If you've ever wondered about the seats on motocrossers, Transworld Motocross explains in a How To that much time is spent in a standing position by riders in an effort to reduce the impact of the shock to their knees. Due to this fact, comfort was not one of the objectives in the design of the long, flat seat; instead it serves the purpose of allowing riders to quickly shift their weight when rounding corners to provide more traction.

Transworld Motocross also covers the history of the sport in reviews of current motocross machines. By reading Transworld Motocross you could learn that Yamaha introduced the first "modern" four-stroke in the form of the "standard" 450cc machine which had replaced the YZ426F and the YZ400F before that. In quick succession, other manufacturers began to reduce emphasis on 250cc two-stroke bikes. As technology got better, the newer 450cc machines were even more powerful than their two-stroke equivalents; this made the latter even less popular. The four-stroke revolution continued with the ongoing competitions between 250cc four-stroke machines and 125cc two-strokes. One again, following the tide, manufacturers were prompt to promote these machines against their 125cc two-stroke equivalents. Honda launched the CRF150 in the 2006 summer to compete in the 85cc class. This caused the sanctioning bodies to make even more changes in the rules which did not go well with the fans of two-strokes.

Transworld Motocross specializes in getting that type of unique historical perspective on what is occurring in the sport today and that is one of the main reasons why it has become such a reader newsstand and subscription favorite.
