Paul Carpenter’s Monster Energy/Cernic’s/Kawasaki mechanic Glenn Hobson stopped by the TransWorld Motocross photo studio last week to give us a closer look at his pride and joy.

According to Carpenter's mechanic Glenn Hobson, Pauly is super-hard on rear brakes. Hobson vents the rear brake piston by drilling several small holes in it to help dissipate heat.

Fuch’s huh? First time I’ve seen that as a sponsor of an American Team/Team in an American Series.
Typically they stay to the Road stuff.

hey swap, since u guys seem to actually check the posts(most dont). i was wondering what the Bikes of our top stars(450 stewart/reed and 250 dungey etc) weigh? everyone talks power but the weight differences could be HUGE differences in handling and way suspension works.. Just have always been curious and have never seen anything since the last Factory 125 2-stroke of Brett Metcalfe..
thanks in advance #:)

Sweet Ride Pauly! I love my NY riders!

Just for the record suzuki94, Paul Carpenter is from Ithaca, NY… not Canada. He may have won the Canadian series championship, but that doesn’t make him Canadian.
