Honestly, it's probably the same problem Prado had. Chase will just deal with it better. And how can you compare Chases Kawi setup to Eli's KTM?
I would start by removing the plow so he can turn.
The first few things that are glaringly obvious are:
1. They need to take 1/4 psi out of the rear shock.
2. The sag needs to be at 101.5mm for hold up when exiting sector 3 of a corner.
3. He needs to go to a stock clutch lever and an ASV front brake lever. That set up will assist in balancing the chassis on banana transitions in long rhythm lanes.
The bike is too small underneath him . He needs larger diameter wheels. ( Make them 3" bigger like they did to mountain bikes). Add taller forks and a longer swingarm. And make him practice with a bald front tire so he gets used to no traction up front.

He’s TRANSitioning too many times.
The answer is as obvious as the nose on his face; can't believe no one has mentioned it by now -
He needs to add one tooth to the rear sprocket.
You're welcome.
Think the biggest problem is the nut between the bars and the seat.
Have you ever been around a bike dude? 101.5 is laughable. 101 is where it's at.
I would concur on the levers however.
Problem solved
Edit: and change the number to 23
It ain't got no gas in it.
He should run stock suspension with MXA clicker settings
He said it feels like his Honda. Well, he kept washing the front on it too. Hunta and Jett don't wash the front on their Hondas. Hunta gave away the secret a few weeks ago. You gots to extrapolate, boy. Pay contention!
Green frame paint and different durometer motor mounts to smooth things out a bit. To fix his front end woes, a pinch less sag, raise the fork tubes a CH, roll the bars forward 1 degree, add 1/4" more foam in the seat, 11-1/2 psi in the front tire, eat a double burger before each moto and add a yellow front fender to make him "think" it corners better.
I believe this is completely a joke.
Lol, I'm aware.. as was I. 👍
I know these guys are incredibly talented and push the bike to places I couldn't even imagine. But I also think sometimes they overthink things and get hung up on details so small... hence the joking about the levers and .5 mm sag.
He’s riding perfect but the bike is too slow per lap. Make the bike faster per lap and make the bike faster per race. If the bike was like 1.5 seconds per lap faster that’s 30 seconds per race and before you know it we’re back baby…we’re so back
Edit: why not bump it up to 2 seconds per lap faster even…just a thought….
That gearing only works if you wear an orange helmet.
And add one tooth to the rear sprocket...
Pit Row
I'd switch powerband colors until he finds the best one for him 🤟
I think Chase is looking for this:
He keeps talking about feelings on different bikes, this should make him happy
Needs to add between 6 and 9 psi to the front tyre pressure.
Podcast said Kawi haven’t change the bike in 30 years so pretty sure it has an Answer Roost Boost. Everyone else is using factory ECU’s so that would explain the bad starts. If they can get him a power commander he should be back up front.
Probably all in his head. There is nothing wrong with any of the bikes. I used to struggle jumping between my KX125cc and KX250cc when racing different motos. Same Pro Circuit suspension, same year bike, same bars, hard seat foam, and Bridgestone tires. Maybe Chase Sexton should just try Bridgestone Battlecross tires?
Looks to me like his air filter is one size too small. I've also noticed some lateral movement in his piston when he skims the whoops. The cable housing in his clutch is too stiff, as well.
a CH? Too vague. What color? Red vs Brown vs Black make a big difference!
Funny stuff…. But I actually opened this up to see what kind of bike setup guys we had here.
I found we had the comedian kind. Not what I was expecting. Carry on and please downvote me.
He needs to buy Mitch a truckload of sod and a Marie Callender's pie.
They didn't tell him the real meaning of "Team Green" - they switched to environmentally friendly blinker fluid.
Everyone knows that stuff will gum up the splitzer valve.
Need to change it out for the good stuff, run it through the gears and when that baby hits 88 mph... you're gonna see some serious bleep.
Just make sure the collar and the cuffs match. 👍
