motocross Introduction
Motocross, also abbreviated as MX, is the combination from the words ¡°Motorcycle¡± and ¡°Cross Country¡±.
The motorcycles used in the motocross races are lightweight and powered by two stroke or four stroke engines. The engines are highly tuned with absorbent suspension designed to deal with the shock of heavy landings, and short gearing designed for swift acceleration rather than high top speed.
Many MX racers begin when they're young, and grow up in the sport as a family activity. But it is not the rule and if you like, you can start at any age, especially for enthusiastic trail rider, or those who love riding dirt bikes or racing when they are young.
Motorcross racing is one of the most appealing forms of motorsport, with riders performing seemingly death defying leaps, turns visibly at the edge of traction, and the effort of riders clearly visible as the move their bodies around their motorcycles to balance the bikes for maximum speed.
Capitalising on this appeal, a variant called "Supercross" has evolved, held on tighter tracks in sports stadiums with more, even higher jumps.

Motocross Machines
To bring the weight down to an acceptable level (usually 200 to 250 lbs for full-size machines), items such as speedometers, lights, kickstands, electric starters, etc. are omitted. Lightweight materials such as aluminium and magnesium are commonly used as original equipment from the factory or sold in the after-market.
The bikes are motocross bikes modified specifically for FMX use. Along with standard suspension and motor tuning the bikes will also have many aftermarket parts to lower weight and improve performance. Riders will often shave down the seat foam to give a wider range of motion.
