shot and a couple of unique JS7 stickers. So make sure to check out the
gear when it comes in and help us get the word out!
Last week we put together a photo shoot of all
of our top freestyle riders and a couple of our
amateur hotshots in the A class this year. Todd
Potter, Myles Richmond, Mike Mason, Chris
Plouffe, Tyler Bereman and Brian Sjogren
were able to come out for our festive shoot.
We had the opportunity to head down to Todd
Potter’s house and get some crazy photos that
we are planning on using in up coming ad’s as
well as updating our website with some pretty
sick images for you guys to download. Make
sure to be on the look out, as there will be more
of these images up here soon.

McRIDE’S WORLD - CONTINUED
JAMES WINNING AND CHAMPIONSHIP HUNT!
As most of you have seen, unless you have been under a rock, James has been getting back into the swing of things. Winning 3 of the
first 7 races so far this year has been awesome, but that is not to say that he has had some adversity too. As the gate dropped for the
final race at Anaheim in 2011, James grabbed the holeshot and never looked back. For 20 laps, Stewart continued to ride mistake free
and took the A2 win in dominating fashion. Then it was off to Houston.
The Houston Supercross race proved to be one James and us would rather forget. After a first corner crash, things looked to be heading
in the right direction as James had moved his way through the field. Then came the crash heard around the world, well maybe not,
that pretty much-ended James night and the relinquishment of the series points lead. Next we were on to sunny San Diego California,
right?
San Diego Supercross started out looking like it was going to be a nice day.
Then the skies opened up and the rain was a coming. With an abbreviated
practice schedule, Answer’s Stewart was still able to pull the fastest qualifying
lap time of the day and put himself in the drivers seat for the night’s events.
As the Main Event began, track conditions started to worsen. To make things
more difficult James had a disappointing start, where he rounded the first
corner just inside of the top ten. For the 15 laps of the race, Stewart pushed on
and worked his way through the mud up to second place. Everything looked
to be in place for James to come away from San Diego with a 2nd place when
an unfortunate stall in Lap 16 pushed him back two spots to fourth place.
Shortly after, James was able to take advantage of another rider’s mistake
and capture the final spot on the podium as well as gaining valuable points in the series point’s race. “The track was gnarly and I didn’t
have it tonight,” Stewart said. “I gave it my best, but my best just wasn’t good enough.”
Then came Atlanta. Enough said there. The stage was set for Daytona and it looked like James was ready for redemption.
As the gates dropped for the Main Event, Stewart quickly jumped out to the lead and looked like he had everything in the bag. However,
that all changed when Stewart made a misjudged an approach to a rhythm section that resulted in one of the hardest crashes I have
seen in some time. In true champion spirit, Stewart remounted and returned to the race, working his way from last to an incredible
ninth place finish, salvaging precious points in the race for the Championship. Stewart still maintains second place in the series with 173
points, now 23 points shy of the lead. Looks like we are in for a fight!
LATEST ADs & WEB BANNERS
Well, well, time for a change. We always want
to make sure that we are producing the up to
date and current material possible and these
latest creations from the crew are just that.
We have totally revamped our Web banner
and come up with a couple of design that are
pretty cool. With that we have also come up
with a new look to our ads that we are going
to be running in the next couple of months.
So make sure to be on the look out for these
items and let us know what you think on our
Facebook!
Well, that is what I have for this weeks adventure into the world of Answer. Stay tuned to our next update as I will have some photos
from a Region 7 ride out west here and some other cool things we have going on in our world.

the 35th annual GNC International Motocross
Finals are just around the corner and the GNCC

streak. The defending champion seems to be catching his stride
as the series heads back east. His teammate Brett Metcalfe is
continuing to have a solid and consistent rookie year on his factory
RM-Z450.
Metty had a rough night in Atlanta, but continues to
impress with this 450 skills
RD1 is consistently 1 step off the top of the box and
currently sits 5th in points after an early season DNF
Good enough for the #1? Plenty good for you!
Team27 sits a rather quite 12th in the 450 class points
