5/1/2024 1:15pm If you have decided to sell it and try something new, don't let me disuade you. But...I have the same bike and felt the same about it till I put in a KYB spring kit and had the shock revalved to match the spring needed for my weight at 220 lbs. Before it was harsh and handled poorly. I believe...

3/31/2024 3:53pm Possibly the wrong model of battery. I just put in a firepower and it lined up just fine.

3/23/2024 6:27pm Well according to RMATV it is an M6 washer. Their oil change kit includes a M10 and M6 crush washer for the two drain plugs. They sell a 10 pack of M6 washers for $5.

3/23/2024 4:06pm Yeah man good call. It's just a simple washer, so a bulk pack would be great to find.

3/23/2024 3:45pm No I haven't checked with a local dealer yet. I usually grab stuff off on RMATV. I am talking about the smaller of the two oil drain bolts, the one just up from the shift lever on the crankcase cover. The manual calls it "Engine Oil Drain Bolt (Oil Tank)". Are you saying it is the same size as the...

3/23/2024 2:51pm Does anyone know the size of the smaller drain bolt crush washer located on the crank case cover? OEM is $8 plus shipping. I'd imagine I could get something comparable at the hardware store for much cheaper.

2/25/2024 5:14pm Yes the Guts wide seat foam is a game changer for this bike. Just get it already and your butt will thank you.

2/7/2024 9:12pm I have a 22 350 and now this 24 450. I am a slow vet guy and I think the 450 is much easier to ride. The 350 is great, but the 450 has better suspension and you can adjust the power on the app to your liking. You can't make it a 350, but you can tame the hit...

12/14/2023 3:30pm Yes it is! I’m only about 20 minutes north. We usually try to ride every Tuesday and Thursday we can. I always park back near the intermediate track. Do you ever make it out during the week?

12/11/2023 1:09pm They didn't have the winged seat version available yet when I ordered it, but if they did now I would recommend it. This bike is very slim up top and for me at 6'3 I would like there to be more for me to squeeze up around my knees when standing.

12/11/2023 7:52am I looked for one but could not find it. The tall guts foam added 25 mm and made a big difference for me.

11/6/2023 5:02pm I have had luck smoothing the power out by adding fuel to every position and reducing ignition in every position, but also adjusting the throttle % value on the map. Take a look at the maps on Keefer's site to see the throttle % value's he used in his maps and mirror those. My favorite so far is simple, just...

11/4/2023 6:36am My buddy started with that setting and worked his way down in the clamps and the sag to about the same as you. I started with about 2 mm in the clamps and 105 mm of sag. It felt pretty great for me right away. Was more comfortable than my 22 GG 350 with KYB's in about half of a...

Hey, so today I actually had a chance to test ECUs and maps with Twisted today! Backstory, Monday I rode Pala and tried GET and Stock with a few maps. I liked the Smooth Linear the most but I’m still having a hard time taming the bike down to feel comfortable. Enjoying the bike, just not confident because of all the power if I whiskey. Tuesday(Today), I started the day on GET because that’s where I ended the previous day. The GET map had low engine braking but still pretty torquey for me. I needed to ride it cautiously as...

1/15/2023 3:30am Went up shock spring to set for my weight. Went in on rebound to compensate for heavier spring. Before going in on rebound the shock would kick out badly because the spring was overpowering the valving. I am sure a good revalve would improve the air, but it’s still air. On average I have to adjust the air pressure 3-4...

1/14/2023 8:33pm I have the 22 MC350 and have been struggling with harshness in forks on landings and breaking bumps. I have tried multiple pressures, clicker settings, and bleed between each moto. I tried my buddies 450 with KYB conversion and needless to say, I instantly put in an order for the spring conversion. I had 2 buddies ride it and they...

1/7/2023 3:55am I started on map 1 because I was just getting back into riding. Around 10 hours I went to map 2 and liked it more. Around 15 hours I made all the improvements and like the strongest/least engine breaking map on the Twisted Vortex. As you get more ride time you will find it easier to ride with more throttle...

1/6/2023 5:56pm Hey I went throught this process a couple months ago. Yes the canisters are the same except Gas Gas now has the baffle on the 350 and 450. Otherwise the same. The MC250F does NOT have the baffle. I bought an oem MC250F slip-on on ebay for cheap and put that on my MC350F. That combined with opening up the...
