Is anyone added a tooth to the rear sprocket? I am SE, most tracks are not uber long, kinda tight, thinking of adding a tooth to get more out of 3rd but want some input if anyone has?

I have a luxon 22/24mm gen 3 on order and will update once it comes in. I am an old guy now, and want to try the 24mm offset. I have spoke to a few guys who swear by the 23.5 offset from (i think ride engineering) I also wanted the bar clamp options so I can play with positions.

My 23 350 has stalled 2 times in mid air. I wonder if this has to do with higher outside temps and running temps. Never did this until friday, was really hot, mid day, cut out twice over jump, not at take off, mid air, did not touch brake etc. I am an old man, first 4 stroke, they did...

Comet, muriatic acid, blow torch for heavy mud, gotta burn that mud off. then complete wire brush everything. I prefer to use a drill with a wire wheel. once that is all completed I like to fill the exhaust with water so at start up it spits the water out real fast, gets the inside of the exhaust clean. Or...

this is not an expensive sport, its honestly a hobby, so you pay to play. Get a sports car, go do a few track days, its 2 to 3k a weekend. honestly, this is not expensive, its just that the bulk of dirt bike guys are young, and have limited funds, so unless you have support, or family aiding in...

I had mine act strange, had to take to dealer and they reset, refreshed, whatever, and it now works correctly. They said something about it "losing" the data

I cannot see water from condensation, at the needed amount, causing that level of contamination. Maybe i am wrong, but your lawnmower, weedmaker, etc etc sit all year long, cold hot, rain shin etc Its prob water pump seal, seeping, and the level of water can drop a few millimeter and not look low and that is a lot of...

it does not take much water, like a few ounces to create a milk shake affect. Its got to come apart and inspect! unless there is some obscure thing that you are not sharing, (and I doubt you are not) its water, water, water and its got to be coming from the rad. there is no other place for it...

my neighbor was scolding his wife for never washing the car. She washed the car, with COMET! She had no clue, he came home and asked what happened, she said "What, I washed the car" He asked "with what!" She said "the good stuff that gets the scum out of the tub!" Spatter paint, could be worse!

It should be the first thing you do to a bike! I see people pay 1k for an exhaust, then 250 for customer stickers, then ti bolts, seat covers, etc. Suspension is the 1#, most important part of the cycle. Then get the other fun things. As for the cost, I am shocked its not more.

wait until you ride it, your eyes are going to pop out of your head. we did not have anything like these bikes, back in the days. They are amazing, and the tech is so far ahead of what you first imagine when you jump on it. Congrats!

Your brain is not part of your body.lol It still thinks you are stronger than you are, look better than you do, and fit in when you really dont.lol so while we can dream about "the old days" We can still enjoy a part of it. and getting out, riding, meeting others who still love to ride and being apart...

I just went through this, and am still going through this, but 48, have not road or raced in 25 yrs. I bought a 350, spent the money to make it comfortable, was once an A rider, now just struggling to get my brain to realize my body is not 21 anymore. The skills are still there, but the stamina...

picking up bike tomorrow, somehow quick shift lost its programming, so they reprogrammed. so you can just turn it off. dealer said they can plug in computer and disable it. So I am guessing you can disable the TC as well, remove the switch and move on

We need to know if it is packing or too slow on rebound. on the mx track, open you high speed all th way up and ride an area thats choppy and square edged, then turn it all the way in, do it again, then start moving it out. once the back feels more stable, work the fork, but start...

Mine stopped working. I never used it, went to push the button to mess with it and it won't turn on. Dealer said its a program error. So I am guessing you can have the dealer turn the feature off with the data controller and then dump the sensors and switch
