Dirt231 Added a reply to 18 rmz 450 upper fork tube worn through in side coating
9/22/2020 7:53am Sound like you had your forks binding. Proper procedure is slide axle in, tighten pinch bolts on that side, put axle nut on and torque, torque pinch bolts on nut side, loosen pinch bolts from step one, take bike off stand and put front wheel against wall or block and compress forks( can also leave on stand and spin front...

9/22/2020 6:00am 2011-2019 are the showa sff forks...2011-2012 are gen 1 and 13-19 are gen 2. I have a 2015 kx250f and honestly think the fork sucks. PC shows triples work from 2006-2012 so I'd assume stock clamps would, just offsets changed with frames. (2011 being 22.5 which is fine) I'd look for 2008-2010 conventional forks with the axle.

9/15/2020 4:05am Thats a kawi thing, when they're real cold they wont rev out like that, blip the throttle and it will rev out. I personally choke, start, let run till it does the rev out, choke off, wait for radiators to get warm, take off.

9/9/2020 11:11am Track is awesome and has good dirt/sand combo with a good prep. Not at national level, pros would destroy that track with like 1:30 or less lap times. They would have to put back in the old back section and part of the kids track to be enough for a national. 250 C can clear everything. Wednesday practice is great...

6/26/2020 8:42am Looking for guys who have a 2020 kx250 and see what they feel. Weigh in at 185lb...covid hasnt helped in this dept. anyways.

Dirt231 Started a new thread Amateur Classes at the nationals
6/19/2020 11:43pm Been wanting to race at Redbud and Ironman that way I can say I've rode both tracks. Was just curious on the classes. Is 25+ basically A class? There is no 25+B/C on the list so i can only assume its "A". Also anyone have any experience with riding C or B there? Is C like filled with squirrely dudes...

6/10/2020 6:20pm Don't buy a 19' kx250. The sff forks are shit. Go pick up a 20 kx250 I got one in march for less than 6k out the door. Dealers are full of shit on prices one will tell you 7400 and another will tell you 5900 for same bike so call around. Worse you will have to do with the...

4/27/2020 9:50am That should come out on the right side. Pretty sure case doesn't have to be split to pull shifter shaft out

Dirt231 Added a reply to Kx250f fork swap
3/18/2020 2:45pm I would think the same thing forks didn't change. I just know with within kawi they kept alot the same so like same front axle means lugs stayed the same. I will tell you guys I picked up a 2020 for $5687 OTD may be worth trading her in or buying one and selling the other.... especially with a 17-19...
Dirt231 Added a reply to Kx250f fork swap
3/18/2020 12:08pm 11-19 kx250f are Sff- spring. 05-10 kx250f are showa twin chamber. I think kx450 was kyb up till 12. 13/14 psf I believe 15-18 went sff-air. I personally put 09 triples/forks on my 15 (same as 16). Front wheels/axel are the same from 09-15/16 for sure. Get 08-10 showa with triples or get a pair of aftermarket 22mm offset for...

3/8/2020 5:59am So while you all are wrapped up in the one guys wife buying him a bike. Went down to southern Illinois yesterday got a 2020 kx250 $5687 OTD. No BS or hassle just drove down, paperwork and loaded it up.
Dirt231 Added a reply to 2020 kx250....OTD prices.
3/7/2020 8:05am Not entirely, I don't mine kicking my bike, kawi has been great except for the shit SSF spring forks. So having good kyb suspension and the great pricing I can deal a couple years and let the electric start and hydro get perfected on the 250 say 2022 or so.
