Have an 07YZ125 with exhaust valve pins that are loose. What’s the preferred repair technique to secure them? Fit a roll pin, loctite or I saw a repair kit on eBay, not sure if the replacement pins are the right diameter size though ?

Yea, used 5/16 roll pins. Heated valve in vice, crimped the roll pin with vice grips and tapped them in with hammer.

I think AC would be more durable and faster if he added strength training and put on 5+ lbs of muscle ... Tomac looks strong for his height and controls the bike better than the rest.

I use the CTI/Ossur neoprene sleeves, either 1/8 or 1/4” thick. I touch warm in summer, but good comfort

Very interested in your STIC experience, is it worth the cost/jetting work for the power gains?

Read an article on the dB snorkel from 2006 on off-road.com on an CR250, sounds promising, took 3-6 dB off, depending on the silencer (FMF or PC sp arrestor) but looks like the company is out of business now.

I’d need the same performance level of a modern mx bike, the land is sandy and hilly. Maybe a fc450 or Beta 300 could work, idk would need to hear them first...

Since my local unapproved riding area has come under recent noise sensitivity by nearby neighbors, I’m looking for quieter replacements for my 125 and 250f. Outside of an Alta, which would work, but am concerned about parts support and availability. ... more »

Good cheap advice. I'd tighten the swingarm bolt first though. That is the only mount that has bearings involved and I assume that would line up best if tighten first. Other theories welcome.
