DUDE! Thats a Sick ride!!! Congratulations! Two smokes rule!
thanks Paul! early days, but all indications are good!DUDE! Thats a Sick ride!!! Congratulations! Two smokes rule!
Thanks Chris. It's early days, but the bike feels right for the type of riding we do. We rode lots of trails on saturday that had snow drifts, past the axles. They were already run in by us or by someone else. What blows me away is how easy it is to balance in those situations. Very trackable motor too!That's a great bike Greg. I rode a 2013 Beta 300 back to back with my KTM 300. Way more tractable. In fact, all the way up to last year or so that same 300RR was entered in the KOM and finished with no breakdowns. Also was entered in the 24 hour at Glen Helen with no issues.
You made a very good purchase. The KTM300's are nothing but huge money pits when ridden in extreme conditions.
wait till you put all your gear on. Static sag should be around the 30mm mark. Rider sag around 100mm.im 6'2" at 260 lbs, the honda crf 450x springs seem ok at my skill level …. I need to lose 60 .
Do yourself a favor and get used to using the metric system. It makes measuring much easier on motorcycles. Proper spring rates will go a long way to a great handling machine.thanks for the reminder about sag. as I play with this bike( crf 450 x so I don't confuse other readers of this ) and make adjustments (a little at a time ) it is on the list to do . have to get me a metric tape , all mine are in English..... 25mm about 1 inch I think so 30mm is 1 and a quarter inches ,maybe …. napoleons revenge....
As long as he doesn't notice any of the pages stuck together......so im feeding the neighbors dogs while they are out of town, his issue of dirt bike magazine comes in the mail. is it wrong to read his magazine before he gets to? it is the issue dedicated to 300 2 strokes , beta xtrainer sounds like the bike I should have bought.... oh well , maybe next year … the honda will have to serve . I confess, I read it.
Now that is just wrong. Wrecker Checker should this porn post be locked?As long as he doesn't notice any of the pages stuck together......
