I bet there is about 60 riders that would beg to differ.

Haha Not sure where you are getting this from but, realistically there's no money racing motorcycles unless you are top 5 in supercross there's a handful off different off road riders but other than that the most of those guys are funded by their families or out of their own pockets. Most sponsors have cut their programs almost in half. If you aren't winning you aren't making any money. Barely making 300 bucks to make a night show is ridiculous. Free bikes are hard to come by...Not sure where you live but all of us who used to make money riding motorcycles have had to get real jobs now

What titles have you won? Just curious, making it sound like you were a big shot.

Id like to add also, have you seen some of there lifestyles? They are making plenty of money. I rode at the short farm roughly a year ago. Andrew short has never been a winner, he had all kinds of shit. Hes not hurting. Trust me.

As I said the top guys get paid a lot after that you don't make hardly anything aside from being on a actual team even then there's quite a few that don't get paid salary/ride for next to nothing.
Never said I was a big shot. Also see their life styles since I do live in the same area where the majority of all the factory guys ride on the daily since the test tracks are only 15 mins away. As far as I can say most of the 10th-100 guys I know are living off their parents wallets that is for sure. But hey I don't know anything haha if you want to make money riding do freestyle.

There's your break down after 2 bikes, parts, travel, entry, pro license, mechanic, misc.. With out a factory team or a decently big team paying for all this, the majority of the dudes pay for this stuff out of pocket. Those numbers greatly outnumber those winning possibilities
