Thanks to those who replied. I was away for a couple weeks and just getting back to this. I currently have a RaceTech 5.4kg spring on the bike. I have put on weight since then RaceTech actually recommends a 5.6kg (Novice, prefer soft, 6'3+) My question is, would the difference in this spring rate be enough to adversely affect the...
Is a full spring conversion worth it over a single side spring setup for a vet C level rider ('22 MC350F)? I am having a difficult time justifying the expense of the dual spring conversion, like a 6500 drop-in or KYB conversion. I have read some people say that the weight of the single sided spring can make the bike...

down_under Started a new thread KX Rideology App

It has been talked about that the Kawasaki Rideology app seems like a half-assed effort for Kawasaki to say they offer something comparable to Yamaha and KTM. But it seems to pale in comparison in terms of how noticeable the effects are. My question is, do we think the current iteration of the app is capable of getting more out...

Wanted to resurface this thread since it has been a couple of months to see if there are any additional opinions and experiences users are able to share now that more riders have likely had time on the new KX450.

Hey Moto-Brothers, I am at a cross roads. Either buy a vortex ecu and spring conversion for my 350 sxf or purchase a '24 kx450. I am 220lbs, 6'2, 45 year old vet. I have a 52 tooth rear on the 350 now. I still want more bottom-end. I have read lots of threads with guys saying a Vortex makes...

down_under Started a new thread Black Ignition Cover for GG MC350F

7/12/2023 5:06am
Does anyone know where I can find a black ignition cover for an MC350F? Not looking for the protective plastic covers that goes over top, but a full aluminum cover in black, like the new '23 KTM's for example. I have seen them a on a couple bikes MC's, and another in this example from a recent MXA bike build...

Thanks guys. Thoughts on being able to open up the MC250 to give a more similar feel to the KX? Lowered foot pegs, taller bars and taller seat? I have been seriously considering the MC350 as well for more then the 250 has to offer at 220 lbs a bit concerned the mc350 would be a better option then the...

I am looking to purchase either of these bikes, 2021+. I have sat on both but have not ridden both. Does anyone have experience on which of these two would have better ergonomics and be a better fit for a 6'3 tall rider? From what I have gathered, both have a different feel but the opinions seem split based on...

down_under Started a new thread Softer Seat Foam?

4/28/2023 5:27am
I am a vet rider. I find myself sitting more now than I used to or should be. I just purchased a GG MC250f and the seat is pretty stiff compared to the previous 2021 KX250f. Not certain it is down to use more so than just overall stiffer foam. Is there any real detriment to going with softer seat...

What an awesome group of dudes! And girls. The feedback and opinions have given me a lot to digest and think about, so thank you to all those have responded so far! I realize this question is going to be kind of buried but before I start a new post figured I would ask here first. Deviating a little bit...
Thanks a lot for all of the replies so far guys. It's really appreciated and has given me additional points of consideration! Almost making me indecisive now and second thinking my original path Smile A couple questions with respect to 450's. Maybe better suited to a dedicated topic but I will ask here first. If I were to opt for...
